A trader loaded up on ten positions at once. Bold move. Terrible execution. Couldn't manage any of them properly. Watched them all. Saw none of them. Eyes everywhere. Brain nowhere. Ten positions aren't a portfolio. It's a panic attack with a brokerage account. Here's the thing nobody tells you: diversification requires attention, not just allocation. Spreading your capital is easy. Spreading your focus? That's the hard part — and most people can't do it. Lesson: Diversification without attention is just scattered risk. Or as a chef would put it, ordering the whole menu doesn't make you a foodie. It makes you a mess. Focus is a position too. Size it accordingly
