About

A cash‑anchored portfolio: 55% in short‑term Treasuries, 45% rotates among staples (XLP), leveraged Nasdaq‑100 (QLD), or long Treasuries (TLT) using simple trend and “oversold” checks on XLP, QQQ, and SPY.
NutHow it works
55% sits in SHV (very short‑term US Treasuries; cash‑like). The other 45% moves via simple rules: - If consumer‑staples fund XLP is in a short uptrend (8‑day avg > 50‑day), buy XLP. - Else, if Nasdaq‑100 is very oversold (RSI<30 on QQQ; RSI is a 0–100 “heat” gauge), buy QLD (a 2x QQQ fund). - Else, if SPY > its 200‑day avg, buy QLD. - Else, buy long‑term Treasuries (TLT).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~13% with max drawdown ~7.6% and Calmar ~1.71, vs SPY’s larger losses. Low beta (~0.53) and Sharpe ~1.06 offer strong risk-adjusted upside with a cash anchor and trend signals that protect capital.

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.
