AI Stock Picker Tutorial

AI Stock Picker is Alphio's weekly US stock rotation product. Each cycle, Alphio AI publishes 10 top stock picks and manages them through a rules-based weekly rebalance process.

Try the demo below:

Find it at: /ai-stock-picker — or, on the home page (Dashboard), click the AI Stock Pick card in the Copy Stock Signal row (web and app).

Included on Plus and above. It can also be bought as a standalone AI Stock Picker add-on, independent of your tier. Copy Trade also requires Plus and above — see Subscription tiers.

1. What it is​

AI Stock Picker is designed around a weekly Monday rebalance workflow.

Before each Monday open, the model produces a ranked top-10 stock list.

The core rules are simple:

  • Monday Open - buy the 10 top stocks, allocating 10% of funds to each
  • Weekly Rebalancing - on the next Monday, Alphio AI refreshes the top 10 list, keeps names that remain in the basket, sells names that dropped out, and buys new entries back to 10% target weights
  • Risk Control - every stock includes a mandatory stop-loss price to protect capital

2. Signal anatomy​

Each weekly pick set usually includes:

  • Symbol - the stock ticker
  • Entry Window - the Monday-open execution point for the refreshed basket
  • Stop-Loss Price - the mandatory risk boundary for that stock
  • Allocation - a target 10% position share within the basket
  • AI Rationale - a short explanation for why the name was selected

Unlike continuously updating scanners, AI Stock Picker is more like a weekly basket refresh. The list is published for Monday execution, then the portfolio is managed around that structure until the next rebalance.

3. Why it works differently​

AI Stock Picker is not trying to catch every intraday move.

Instead, it aims to create a disciplined weekly stock basket by:

  • concentrating the portfolio into the model's current top 10 names
  • keeping allocation mechanically equal at 10% per stock
  • rebalancing only once per week instead of churning every session
  • enforcing a stop-loss on every position to contain downside
  • letting existing winners stay in the basket if they still rank in the top 10

This makes it useful for users who want a repeatable weekly process rather than a continuous stream of new decisions.

4. How to use it​

You can follow the workflow in five simple steps:

  1. Check the refreshed list before Monday open. Review the new top 10 names and see which holdings stayed, dropped, or were newly added.
  2. Rebalance to target weights. At Monday open, size each active position to 10% of portfolio capital.
  3. Keep the basket during the week. The strategy is designed to hold the portfolio between rebalance points rather than exit every day.
  4. Honor the stop-loss. If a stock hits its mandatory stop-loss, exit it rather than waiting for the next rebalance.
  5. Repeat on the next Monday. Keep names that are still in the top 10, sell names that fell out, buy new entries, and normalize weights again.

If you would rather not rebalance by hand, click Copy Trade in the page header to mirror the weekly basket into a connected US stock broker account. Copy Trade requires Plus and above, and it is being opened to accounts gradually — if you don't see the button yet, follow the list manually. See Copy trading.

This workflow works best when you follow the basket systematically rather than manually second-guessing each weekly refresh.

5. Performance and review​

The product also provides strategy-level context so you can evaluate how the weekly basket has been behaving over time.

Typical panels include:

  • Strategy Performance - cumulative return versus the S&P 500
  • Strategy Stats - aggregated performance figures
  • Top P&L Symbols - recent names that drove outsized gains or losses

These sections help you understand whether the model's weekly top-10 rotation is actually producing useful alpha over time.

6. Final thoughts​

AI Stock Picker is best for users who want a clean, rules-based weekly routine: review the Monday list, rebalance into the top 10, respect the stop-losses, and repeat the process each week.

Its value comes from structure and consistency more than from constant trading activity.
