About

A tactical switcher: pick the stronger of big‑tech (XLK) or a diversifier (KMLM). If both have been weak recently, make an aggressive semiconductor rebound bet (SOXL). Often holds just one fund and keeps the rest in cash.
NutHow it works
Every check, it looks back 10 trading days. If both tech (XLK) and a diversifier (KMLM) have been down over that span, it makes an aggressive rebound bet in semiconductors via SOXL (a very volatile 3× fund). Otherwise, it holds whichever of XLK or KMLM has the stronger recent price push (using a simple up‑vs‑down score called RSI). It usually ends up holding one fund at a time; any leftover sits in cash.
CheckmarkValue prop
Strategic tech/diversifier rotation with a cash buffer to complement an S&P 500 core. Aims to capture regime shifts and short-term momentum in volatile markets. Note: out-of-sample returns and risk lag the S&P; best used as a tactical sleeve, not core.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
