Now I have more analytical approach. I initiate my position with 50% of my goal. Follow it on quarterly-basis. If equity increases, i am happy and stop at that. Then I look for another similar equity for remaining half. If reduces by 20% (analyze taking in account the time duration, qualitative issues, div, etc) then add remaining 50%. When ROE drops more than 40-50% in short time or some other valid reason, then it was a mistake to begin with. Get out of it. I learnt my lesson hard way. Now I have more analytical approach.

Now that I’m a little more seasoned I take a more cautious approach. I usually initiate a half position and then keep a close eye on the security over the next 2 -6 months. After the 2-6 month holding period if the security has grown close to my desired weighting I’ll do nothing. However, if it has stayed stagnant or declined significantly I will average down with either another half position or a quarter position. <br/><br/>American Dividend Investor When I first began investing I used to do my analysis and then buy 100% of my desired position.
