Splits money into 5 sleeves: growth stocks, bonds, commodities/gold/US dollar, a trend follower, and crash protection. It tilts using simple signals: trend (price vs recent average), a heat gauge called RSI (high=hot, low=washed‑out), recent drops, and volatility. In calm/rising markets it owns stocks (often tech; sometimes 3x funds). When overheated or falling fast, it adds hedges (VIX ETFs, Treasuries, gold, USD) or inverse funds. Leverage adds risk.

Out-of-sample, this Dragon-style strategy shows higher risk-adjusted return (Sharpe ~1.53 vs 1.40), higher annual return (25.9% vs 21.7%), and smaller drawdowns (14.3% vs 18.8%), with beta ~0.8 and stronger diversification vs the S&P 500.
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.
