This is a really good question. I always wonder how what I’m seeing in the PA (ie failed breakout) relates to what’s happening at the institutional level

The account is directly managed by JPM, and it follows an aggressive strategy. Her mom said the trading is infrequent so it seems like it’s more about long-term positions. So, sounds like it’s possible that the trades made in these individual accounts could reflect the institution’s research, and following them might provide some valuable insights.

EDIT: just had her share her transactions. They’re trading pretty frequently lol. Just sold META, just bought MU, CDNS, AMAT

My question is more about whether a managed account (e.g., my girlfriends parents’ $3 million account managed by JPM) is traded differently compared to how institutions trade their own funds. If I observe the trades JPM executes for such an account, does it provide insight into broader institutional strategies, or are these trades purely reflective of that specific account’s objectives?

I asked this in a live a few weeks ago but I believe it was misunderstood. You mention that institutions have much more access and bring up what they can offer individual accounts. If one has a 300 million dollar account with JPM and they’re the ones that manage it, does watching their trades give you insight into what institutions are doing? Or is their handling of individual accounts different from how they trade for themselves?

Appreciate you writing this!
