Thank you! Same to you.There are couple of reasons.

1. I always keep 1 share of BLV, VTI, BIV, DBC, GLD, and TLT so that by using the “Manage Positions” options underneath the AutoTrade menu I can add additional money to any of these ETFs in any of the three accounts I have that AutoTrade my strategy. It also allows any sub to put some money aside into more conservative ETFs without having to open a second account.

2. The reason I may have 1 share of any other ETF is simply because I don’t want my trading record to be able to be seen by people who do not subscribe. Once someone subscribes they can see my trade history. The only ETF I do not keep one share of but still trade now is TVIX. It just degrades so fast that I can’t stand to watch it. Now there may be a period like now where 1 share of UPRO for example may drop 90% but that doesn’t bother me as much.
