Episode notes
Use Smaller Positions And Longer Timeframes
- Reduce position size to give trades more room and lower stress when volatility hits.
- Use a larger timeframe so a smaller share count can absorb normal price swings.
Trim Winners Instead Of Waiting For Stops
- Sell into strength by trimming winners rather than waiting to be stopped out on the way down.
- Take partial profits so pullbacks hurt your portfolio less while you still participate if the run continues.
Hold Cash Briefly After Taking Profits
- Redeploy cash only when you find new setups; otherwise patiently hold cash after selling into strength.
- Short waits of weeks for a pullback are fine, you don't need to rush to be fully invested.
