New Long Setup 2023-11-30

Since early November, we have been maintaining a paper trading account via my Twitter page to test the various Minervini screens that were recently added to the platform. More on that in this article.

Meanwhile we have 9 open positions, the available cash is down to 9.92%.

If this new setup is triggered we will be 100% invested.

Please note that this is a virtual portfolio for purely educational purposes. Under no circumstances should these setups be considered investment advice. The intent of the papertrading account is purely to show how we arrive at these specific setups and how they can be used in an active trading strategy that focuses on position sizing and risk management.
