Hi Allen.

When the Newport program was written, the decision was made to use % of PC instead of Lichello's original algorithm. Not sure specifically why that was. Easier to program? I don't know what the on line AIM Calculator uses.

Note that Lichello used the price x # Shares to get to Stock Value (SV) on the checkup day to do the Buy Sell calculation directing a market order for 'X' $$$.
He did not predict the price at which the next Buy or Sell would occur. Big difference!

FWIW, I worked out how to use Lichello's math to predict next Buy or Sell price and amount when I developed the LD-AIM worksheet.
It includes accomodation for minimum $ trades as well.

The 'Calcs Example' tab in the LD-AIM worksheet walks through the logic of this approach.
