Playing & Trading Strategy

50% is quite good ;-), but seriously.......

Posted by: srrichardson (a.k.a SCIFund) on Oct 11, 05:49 in response to websch01ar's post What do you consider a good dROI? In your blog post you...

DROI is more a way to compare investments, for example (ignoring commission):

You have H$1M to invest and you've narrowed down your choice to 2 stocks, both currently worth H$10 and you expect one to adjust to H$15 in 2 weeks and the other to adjust to H$30 in 10 weeks, the first stock has a higher dROI, but generates less profit than than the second, but in 2 weeks, you can take your H$1.5M and reinvest it.

The importance of dROI depends on your playing style, if you are day trading and jumping on stocks that are moving because of news, it isn't very important, but if you are only logging on once or twice a day then it is more important.

For a port your size you want to be looking at a mininum dROI of 1%, but as your port grows the minimum lowers as there simply aren't enough stocks with a 1% dROI!

I've posted some new columns on HSXsanity. This month, it's about ERC, the $250M limit for starbond TAGs and how to get along on the forums RogerMore Oct 10, 11:37

What do you consider a good dROI? In your blog post you made references but you never gave a range {nm} websch01ar Oct 11, 05:29

Awesome thanks! I had evaluated my port and found a 1.1 but did not have a basis to adjust... websch01ar Oct 11, 05:53

^^ what he said. Any droi above 1% is good, but obviously whether you take it depends on how big your port is, what risks you are taking, RogerMore Oct 11, 09:56

I have joined a couple leagues and am refreshing news sources. You can never have too much information. Thx! {nm} websch01ar Oct 11, 10:01

I am content with anything above 3%. {nm} tatoufan Oct 12, 01:31

hopefully something like this catches on. that can reduce the bad posting and bracketeering and so on {nm} islander Oct 11, 06:09

That would require controlling human nature and some of us have realized the futility of THAT. :) {nm} DTravel Oct 11, 10:51

Knowledge is power! {nm} tealfan Oct 11, 18:28
