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
