Hi Victor,
Is position sizing the same as portfolio weighting. Are they used interchangeably? I assume this is in $ terms and periodically a rebalancing is needed and relative weightage adjusted.

Hi SW,

Yes position sizing and portfolio weighting is the same thing. The sizing is based on purchase cost price.
