@tradeLab, I have a question …your trade quantity varies alot is there a specific amount of cash that you allocate to each trade? If not how do you come up with the number of shares/contract? ---

I place 5 trades each Monday (usually close out 5, and open 5 new ones, sometimes hold/carry existing stock for another week, etc.). Assuming capital of $50k, each stock is allocated $10k. ---

Is there any difference between the 3 strategies? ---

All three strategies are different, with specific fundamental screening and ranking rules. You can see more details under ‘description’ for each strategy. Also note, SPX1 and SPX2 only trade S&P stocks (liquidity), while VM trades all NYSE/NASD stocks above MCap $50m. I rarely use leverage (if I do, no more than 2:1, but investors can determine their own risk/reward levels).
