Navigate to Analytics → Rebalance for systematic portfolio rebalancing.
Step 1 — Define Target Allocation:
Set your ideal portfolio allocation by sector, asset class, or individual position weight. For example:
- Technology: 35%
- Healthcare: 20%
- Financials: 15%
- Energy: 10%
- Cash: 20%
Step 2 — View Current Drift:
A comparison table shows:
| Sector/Asset | Target % | Current % | Drift | Status |
|---|
| Technology | 35% | 42% | +7% | 🔴 Overweight |
| Healthcare | 20% | 12% | –8% | 🟢 Underweight |
| Cash | 20% | 28% | +8% | 🔴 Overweight |
Step 3 — Review Trade Suggestions:
The tool calculates specific trades required to restore target allocation:
- “Sell 5 shares of NVDA ($4,250 proceeds)”
- “Buy 10 shares of JNJ ($1,580 cost)”
- “Buy 15 shares of XLV ($2,100 cost)”
Step 4 — Execute:
- Execute trades individually (click to open Trading Desk with order pre-filled)
- Execute all at once (batch execution with single confirmation)
Schedule monthly rebalancing reviews. Market movements naturally cause drift from target allocations. Regular rebalancing enforces discipline and prevents unintentional concentration risk.
