Introduction

Advisor Rebalancing allows you to make changes to your account's settings on the Account Settings page. You can tell Advisor Rebalancing how you'd like rebalances and trades to behave in the account, any restrictions the account should have, which custodian the account uses, and more.

Below, you'll find instructions for changing account settings in single or multiple accounts. Additionally, you have the option to create account templates where you establish a collection of account settings, which you can then apply to accounts.
