Nayan, The Ursa Fund is a bit too risky for my tastes, as you can lose as much as you make. It is possible to make contributions each month for 5 months and have a crash and still lose, because you paid too much in earlier months. That is not the most likely scenario, but it is possible.

When I started doing 90/10, I started with $5000 in total capital in 1975. Now I have $5,100. <G> Seriously, you can employ 90/10 with about 3-5000 bucks, but you cannot use the thirds techniques. With $20,000, you can use thirds and some modest diversification. With $40,000, you can do the complete magilla.
