Portfolio Review Needed

32-year-old newbie investor here looking for a portfolio review and some honest feedback.

### Investor Profile
- Risk Appetite: Moderate
- Goal: Long-term wealth creation and financial freedom through disciplined SIP investing
- Secondary goal: Diversification across Indian equity, international equity, gold, and liquid assets
- Investment Horizon: 10+ years
-App used - PayTM Money

### Current SIP Allocation (₹20,000/month)
- Nippon India Large Cap Fund – ₹7,500
- Edelweiss Mid Cap Fund – ₹4,500
- Bandhan Small Cap Fund – ₹2,500
- ICICI Prudential NASDAQ 100 Index Fund – ₹2,000
- Aditya Birla Sun Life Liquid Fund – ₹3,500

### Additional Investment
- Axis Gold Fund – One-time investment currently around ₹15K

### Current Portfolio Status
- Total Invested: ~₹1.05L
- Current Value: ~₹1.09L
- XIRR: 14.52%

### Why I Chose These Funds
- Nippon Large Cap: Wanted a stable core large-cap fund with strong historical performance
- Edelweiss Mid Cap: Seemed to offer a balanced risk-reward profile
- Bandhan Small Cap: Limited exposure to small caps with attractive past returns
- ICICI Nasdaq 100: For US exposure and international diversification through index investing
- ABSL Liquid Fund: For emergency/opportunity funds instead of idle savings balance
- Axis Gold Fund: Diversification and hedge against volatility

### Main Questions

  1. Is my liquid allocation too high for my age and goals?
  2. Should I rebalance more toward equity?
  3. Any unnecessary overlap or weak fund choices?
  4. Is the gold allocation reasonable?
  5. Any suggestions for long-term optimization?

Would really appreciate constructive criticism and suggestions, especially from experienced long-term investors.

M1 Borrow Is Low-Key Elite

I just learned about traditional margin borrowing and Pledged Asset Lines (PALs), and it made me realize how underrated M1 Borrow is. It’s kind of like the best of both worlds. Hopefully one day I’ll be rich enough to fully use the borrow, spend, and die strategy. 😂

Why is my M1 initiated a sell order?

My m1 has never done this before. No slice is 0%, i don’t have multiple pies, i don’t use margin, i usually deposit once a week on Monday of $200 and it auto invest, but its saying there’s a sell order. I can’t cancel it, i can’t find the reason for the order, and i cant cancel the order.

Hypothetical question: prop firm scaling with multiple accounts

Let’s say someone has 10 funded accounts across 10 different prop firms, trading ES.
Each account makes just +2 points per day (~$100 per account), and the trades are then copied across all accounts.
In theory, that would be about $1,000/day total profit.
My question is:
Is this actually doable in practice, or does it break down because of execution, risk limits, or prop firm rules?
Specifically:
Would copy trading even work reliably across multiple prop accounts?
Would slippage and fills make this unrealistic?
Do prop firms have rules that would flag or restrict this kind of setup?
Or is this just one of those “sounds good on paper but doesn’t scale” ideas?
Curious to hear from people who’ve tried scaling or running multiple funded accounts.

A Taste of Humble Pie

Jobs not finished. Guys I’m here to say don’t get discouraged when you see others have a higher net worth than you do. I just hit 10k a few days ago. That’s a milestone from a guy who came from humble beginnings. With that being said,
Is there any way you would rearrange these contributions?

Concentration upgrade suggestion

It would be really cool if concentration analysis was able to dissect ETF holdings and give an estimate of total exposure for overlapping holdings. For example if I hold AMZN and VOO what’s my total exposure to AMZN?

This might get messy for smaller holdings in ETFs but maybe there’s a way to only show this for overlap between individual names and ETF holdings.

I’m sure there’s challenges to doing this I’m not thinking of but I think it would be a cool route to explore!

Seeking advice on AI developed portfolio/strategy

I'm working on revising my portfolio with AI to maximize growth over a 20 year + timeframe with 100% stocks.

I've built:

55% S&P 500 (FXAIX)

25% International (VXUS)

20% Small Cap Value (AVUV)

I'm prioritizing AVUV in my Roth accounts, FXAIX in my pre-tax retirement accounts, and VXUS in my taxable brokerage accounts.

I wasn't too familiar with the Small Cap Value tilted strategy, but I've done some research and I'm comfortable with the volatility in hopes of greater long term gains.

I'd appreciate any advice you may have or factors I should be considering here.

Thanks in advance!

How should I diversify my pies?

Image 1 is my brokerage account and image 2 is retirement.

Currently investing $50/week into my brokerage and $10/week into my retirement (constrained by income).

This started off as a fun way to save and now that it’s growing I’m looking for general advice.

The ultimate portfolio

I’m just someone who really likes numbers and is interested in the many ways one can invest their money for multiple gains and earnings. My goal is to create one of the, if not the greatest, portfolios with exponential returns.

What are some of your methods or ideas?

Issues attempting to transfer from Fidelity CMA to M1 Finance IRA

When I try to add Fidelity CMA as a funding source for my M1 Finance IRA (using routing and account number) Plaid gets me to try to log in to UMB, which doesn't work.

On the flip side, if I try to add M1 Finance as an external account within Fidelity, it tells me that M1 Finance is not supported.

What am I supposed to do here?

Thoughts on pie?

This is my Roth IRA, started late last year. Main goal is aggressive growth with a hedge against down markets with SCHD. Do you think there is too much sector overlap here? Im not afraid of a large overlap in tech since my goal is very aggressive growth, but wondering if you think its too much overlap

Rate (Roast) my Pie

Details:

This makes up about 40% of my total invested assets. Remaining 60% is in ONLY broad market equity indexes, I treat this portfolio as my active sleeve where I can move a bit out on the risk curve but still aim to maintain disciplined broad exposure.

27 y/o; ROTH IRA so no tax on transactions allowing me to be nimble if needed.

Current positions growing over time:

NBIS, TOST

Trimming semis into this rally over the past few week. Have held exposure since 2022 and had withdrew twice my initial capital - maintaining exposure to participate in more upside but using as source of funds as it’s my belief the sector has become euphoric in recent weeks.

Roast my pie, rate my pie, give me any feedback.

u/denialof_ — 14 days ago

I'm looking for general advice about how my PIE is looking like and how to improve it.

For example:

How I could shuffle the percentage of certain stocks/funds.

If my PIE is overlapping and if I should remove anything. I'm looking for overall specifics so if you suggest I remove one over the other I'd like it if you could specify why.

I invest $10 daily and am looking to drop in 3-4k.

(This is my first brokerage account)

Repost because I forgot to include the rest of the images.
