Echo5 — Systematic Weekly Portfolio

A paper-trading simulation of dollar-cost-averaging $250.00/week into a diversified, institutional-inspired portfolio — the kind of framework you can't access directly through the big multi-strategy and macro funds, rebuilt with low-cost ETFs and fractional shares. Every week an AI contributes fresh cash and allocates it across three sleeves: All-Weather (risk parity across asset classes), Multi-Strategy (liquid alts & factor tilts), and Concentrated Growth (high-conviction tech bets). No real money, no real brokerage.
