I was doing my usual month end review to see what I could learn from past trades
Did on on the Z portfolio as well fwiw
of the YTD Z Portfolio gains of $337,000, $206,000 were from trades I did
40 trades in total or about 2 a week
average trade size of $50,000
average gain of 10.2%, or $5,150 per trade
17 trades were shorts, avg size of $38,800, gain of $129,600, avg gain was $7,623 or 19.7%
23 long trades, avg size of $58,900, gain $76,700, gain avg $3,334 or 5.6%
a total of 30 wins and 10 losses
the message here I guess that one should consider a mix of both long and short trades and that we can do very well with position trades in an non-leveraged account, under various market conditions |
