Diversification in Online Trading

 The importance of portfolio diversification. 


To have a diversified portfolio you should follow these rules:

  1. Spread your risk to increase your portfolio’s success.
  • Invest in assets that will react differently to the same market factors. 
    • For example, do not hold different travel industry related securities, as these assets have a high correlation. You can read about correlation here. This is not diversification. Holding highly correlated assets increases your risk.
    • Instead invest in different assets which are not correlated to each other geographically, industry base, type. For example have some tech ( Google, etc), travel (Airlines, Cruise lines, etc), Oil related (petroleum companies), medical (Vaccine, marijuana etc) and many other industries.
    • Consider investing in different categories like Cryptocurrencies, Stocks, Indexes, FOREX, EFTs and commodities.
  • Money management is an important part of diversification.
    • For example, if you have different assets which are not correlated but invested 90% of your portfolio in the Technology industry then your diversification is not perfect.
    • Try to introduce a limit for each category in your portfolio. 
    • Do not put all the eggs in one basket. Diversify your portfolio as much as you can.

Q-Stick Indicator

The QStick can generate trade signals based on signal-line ( I prefer 50% of the first swing after trend reversal) or zero-line crossovers. 

  • A descending QStick signals the price is closing lower than it opened, on average. 
  • An increasing in QStick indicator signals the price is closing higher than it opened, on average.
