text: anybody think they have found the perfect investment strategy? explain in detail your idea. explain your perfect hedge idea or arbitrage opportunity. and if you reply, do you work a day job? what is perfect?  i invest in smal and midcap stocks that make breakouts on volume.  on average that made me 15% per year over the last ten years.  i still have a day job, mainly because it is also investment related and i like it, at least most of the time.
