Entering longer term systems

Mark:  As memory serves me, I think you have traded longer term systems.  If
so, I have a question.  In your opinion, when beginning a program of  longer
term trading, where signals are relatively infrequent, should one wait for a
new signal or rather enter existing trades if they are profitable (or maybe
unprofitable so as to minimize loss)?  If one waits for new signals,  the
benefits of diversification are sacrificed.   But if one just  jumps in,
other problems can occur.  What do you think?
Regards,  Jack.
