NEW ABsolute Momentum Tool

The Portfolio Timing using Absolute Momentum Tool allows users to enter a list of symbols and corresponding weightings to construct a standard "Buy and Hold" portfolio and apply an absolute momentum filter to each fund in the portfolio. When a specific fund is performing more poorly than the 'Cash' fund chosen (typically this is a treasury bill rate, but RotationInvest.com allows users to define this as any fund they would like), then the 'Cash' fund is invested in instead of the poorly performing fund.

Fund:  The fund chosen here will be compared to each fund in the portfolio, if this fund is doing better (return %) over the period of time (see length below) then this fund will be invested in instead of the fund in the main portfolio.

Length:  The length defined here is the length of time to compare each fund in the portfolio to the 'Absolute Momentum Fund' chosen here.

For Example:
If 100 days is chosen as the length, IEF is the absolute momentum fund, and the portfolio is 60% SPY and 40% MDY:  If IEF has a higher % return over the past 100 days than SPY but not MDY - then IEF will take over 60% of the portfolio from SPY, so the allocation will be IEF 60% and MDY 40%.

Note:  These features are available in the Advanced Rotation Tool as well in the 'Absolute Momentum' section.
