Dear team

I have a basic equity curve I need, which is essentially just buying bond and gold ETFs in certain ratios (I wont call it a 'system' as it is so basic):

TLT 20%
IEF 20%
EMB 30%
GLD 10%
MBB: 12.5%
LQD: 7.5%

I rebalance every 6 months.

Is there a way I can do this in WL? The rebalance is obviously basic, but can I choose size based on ticker?

Thanks team and all the best

Hi Rod,

It's easy to accomplish using the Position Options PosSizer from the MS123 PosSizer library.

Press the "Use .Tag" button and make sure that the "% Equity" option is activated. Look for a code sample in the Wiki page for lines to add to your Strategy to implement the sizing based on ticker.
