How often to rebalance is not a slam-dunk. There are some who favor very frequently, like every month or two, and others like Otar who favor every 4-5 years. The available models and analyses that I have read are far from definitive.
I hope to rebalance every two years or so within each bucket (e.g. among different types of bond holdings) and maybe every 4 years or so between buckets (swapping fixed and equity funds). Rebalancing "all along" might mean different things to different investors.
