Terrible start to the day ended with a reasonably small losing day. EPAY, IMNR, LNUX and SCMR ran big against me. All 4 are medium term holds. Did manage to balance my portfolio today with longs. Feel significantly more comfortable in current market environment with a 50/50 split of longs and shorts.

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.
