    I'm not surprised they have a conviction list. Who do you think owns the stocks on that list.
    And how does the list perform? Goldman puts the list out there for investors. They expect the list to outperform, but does it? Does Goldman have a get the Hell out list?

    Actually I've never heard of it. I don't pay much attention to the guys whos job it is to get me to buy stuff. I have a subscription to stockcharts, and right now a trial with IBD. And that's more info than I need.

    I am a trader, rather speculator. It's my main source of income. I didn't turn 500 bucks into a billion, but I'm not hurting. Not sure what you expect form ET but good luck with your conviction list.

    LOL!! This from a guy who is "Very disappointed by the ET crowd":rolleyes:

    Attacking the poster instead of debating the issue doesn't help the quality of the forum.

    I prefer to use 3% of capital, coz I feel that this figure is more safer from the least like 2% or more wider like 5%.

    All the books and courses on forex trading suggest that traders should use 2% of their capital per trade. But, I think this percentage can be adjusted according to the expertise and experience of the trader. Those who are new to trading should stick to the 2% rule to ensure minimum losses.
