Yuki,
Your post was a powerful testimonial for focusing on trading a very
limited basket of stocks.
Powerful enough in fact that I'll start looking seriously at that
approach.
I know from past posts that you only trade the largest of stocks with
a high enough liquidity that your trades aren't even a 'blip on the
radar screen' where volume is concerned. I did a scan on Monday
against all U.S. stocks which had daily trading volume exceeding $50
mil U.S. and got over 300 issues.
What other insights might you be willing to share regarding drilling
down to a small number of issues to focus upon.
Regards,
Phsst
