Trading and LTBH are two totally different ballgames. You have to separate the two. And yes, in trading, you don't want to diversify. You want to specialize in a sector and how it trades.

kdavy, AMAT closed the gap at 49-50 and went back up. do you think we will close the gap at 44-45 anytime soon? the higher gap looks like some support. you mention your trades are 50/50 on wins/loses. how do you double your money then? your gains must return far more than the loses to double your money if half your trades are loses??? how many protective puts do you buy? one contract for every 100 shares long? in or out the money and short expiration or long expiration? thanks
