    It's not really 50/50 there's about 200 long positions and 80 short positions. I think that ratio gives me a good idea of the market conditions. The more shorts the weaker the market. Since we're in a relatively strong market that ratio makes some sense.

    No super short term tracking
    I wanted to see what the forum thinks of a long short trading strategy.

    Thanks for the encouragement. I've been investing since I was 5. Hold a Master's and Bachelor's degree in Finance, worked for Merrill, PE firms, OTC trader, NW Mutual and about to start at another big five bank.

    I truly appreciate the encouragement, but people might be surprised from time to time on this forum.

    And you're asking questions like that? No offense, but that's scary.

    Then there are public school teachers who cannot pass an 8th grade math test. Which is more scary?

    I didn't ask any questions. Just responding to others.

    Thanks for the post. Good luck to you.

    Apparently your grammar isn't even 8th grade level, either. Please tell me you don't actually manage money?
