***** you wrote "What is your rational for buying only 3 positions?"
answer: My method of trading requires positions over time.
Why?
(1)Because I do not know where the final bottom will be. (2)And I do not know where the final 25% RETACE will be. (3) The only thing I know is that a the probability is high that a 25% RETRACE will happen
(4)At least has taken place 100% of the time SO FAR.
