Portfolio Optimization with Monte Carlos Simulation and Fibbonacci Retracement

The objective of this project was to obtain a portfolio with the optimal result (Highest ROE & Sharpe Ratio). Samples were taken from Virginia Tech SEED’s real energy portfolio. The chosen equities were tested through the Monte Carlos Simulation. Traditionally, themes of portfolio success can be achieved through: diversification, risk-management, setting a goal, and establishing a time horizon. Through trials from the Monte Carlos Simulation, these themes prove accurate. Patterns of the optimal portfolio can be seen through diversifying one’s portfolio and being overweight in companies that have historically performed well. Finally, fibonacci retracement levels were established to determine possible support and resistance levels.
