Generally I find that those that profess few positions are not willing to share them or how they manage them.

My trading account is usually 10 to 20 positions. Maybe the strangest one I have ever seen on SI.

Sometimes the best things are the simplest. Two pieces of graph paper have made a big difference for me. On one I weekly graph my gain / loss on a continuing basis against the SPX, NAZ, and RUT. Puts the daily gyrations in perspective.

On the other, on a daily basis, I graph my returns against the 12% minimum amount of return I would like to have for the year. Of course the top is open.

When I find myself with a big smile adding some TZA for a few days settles the little guys down, causing me to miss some gains at times, but also gives me cash to pyramid with when the market goes down. Essentially I am sitting out for a while without selling out.
