The 2% rule only applies to the amount of capital you risk on a given trade. It has nothing to do with the amount of capital you actually use in the trade. For example, if I have a $100,000 portfolio, then I can only risk 2,000 on each trade. If I follow WON's 8% stop-loss rule, then I can only invest 25,000 in each position because 8% * 25,000 = 2,000. That would allow you to buy a minimum of 4 stocks in any portfolio if you are going to use an 8% stop-loss on each one. However, if you use a smaller stop-loss point, you can risk more money. Let's say I find a trade in which I think a good stop-loss point is only 4% away from my entry. In that case, I could actually risk $50,000. Why? Because 4% * 50,000 = 2,000. So, the $2,000 figure remains constant. And how capital you invest in a given trade is determined by how far away your stop-loss point is. You can even risk all $100,000 if you find a stop-loss point that is only 2% away. If you buy a stock at 51 and you are willng to set a very tight stop loss at 50, you can theoretically risk all $100,000. Or if you want to set your stop loss even tighter at 50.50, then you could use all your margin and buy $200,000. Now, clearly this way will stop you out of many stocks with small losses, but it gives you a concrete way to measure risk on each trade. Of course, no matter how careful you are with stop-loss points, the stock can always gap sharply against you and you could lose much more than you planned. Bottom line, you can invest as much of your capital as you want, just so long as you limit your RISK on each trade to 2%. Hope that helps. Dave Tomas wrote: One comment on the 2% comment. The whole idea using CS is to win big when you are right, as stated by WON. So, with only an investment of 2%, how do you win BIG even if the one stock went up 100%? Of course, you can pyramid up. But if you do that then that stock/investment will be more then 2% of your portfolio. I understand that capital preservation is very important, but I 2% is a bit much or too little. You have to put a lot of eggs in one basket to win big, right? That 2% rule sounds like diworsification. just my $.02 tomas - --- Pritish Shah wrote: > Dave, > > You asked a good question on how to make money in > the range bound market.

Tomas,
 
I haven't read the other responses, so maybe they got to this already.  The 2% rule only applies to the amount of capital you risk on a given trade.  It has nothing to do with the amount of capital you actually use in the trade.  For example, if I have a $100,000 portfolio, then I can only risk 2,000 on each trade.  If I follow WON's 8% stop-loss rule, then I can only invest 25,000 in each position because 8% * 25,000 = 2,000.
 
That would allow you to buy a minimum of 4 stocks in any portfolio if you are going to use an 8% stop-loss on each one. 
 
However, if you use a smaller stop-loss point, you can risk more money.  Let's say I find a trade in which I think a good stop-loss point is only 4% away from my entry.  In that case, I could actually risk $50,000.  Why?  Because 4% * 50,000 = 2,000.  So, the $2,000 figure remains constant.  And how capital you invest in a given trade is determined by how far away your stop-loss point is. 
 
You can even risk all $100,000 if you find a stop-loss point that is only 2% away.  If you buy a stock at 51 and you are willng to set a very tight stop loss at 50, you can theoretically risk all $100,000.  Or if you want to set your stop loss even tighter at 50.50, then you could use all your margin and buy $200,000. 
 
Now, clearly this way will stop you out of many stocks with small losses, but it gives you a concrete way to measure risk on each trade.  Of course, no matter how careful you are with stop-loss points, the stock can always gap sharply against you and you could lose much more than you planned.
 
Bottom line, you can invest as much of your capital as you want, just so long as you limit your RISK on each trade to 2%. 
 
Hope that helps.
 
Dave

One comment on the 2% comment. The whole idea using
CS is to win big when you are right, as stated by WON.
So, with only an investment of 2%, how do you win BIG
even if the one stock went up 100%? Of course, you
can pyramid up. But if you do that then that
stock/investment will be more then 2% of your
portfolio. I understand that capital preservation is
very important, but I 2% is a bit much or too little.

You have to put a lot of eggs in one basket to win
big, right? That 2% rule sounds like diworsification.

just my $.02
