Today started out bad and kept getting worse through out the day as the NAZ rallied and ended on the highs at a critical 2300 level.
Very tough environment for shorting right now.
Also, just cant find longs that dont appear overvalued.
Really want to balance my portfolio much more.

The link above mirrors my personal portfolio exactly.
On April 28, 2001 the portfolio was valued at 1.5 million
A full position represents 6% of portfolio or $100,000
At the end of each month, I dollar cost average 1/2 my profits into value mutual funds.
The portfolio is managed like a hedge fund. (a mix of value longs and overextended, overvalued shorts)
I try to limit my loses to 8-10% maximum and most of the time much smaller, based on a full position.

Many Happy Returns
Michail
