DESCRIPTION:

Date updated:05-12-2007

This portfolio is designed for market participants who have an active trading approach with hold periods seldom exceeding 3-5 days and sometimes less than a day.

The objective is to incorporate stocks into the portfolio (both long and short positions) with high volatility to maximize returns while minimizing risks by the judicious use of stop losses(absolute and trailing).

Assuming a position size of $50,000 the loss is to be restricted to $300 (1R) or less with profits being taken in 50% increments at 1R, 2R and 3R levels.
