Positions overnight

Do you hold positions overnight?

 

Got some votes here--looking for more to get a good sample.

 

Yes. There should be another choice between 2 and 3, ie., the 35-65% range.

 

Yes that may have been better, although almost no one would probably be at 50%, so we should get a good idea. Poll results so far are very interesting.

 

This poll is very interesting in that the results are exactly the opposite from what I had inferred from reading many of the posts here. Is it that the silent majority are that much different than the loud minority?

 

Are you asking if I hold the majority of my positions overnight or if the majority of the time I hold at least one position overnight? Could be worded a little mores specifically.

 

Do you hold the majority of trades overnight.

 

I hold the majority of my futures positions for more than a year.

Really?

 

I definitely agree. I chose that I rarely hold overnight positions but it depends on a few factors, trends in the market for that day and past couple, margin requirements, my gut, etc....
