The only real solution I can see is to hedge out your risk with options, or just hedge out your market risk by shorting X amount of the SPY or whatever bench mark is more appropriate.. If you cant do that and you cant short most of the stuff you listed it would sure be hard to be a market maker. Cou...

Here are some articles that show a different way to allocate your assets. Risk Parity Allocations. It is basically a way to allocate your assets based upon how risky an asset class is. http://www.bwater.com/PDFs/engineering_targeted_returns_and_risks_pmpt_060215.pdf https://content.putnam.com/panago...

I feel your pain. I come from a daytrading shop and it was hard getting away from being glued to the screen. I found it just took time to change my mentality. When a stock gets to my entry and exit points I am still a 5-min chart person but until it gets to those areas I don't worry about it anymore...

Mutual Fund Trading
I guess this is where to post this. Does anyone here trade mutual funds? I have been looking at it lately and so far have not come up with a ton of material. I have found a couple of websites and of course the Gil Blake article but other then that the info is quite scarce or more likely I am blind. ...

Untested System
Here is a system I thought up the other day as I was looking at the Valueline web site. Looking at the rankings chart here http://www.valueline.com/pdf/modelperf.pdf I think you could take a good long/short trend following system and combine them with the Vline ranks to get your universe of stocks. ...

Bagherra I dont know if this belongs on this thread (MODERATOR: It didn't so it was split to this new topic) but I will give you my answer. I love fundamentals but at the same time I realize that price is the ultimate factor. The economy, a stock, or a commodity might have the best or the worst fund...

I would lean towards emotionally stable. I have found that at least for me it is easier to work on ones intellectual ability then it is to change someones emotional control. I say this having worked with an all out nut for 3 years that is extremely bright but a total wack job. I also work with one g...

Personally I think that if your account is small that you can open up your risk parameters a bit. Of course doing this increases the chance of blowing up. When I say a bit though I mean a bit not a lot. I think if you are using 2% you could open it up to 4%-5%. On the other hand there is nothing wro...
