Why Is Diversification So Important?


The simpler you make your entries, the more charts you can analyze, and the more assets you can trade. This approach aligns with the number one recommendation for any diversified investor: diversification.

Even if you're trading just one stock today, you're still diversified because youโ€™re selecting the one most likely to succeed based on your process. This minimizes exposure to less promising stocks, which is why diversification is so powerful.
