  • Healthcare: 20%
  • Financials: 15%
  • Energy: 10%
  • Cash: 20%
Step 2 — View Current Drift: A comparison table shows: 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)

Schedule monthly rebalancing reviews. Market movements naturally cause drift from target allocations. Regular rebalancing enforces discipline and prevents unintentional concentration risk.
