Just depends. I would recommend Charlie Mungers almanac as a read. He makes a really good case for fewer well timed convicted trades. I've made far more money that way than anything else.
This has been something I tried this year. It worked well, but we've obviously been in a sweet market where everything works beautifully too.
The big shots on this board talk about how little cash they actually have invested in the market, and have for the past year or so. They've focused on specific plays and options instead, reducing risk of bagholding. I've tried to emulate those moves . . . there are a bunch of well-informed people on here. And following Gunderson's research and commentary has also done well for me this year.
