"What do you trade 1000 to 5000 shares of BRK.A at a time...<g>"

Hehe. I trade up to 10 A-s (A-s only trade in lots of 10) and usually more like a 100 B-s at a time. It depends on the spread between the two. When it is more than 2%, I trade the B-s. Most of my position is a result of heavy "averaging down" to about $47500 average which are not for sale (ok, maybe a 1/3 around $70k - hehe). However, I know it pretty well so often trade around the core.

PS. Bobby gives me a hard time, but I doubled down at about $45k and sold 1/2 between $58700 and $59900 on the way back up.
