Portfolio Sweepwatch & learn · not investment advice

Understand any investment in five questions

One worksheet, five questions — the same framework the Portfolio Sweep app applies to every asset on a watchlist. Print it, write the holding's name at the top, and answer in pencil.

Holding: ______________________________________   Date: ______________

1. What's the trend?

Is the price above or below its 200-day average? Above means the long-term drift is up; below means it is leaning down.

2. Is it just the market?

What did the broad market do over the same stretch — and is this move market-wide, mostly this asset, or against the market?

3. How strong is the momentum?

Where is the RSI — running hot (over ~70), fell hard (under ~30), or neither?

4. How bumpy is it normally?

What is its volatility — Low, Medium, or High — and is today's move big for this asset, or just a normal day for it?

5. What's my actual reason?

Why am I watching this, and over what time horizon? (This is the question the app's journal asks — the worksheet ends where the journal begins. New to the vocabulary? The glossary has every term.)

Portfolio Sweep never gives buy or sell calls. It describes what prices are doing — trend, momentum, how it compares to the market — so you can learn and decide for yourself. You don't trade inside Portfolio Sweep. This page is education, not investment advice.
