Our Fund Performance
We manage 2 funds. Fund A is a simplified partial mirror of Fund B. Fund A is tracked by Marketocracy, an online stock portfolio contest site. Fund A is using paper money. Fund B is using REAL money. Fund B's performance is much better, because A's commission is 5c per share, while B's is only $3 per trade. Fund A does not allow scalp trading or shorting. In B, we sometimes, trade 90% of the day volume of some stocks. However, B's biggest losses are from shorts which are not included in Fund A. What unique about my portfolio is that it constantly moves up, and never drops more than 15% from its all time high. Most pullbacks are less than 3%. Our projected return is 30% every 6 months and 80% over 12 months
