0 for 5

The portfolio has declined each of the last 5 trading days. So far this week, it fell 0.1 percent on Monday, 0.3 percent on Tuesday, and 0.5 percent today. This does not bode well for my goal of gaining for 40 percent for the year. Still, I remain optimistic. This is the time of year when microcaps can really fly. So who knows what can still happen before the end of the year.

Comments:
I'm down more than 3% this week. You win some, you lose some. We share at least one position - JOB - and I got the idea from your blog.
It's a love-hate relationship with low volume stocks (I also have IFUL, APLX, NMRX); they're great when they go up but make you miserable in a sell-off.
 
I am wondering if you had the same max 5% position allocation per pick in your portfolio when you started with a small size portfolio? Whats your recommendation for a max position size for a 30K portfolio? Thanks.
