-More recently I have held 50% of my capital in a mix of funds, global large caps, UK & global small caps, and UK micro caps. This is in an attempt to compile a widows & novices investment strategy of buy & hold just half a dozen historically reliable very diverse funds with a wide spread of global risk.

Stock picking strategy follows similar principles of O'Shaughnessy, Zweig, Slater and Kirkpatrick. Low price sales ratio with fundamentals strength, growth and ranked for highest absolute strength. Stocks screened and removed/replaced every three months or held for 12 months. Scale out into bear markets, scale in into bull markets.

Day Trading 1 min, 3 min & 5 min charts on price action support & resistance, reversals and consolidation breakouts. edit- too time consuming & stressful except for bear markets. FTSE 100 needs to have a 10 day average daily range of 80 pips before its worth my while day trading.

As markets mature and become over valued "defensives" outperform so I move into defensive consumer staple stocks & low volatility long/short Absolute Return Funds, treasuries, gold and short index ETF's
