Reply Pt.2: I read one poster (on one of dabum's boards I think) that was suggesting that you keep whatever gains you have in a winning trade in stock.
Say you buy 1000 shares of CXTI and make 10%...You'd keep 100 shares and take your original funds back out. After a few trades like that you'd have a good sized position made up of "free" shares.
Do it with several different stocks and your portfolio would be made up of the profits from all of your winners and you would still have your original trading funds.
Sounds good in theory, but it kind of goes against everything that I do! That might be reason enough for me to try it.
I don't know about anyone else, but I always get the feeling that I'm doing (or not doing) something small like that, that could make a huge difference in my returns. Any thoughts from you (or anyone else) would be appreciated.
