Trading Week Reflection:

It was an active week on my short-term account as I continued to exit weak positions and lock in gains on winners that hit my profit targets and, in some cases, even the second target level. While I did deploy a bit of cash on Friday, I ended the week as a net seller and now sit with 70% of the portfolio invested, the lowest level in two months.

The bounce from April’s low has delivered strong gains. Still, with the market now consolidating and preparing for its next move, I’m becoming more cautious about the trading portfolio. I’m, therefore, comfortable holding a sizable cash position for now, which gives me the flexibility to deploy when the next market cycle begins.
