Would the OrdersNetLiq function under OrderSettings help? I have it pointing to a txt with my latest account value, and also double check any sell orders loaded in basket trader match my current number of holdings using the drop down.

Another nice month Nick.

And congrats on your main trading account. I read on your Twitter (X) that you’re having a great year so far.
WTT on the ASX is lifting the heavy weight. While it has some tough years, WTT can during bull markets do some really heavy lifting.

[Nick Radge]

Thanks Scott. Yes, WTT is +57.6% YTD.

Interestingly some other ASX portfolios struggling though; 
ASX Momo:  +3.4%
ASX Momo+: +8.1%

Nick,
Welcome back from your West Africa fishing trip. Saw a picture of the fish you caught on Twitter. Awesome fish! How long did it take you to bring the fish to net? What kind of tackle did you use? Was it a fly rod?

[Nick Radge]

Thanks Len. Yes, one of those bucket list trips that I really not need to do again. Flying time was 27-hours there and about 40-hours travel time back. 

Those large dark brown fish were Cubera Snapper and can grow to 50kg. Mine were 10kg – 15kg, and gave a big fight. Sette Cama is renowned for its fly fishing by we mainly did surf casting with a variety of surface lures. It’s pretty heavy going on the body and we fished about 8-10 hours a day, mainly during the night. This fish below was caught in about 1m of water.

I have decided that I’ll stay with the long term portfolios while I travel. I’ll get back to the ETF Diversifier when I return, unless I feel I have the time (aka be bothered) while I’m away.

An update on the YTD performance of the various portfolios I run for myself and clients:

[KateMoloney]

Nice work Nick!

[GlenPeake]

Just going over some of my yearly stats atm Nick.

RE: Your R1000 MOMO & NDX MOMO yearly stats
What gets me is, we trade the same ‘style’ of system, yet I trade my own versions of these systems and we have different momo setups/ranks/number of positions etc…. yet our stats are almost identical.

My R1000 return this year: 44.60%
My NDX return this year: 28.09%

Prior to the Mentor course, whenever I saw a tweet like the one containing these yearly performance metrics, my jaw would drop and I’d ask myself, ‘How does Nick KEEP pulling these awesome numbers….?’ AND How can I get to that level? 

…….. I would not have the answers/insights to those questions without this Course….. Thank goodness for the Mentoring!

Cheers

[Nick Radge]

Thanks Glen. Glad to hear its rolling along nicely for you.

Yes, there is no secret sauce per se, but there are correct protocols to build it out, then its a function of staying the course and allowing the cards to fall as they may. As I’ve said before, a simple strategy applied for the long term, is the Holy Grail.
