Diversificarnoessolotenermáscosas

Diversification is meant to reduce the chance that one bad event wipes out a large part of your account. But simply adding more positions does nothing if they all move together. What matters is how the positions relate.

Correlation is the point

If several positions rise and fall in step, you effectively hold one big position dressed up as many. A single shock hits all of them at once.

True diversification comes from exposures that respond differently to the same events.

Practical limits

Diversification reduces some risk but never removes market wide moves that drag almost everything down together.

It is a complement to position sizing and stops, not a replacement for them.

Puntos clave

  • Correlated positions are not diversified.
  • Spread risk across exposures that behave differently.
  • Diversification supports, but never replaces, sizing and stops.
  • Trading leveraged products carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of all invested capital. This article is educational and is not investment advice.
