How do you select your individual positions?
Do you sell them again at the end of the year?

@Option-Wan-Kenobi You can call me 🙉 🤣
No, joking aside - my selection or decision to enter the market is strongly driven by the chart, even if many here dismiss technical analysis as reading coffee brew. I also look at the stocks fundamentally, but that's just a supplement to check whether there's a red flag for me.
I just let these portfolios run, it's a test compared to my main portfolio, where I tend to trade stocks in the short term (weeks to months). I can generate relatively more with less capital (~80k) and a corresponding turnover. I have around 200 trades per year.
But I often choose the same stocks as in these 100k portfolios, just on a shorter time horizon.

@TomTurboInvest All right, thanks!
How many shares do you invest in on average per year? And what average return have you achieved p.a. with the test portfolio?

@Option-Wan-Kenobi I described the return in the article above. In 2024 it was 8 - and if I look at my main portfolio, there are usually no more than 10 that I trade at the same time - as in my bio - 85% of the portfolio is rather conservative, and I trade with the remaining 15% - currently that's around 10 stocks.

@TomTurboInvest I completely overlooked it. Thanks for the interesting article!
