Quote from shortie:

you are talking about money managers (working with >50M I assume) and 20% is excellent for them. what about those with less capital what is considered excellent return for them?

I think it's the same. You can only make a high return with high risk... that is, either concentrating the position or using leverage.

Hello Gnome,

I am curious to know how big a role discretion plays in your trading style. If discretion does play a role, when do you usually use it?

Thanks

Congratulations on another successful year Gnome.

No questions for you, although I do wonder how you decided on your handle.

I hope you and your family are safe and happy this year and going forward.

Steve
