Calculating accurate Portfolio Weightings when using Lot Sizes
57Portfolio calculations and the Efficient Frontier required accurate 'weightings' for each asset or position. But how can this be achieved when using position lot sizes? The issue is that lot sizes can't be reliably compared across different assets. Therefore, conversion to monetary amounts is required enabling portfolio calculations can be accurately undertaken.
This video shows how lot sizes can be accurately converted to monetary values, also taking into account the fact that different assets might use different calculation currencies.
