Micros - have worked out well because you can actually evaluate them. In real life, I work with small companies so I know how to cross examine CEO's and find out if they are BS ing. You can do that in micros but you can't in big corporate America. Some of the winners over the past couple of years are TVIN - .20 to $6, VSYS - .23 - $1.98, BSDM .50 - $2, and lots more. 40 stocks because that way I figure that you always have losers. If I lose on one totally but have another 20 bagger, that averages out to a 10 bagger, with an even investment. In reality, I've been able to weed most of the losers and kept the losses very low. It's more mathematical than genius or smart trading. I've been in the market since I was 13 and this has been the best approach by far. More like counting cards in black jack than being a great gambler if you know what I mean.
