I spent about a year putting together an ETF list in an attempt to cover as many areas of the market as possible.  I researched each one and they were selected by overall volume, fee structure, diversification and several other aspects.  There are clearly ETF’s in this list that are not diversified such as GLD which is only invested in gold but were included on the list to gain access to that sector with reasonable fees and a good volume.

I created this ETF list for several reasons.  Feel free to explore this list and use it any way you see fit.

1. A go-to list that I could quickly find sectors breaking out or sectors that were losing favor with investors.  I could then drill down to quickly find individual stocks that may be worthy of trading.  It is also and simple way to find possible sector rotations.
2. An ETF list that could be used for finding option directional or spread trading opportunities.  There have been times when I have found as 20 good spread trades per month.  Other times when there are few productive trading setups.
3. I also use this list when looking for longer term positions as a core portfolio of diversified ETF’s.  From this list, it is possible to build conservative, moderate or aggressive portfolios that have much lower costs than mutual funds.
