After reading through some more materials in the learning center and a few other places, I’ve decided on a few things regarding my trading.
1. I will mostly invest based off of fundamental analysis but I will also try to time my trades based off of a macro view to make sure I’m going long or short when the market is poised to do the same.
2. My goal is to learn about trading and to seek returns of approximately 10% or perform in-line with the S&P500.
3. I’m going to try to make trades in sizes so that no one trade can blow up more than 2% of my entire portfolio. On Monday, I will be placing a trade to go short the S&P as a hedge against a couple long positions I will enter.
