Chris, I so appreciate your willingness to share and for responding so quickly! Bear with me for one more multi-part question.
I'm wondering why so many strategies? It sort of makes my head spin to think about such a diverse trading plan as yours - though I'm sure after years of doing it it probably feels like second nature to you. But why so many strategies going on simultaneously (in other words, how and why did you "build" your trading plan/style to the way it exists now), and why not just focus on a few specific trades/set-ups with a bit larger size so there's less to manage and research?
I know you get what I mean, but to beat the question like a dead horse, another example is that one of my recent yoga clients, who was a hedge fund founder and CEO who sold to Blackrock a few years back for a few billion dollars, shared his trading advice. He suggested getting to know one specific niche (the example he gave was "banks" in the Pacific Northwest), and know it better than nearly everyone else in the business. It's overwhelmingly clear to me that you know your stuff; I'm just wondering how and why you wove your net so wide? Best, Lee
