Now that my thread title got your attention I wanted to know... I apologize if this has been asked before but I'm fairly new to trading and wanted to get a gauge on other peoples approach to it.
Feel free to answer as little or as much as you like. I know some people they might like to keep their methods quiet or not openly discuss, which is fine but I hope to have some discussion
1) do you always research potential stocks?
2) do you ever just jump on the hype train and see how it goes?
3) is there a minimum amount of shares you like to buy in?
4) do you just buy shares based on your available funds or believe its best to have a minimum amount?
5) are you a trader and do the rewards more or less outweigh the risks?
6) are you a long term holder and how often do you monitor your portfolio?
7) do you have a diverse portfolio or do you believe less is more?
