This solo episode is divided into 3 parts:

Part 1: Copytraders… do you copy?

I consider the fact that my current source of copytraders with whom to discuss all the ins and outs of their copytrading strategy is a well that may run dry. And then what? Where are all the other copytraders out there? Will they step forward to visit the clubhouse and discuss all things copytrading with me.

Part 2: Portfolio Update

I look at the story so far in April on my eToro portfolio. I also consider a few things from the recent episode with my 3rd PI, EliteVol and wonder what the future holds for my 4th, Tradebetter if he fails to begin to trade better.

Part 3: Fluttering PI lashes

Here I recognise the many excellent PIs that I am starting to realise are on eToro. There are so many intelligent, capable and impressive investors here. However just because you can enlist a team of many top performers, does that mean you should? That is not the advice I am hearing so far from guests who have visited the clubhouse.  Is less more or less more? Or less?

In this episode we talk to EliteVol aka Marco Willekens the 3rd of my 4 PIs. I don't know him well, nor do I fully understand what he does. In this chat I learn much more about the person and how he profits from market volatility by trading the VIX - an entirely separate asset class from my equities PIs. He is in my portfolio for reasons of diversification/hedging and we discuss how well he has discharged his duty so far! 

- Quickfire Questions
- Archaeology
- Under Pressure
- What the VIX?
- Risk - a fair reflection?
- My portfolio and EliteVol’s recent performance
- A change of approach
- Sell yourself Marco!

In this regular episode I give you a sneak peak behind the scenes at Copytraders Club and consider my life-bearing hips.
