What is Liquidity range rebalancing?

Changing a concentrated liquidity position's price bounds, often by removing liquidity and creating a new position with a different asset mix.

Why it matters on your return

A rebalance is a close and a reopen. Under the common position, closing the position is a disposal for the tokens returned, and reopening is a new acquisition, so each rebalance realizes the gain or loss on the old position and resets basis and holding period.

Example

You rebalance a position four times in a quarter. Each rebalance realizes the gain or loss on the tokens returned and starts a new position with a new basis. Four rebalances, four sets of disposals.

Does rebalancing reset my holding period?

Under the common position, yes. The new position is a new asset acquired on the rebalance date.
