A Dragon-Portfolio-inspired, five-bucket, rules-based ETF strategy that rotates into leaders, dials risk up or down, and adds crisis hedges. It uses stocks, bonds, gold/commodities, the US dollar, trend, and some leveraged/volatility ETFs to aim for all-weather results.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It splits your money across five buckets: 1) growth stocks, 2) bonds, 3) gold/commodities/US dollar, 4) trend/momentum, and 5) crash protection. It checks if prices are trending up or down, if they’ve run too hot or fallen fast, and which assets have led over the last few months. It then shifts toward what’s working, pulls back when things look shaky, and turns on hedges in selloffs. Some sleeves use 3x and volatility funds to amplify gains or defend in crises.
A Dragon-Portfolio-inspired, five-bucket, rules-based ETF strategy that rotates into leaders, dials risk up or down, and adds crisis hedges. It uses stocks, bonds, gold/commodities, the US dollar, trend, and some leveraged/volatility ETFs to aim for all-weather results.
Out-of-sample Dragon-Portfolio rotates to leaders with hedges, delivering higher risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ~1.56 vs 1.40), higher annualized return (26.8% vs 21.7%), and lower max drawdown (14.9% vs 18.8%), plus a stronger Calmar (~1.80).
The serpent represents times of growth and stability, the hawk times of change and volatility. And what do you get when you combine a serpent and a hawk? A dragon. This symphony is based on the Artemis Dragon Portfolio, which seeks to perform well both in times of growth and decline by balancing five high-level asset classes. We took some creative license in the implementation of this strategy to leverage the power of Composer and improve on the static ETF approaches currently available to retail investors. The symphony includes the #DEMAMO and #COMMO symphonies. This symphony was inspired by the Artemis Dragon Portfolio and developed by Composer. By choosing to trade this strategy, you understand that the strategy employs ETFs, and that you understand the associated risks of trading, holding, and costs associated with ETFs, and also leveraged ETFs. Before investing in ANY strategy containing an ETF, please review the relevant ETF prospectus.
