this is how I'm playing my positions to give you an idea how you can best improve your chances of success no matter what trades I pick I'm going to narrow my field normally I would never recommend can consolidate just to a few traits but if you do a strategically it's going to overall benefits you just because look at the Dow and the NASDAQ most of the market is down it's in the red that means the more spread it out you have it to left reward you going to see because you're always going to have those holdings that are losing all the others are gaining offset in your games my advise do you do diligence pick the trait that you want to enter strategically and I'm doing a three-step tear process and I'm going with options now my first date will be April 17th my next day it's going to be either June or July and then my last day is going to be in January and for every trade I enter I'm going to buy an option and each date hearing it so that I get to short-term returns with the high Delta and then my last two dates as a come closer the deltas going to rise which I'm going to see bigger increases in my returns and then as I first day pops and I see a really good bullish day I cash out my first holding from the closest date and then so on and so forth with the last two options factoring for every trade if you decide you can spend $200 on this one company then you split that by three now you have $66 to spend on each option Care on my different price points of it fits your budget that way you have your short-term returns as well as your long-term investment to see the biggest outside and if you're buying shares it works similar only invest a third of what you're willing to spend on one investment that way if you do take it down return every time the market drops you buy another 3rd average of price sound and then the next time the market drops you buy these last third average down further that way when you have a bullet run you can be seeing the green a lot faster and profit and twice as much I hope this helps you guys
