So like many folks here and other places lately, the massive run has in the market has created phenomenal run. I do want to sell some portion of portfolio and have cash on the side - I am okay to miss out on future gains.

One basic strategy is to sell the initial capital and leave free money to float. I don't have that many position that returned 100%

I'm eye balling my portfolio and returns thus far has been high 30%.

What is optimum strategy to sell? Sell 30% or 50% of the position and place it elsewhere or leave money invested and let the funds weather the storm.
