Got it!! (I'm a little slow at times) Thanks you.

That's what I thought but how do you DCA into the 15 tickers making new highs on monday? Can you give me an example with ABC which made a new high on Friday? Is the entry is at open if it makes a new high? I don't understand (0.1 * beta) for an exit. What would be the exit for ABC? Is there a...

You know that Buffets number one rule is "Don't lose money"

@M.T. Valencia Do you have any type of risk control in place?

Why DCA? How?

Buy stocks that are increasing in price and have a method of controlling risk.

I wouldn't put my money in for any specific time period. I'd start putting money in when the trend changes and keep adding if it continued. I'd start taking profit if the trend changed to a down trend. Throwing cash at it just in case is gambling.

It is for me. I'm positive this year. (not much but that's better than the indexes) Win rate 36% but my win loss is 5.5 to 1 (YTD). Mainly in cash right now and losses are very small as I start with a small position and pyramid. A trend change will vary depending on how long I have held a...

I'm not sure how to compute a risk adjusted return. (you don't have to explain it, it'll be way over my head). I use return over max drawdown. It is said if you can't define your edge you don't have one. If someone ask me what my edge is I tell them, I buy stocks that are going up and hold...

Becasue that's not what Apple is good at. Peter Lynch called it deworsification.

No good reason to hold a losing stock that is in a down trend.

investment savings mutual fund. Currently pays over 3% Mostly Canadian TSE Stocks (home country bias) plus US stocks. Got burned a couple times when I tried it, so I don't bother. Just my own comfort level.

I'm a long only trader. In a down trending market I find somewhere to park cash that pays a little interest.
