Didn't know that about BABA. I made some nice money swing trading BABA over the last month. Just increased my long term position on the dip today as well. I'm bullish on BABA. I too just sold my MTUM shares @112 this week. Made a nice profit of about 9% but looking for something else as well. I know the basics about multifactorial funds but can you elaborate on their goals/difference from regular ETFs? Part of me wants to hedge against a market drop with an inverse play like SDOW.

IQ is still on a hell of a run. Since buying in 2 weeks ago, it has gone up 44%.
HUYA is also rising at a similar rate. |

I looked up SDOW out of curiosity. I don't get it ??? It's objective is to lose money and according to it's history it's done that quite well. average return of -37% last 10 years. |

The reason it’s lost so much money is because it does the opposite of the market and since we’ve had a historic run, it’s obviously gone down in value.

I'm unsure whether they'll be right and I can't wait 20 years to find out but I have put a small amount of my IRA into VFMF for now. I also, don't have the credentials to get hired as a quant at Renaissance or I'd be in their Medallion fund that returned 70% annually for two decades. |

How do you determine placing a Stop Loss order when entering a position? I would assume you don't do it for every investment.

I'm the wrong person to ask. I just realize I can afford to lose whatever percent on whatever investment so the more volatile the stock, I'm more prone to up the Trailing Stop Loss %age so I don't miss swings. I know I'm not going to watch it daily so I usually put trailing stop/limit orders on stocks I can.
