Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about weekly portfolios, allocation, hedging, rebalancing and access to TradingAlgo Mosaic.

What is TradingAlgo Mosaic?

TradingAlgo Mosaic is a weekly portfolio research service that identifies the five stocks included in each model portfolio for every supported market.

Which stocks are included in the weekly model portfolio?

Every week, Mosaic publishes a model portfolio containing the five selected stocks for each market.

Why only five stocks?

Five carefully selected stocks provide a balance between concentration and diversification. The objective is to capture the characteristics of a market while keeping the portfolio simple and easy to manage.

How is the model allocation calculated?

The model portfolio assumes an equal-weight allocation across the five selected stocks. Investors remain responsible for determining whether this allocation is appropriate for their own circumstances.

Example: If the model portfolio is applied to USD 100,000 of capital, the equal-weight allocation would correspond to USD 20,000 for each of the five selected stocks.

How is hedging represented in the model?

For every weekly portfolio, TradingAlgo Mosaic provides a model hedge allocation to illustrate how overall market exposure can be represented in the research framework.

Example: If the model portfolio is applied to USD 100,000 of capital and the model hedge allocation is 10%, the model would allocate USD 90,000 equally across the five selected stocks (USD 18,000 per stock) and USD 10,000 to a hedge using the QQQ ETF.

When are model portfolios assumed to be implemented?

The model portfolios are constructed assuming implementation at the market open on the first trading day following the weekly publication of the report.

How much time does the weekly review take?

In most cases, about one hour per week is enough to review the new report and understand the latest weekly model portfolio updates.

How does the model rebalance?

TradingAlgo Mosaic model portfolios use weekly rebalancing based on the updated portfolio value.

Example: If the model portfolio starts with USD 100,000 and the portfolio value is USD 102,000 after one week, the following weekly model portfolio assumes a rebalance based on the updated USD 102,000 portfolio value. The model hedge allocation is then applied, and the remaining model capital is allocated equally across the five newly selected stocks.

TradingAlgo staff is available to answer questions about the weekly rebalancing process whenever needed.

What if one of the selected stocks gains 5% in one week?

The published model portfolio assumes no intra-week adjustments.

At the next scheduled weekly rebalance, the model portfolio returns to equal weighting across the five newly selected stocks.

Example: If one selected stock has grown to 23% of the model portfolio while the others are below 20%, the next scheduled rebalance would restore each selected stock to 20% of the equity portion of the model portfolio before applying any model hedge allocation.

Why were these stocks selected?

Each stock is selected using a systematic quantitative framework based on Trend, Stability, and Portfolio Contribution.

What changes from week to week?

Every report highlights which stocks have been added, removed, or retained, making it easier to review how the model portfolio has changed since the previous publication.

What if there are no changes this week?

If the model does not identify a reason to change the current portfolio, the weekly model portfolio remains unchanged and continues to consist of the same five securities.

What is the suggested minimum portfolio size?
