I Rebalanced My Portfolio (April 2026) — Real Trades, 0 Tax, Full Breakdown
A real portfolio update with exact trades, tax optimization strategy, and how I’m restructuring for long-term growth.
After restarting 7R4G Investments, I didn’t wait—I executed my first portfolio rebalance immediately.
This wasn’t theory. This was a real shift in my investing strategy, with actual trades, tax optimization decisions, and a clear move toward a more structured, long-term portfolio. I reduced concentration, realized both gains and losses, and started building a foundation with ETFs and bonds.
In this update, I’m sharing everything: the exact trades I made, how I legally reduced my taxable profit to 0 HUF, and how I’m restructuring my portfolio for sustainable growth.
Where I started
Portfolio value: ~3.58 million HUF
Unrealized profit: +17%
But the structure?
Messy.
- Overweight Hungarian stocks
- Underweight global exposure
- Dead positions still sitting in the portfolio
- No real defensive layer
So I made a decision:
Stop managing positions. Start managing a portfolio.
The actual trades (no filters)
1. I trimmed winners
Magyar Telekom (+444%)
- Sold: 30 shares
- Buy price: 447.5 HUF
- Sell price: 2,432 HUF
- Realized gain: 59,535 HUF
ZWACK Unicum (+105%)
- Sold: 7 shares
- Buy price: 17,550 HUF
- Sell price: 36,000 HUF
- Realized gain: 129,150 HUF
Total realized gains:
188,685 HUF
2. I cut a major loser
Greenlane Renewables
- Position: 1,000 shares
- Buy price: 2.27 CAD
- Sell price: 0.235 CAD
- Loss: -89.65%
Realized loss: ~458,000 HUF
3. I added a defensive position
iShares $ Treasury Bond 1-3yr UCITS ETF
- Order: 3 shares @ 127.56 USD (limit)
This is my first real step toward building a defensive layer in the portfolio.
The tax strategy (this is where it gets interesting)
Here’s what most investors ignore:
You don’t pay tax on profits.
You pay tax on net realized gains.
My numbers:
- Gains: 188,685 HUF
- Loss: ~458,000 HUF
Result:
0 HUF tax paid
And more importantly:
I still have ~269,000 HUF loss buffer for future gains
Why this matters
This isn’t just about saving tax.
This is about:
- freeing capital
- increasing flexibility
- improving portfolio structure
All without paying the price most investors do
What I fixed with these trades
Before:
- Concentrated winners
- Dead capital locked in losses
- No risk management
After:
- Reduced concentration
- Realized gains strategically
- Created tax efficiency
- Started building a defensive layer
What’s still not solved
Let’s be honest.
I still have positions that need attention:
- Amira Nature Foods → effectively -100%
- Biora Therapeutics → effectively -100%
These are now illiquid / restricted.
Next step:
Contact broker and attempt to realize losses manually
What I’m doing next
This is not a one-time rebalance.
This is the beginning of a new structure.
1. Build ETF core (priority)
I’m starting to add:
- Vanguard S&P 500 UCITS ETF
Goal:
Increase global exposure
Reduce country risk
2. Expand defensive allocation
- Continue building position in iShares $ Treasury Bond 1-3yr UCITS ETF
Role:
Stability
Lower volatility
Dry powder for future opportunities
3. Gradually reduce concentration
I will continue trimming:
- ZWACK Unicum
- Magyar Telekom
Not because they’re bad.
Because they’re too dominant.
A quick note on my forex account
Separate from this portfolio, I also run an active trading account:
- Size: ~1.88M HUF
- Total realized loss: ~800k HUF
- Previous gains: ~600–700k HUF
This is not part of this portfolio yet.
And that’s intentional.
Different strategy. Different risk profile.
The biggest lesson so far
For 9 years, I was investing.
Now I’m starting to manage capital.
There’s a difference.
Investing is:
- buying
- holding
- hoping
- allocating
- trimming
- optimizing
- controlling risk
- managing taxes
Final thought
This is the first real step of the new 7R4G phase.
Not perfect.
But structured.
And that’s what compounds.
Next:
I’ll break down my full 9-year track record — what worked, what failed, and what I’m changing.
Stay with me.
