  2. Well, I'm specialized in molecular testing in cancer patients so FMI, BRLI, CGIX, MYGN, NEO.

    Personally, the main issue that this market is facing is whether these molecular testings are approved by insurance payers through CPT codes. IF it is approved, I think these companies will have a hike in revenue / collection activities.

  3. a bit of update on my portfolio:
    http://rapacapintro.com/account/accounts?acc=U1014585
    (benchmark is S&P500 index)

    YTD return: +53.39%
    Since 2012: +155.52%
    AUM: $120,930

    In June, I overweighted on high yield stocks while covering my option positions. I just don't like blue chips reporting earnings with less optimistic view than the prior year.

    universaller.... congrats! great job!
    Can I ask some questions?
    1. How many trades do you put (in average) a week/month?
    2. Do you use weeklys or monthlys or both?
    2. What is the maximum level of your capital at risk when you put all the trades?
    3. How many capital/margin do you allocate in each trade?

    Thx

  6. Thank you,

    1. Well, I would say I trade about 10 trades per week
    2. Monthly
    3. Not sure exactly how to calculate that
    4. Generally, 1% of total portfolio, but if I have a strong conviction, I put 2% of total portfolio

  9. a bit of update on my portfolio:
    http://rapacapintro.com/account/accounts?acc=U1014585
    (benchmark is S&P500 index)

    YTD return: +81.38%
    Since 2012: +202.12%
    AUM: $138,624.91

    I start taking long positions on blue chips while reducing high yields stocks, but still holding S&P puts just in case.

  10. a bit of update on my portfolio:
    http://rapacapintro.com/account/accounts?acc=U1014585
    (benchmark is S&P500 index)

    YTD return: +74.31%
    Since 2012: +190.29%
    AUM: $105,642.83

    I had to take out some cash to pay my income tax before Oct 15th, so my AUM decreased. Also, with the recent volatility on the market, I was hit badly so I'm down -1.8% for October after -4.2% for September.

    Right now, I have few positions but nothing large. As I need to focus on my startup, I'm planning to hold high yield stocks that have a decent chance to stay where it is now.
