Thank you all for great replies.
For many years now I have been mainly a momentum trader, trend following (or trying to), those who have done this know of course how simple it sounds but in reality how difficult it actually is.
AIM went against all the T.A. I was taught back at the tail end of the Dot.com boom. I'm just thinking how long it took to realise that momentum trading after April 2000, especially to the long side, was going to be a losing proposition. Hindsight, always makes us wonder how things would have been done differently if only we had foresight.
AIM suits my more contrarian nature.
I have taken onboard your advice Tom and have ensured my Buy SAFE values are larger than my sells.
I must admit I was blown away by the graphs of AIM trading on stocks, for the first time I have actually seen something that does buy the lows and sell the highs.
I have become a preacher of all things Lichello, he must have been a very interesting person to meet.
I would be interested Tom if you know at what point does AIM become self sustaining? Hard question I know as that would depend upon the volatility of the portfolio under control.
Many thanks
Neil
