The iShares Sector Rotation ETF Portfolio [ISHRSECT] is designed to identify major sector themes in the market place through the use of the Point & Figure relative strength tools. The portfolio's composition is based on relative strength and is applied by comparing the iShares inventory components to one another by means of point & figure relative strength analysis. The relative strength analysis is then aggregated using a relative strength "matrix" ranking process, and the number of holdings are then based on the highest realtive strength components within the inventory of holdings.

Be sure to check out the iShares DALI Organizer Tool which shows you which asset classes are emphasized in DALI and then provides you with at least one model per all asset classes. In addition, from this one link you can input a dollar amount and then allocate that money across the different models. The iShares DALI Organizer Tool will then automatically calculate exactly how many shares to buy and exactly what percentage that position represents in a portfolio. You can then export this information to excel to potentially interact with your trading system.
