Do you actually let losses run, or do you ever take them?
If only 25% of my positions were in the black, that would really bug me :)

•@Alpalaka It depends. Sometimes I take losses (like with Bayer last year—a mistake), but usually only when I truly believe that something fundamental has changed for the worse.
As a rule, I take profits fairly quickly in increments—starting at 15%, 25%, and so on. I only let the “mines” run. That’s why, overall, my positions are more often in the red. It doesn’t bother me anymore!
