Conrad.

Yes I have changed it slightly, but I have not posted the new changes yet. I'd like to do a bit more testing to see if the concept is going to work the way I proposed it.
The progressive part is where the factors start out low on a rally or decline and get progressively larger as the rally or decline continues. Each increment is based on a move of the stock price by a fixed amount like 15% or 20% from the last price point.
Actually one could achieve roughly the same effect by increasing the percentage move for a buy or sell point each time, like: 10%, 13%, 16%, 19% ETC.. until a move in the opposite direction takes place. These are just arbitrary percentage moves. I have not tested this theory.

So, the VORTEX Method is nothing more than a formalization of my gut-feeling AIM trading but with an accelerated trading action:
PC1=SV1
Market Order= (PC1-SV2)*M = Buy(or a Sell)
SV3=SV2+ Buy
PC2=SV3


I think I understand, like PC=Port Contr and SV= Stock Value except you did not say what "M" stands for. Is that the multiplier? Nowhere do you state what this is. Are you implying that you should set it to what you think the conditions warrant? If for example the stock was very bullish looking you might back off on the selling amount? Do you determine the "M" range by back testing? But then again you said the multiplier is "a constant as it is for Vortex." You need to explain it a bit better for me to understand. Thats me though, I'm more artistic than analytical in nature.
Yes, I did attempt to call DDCA "New AIM" at one time but it was a bit off the mark since it's not really automatic in the true sense of the word, because of the Factors variability. AIM is automatic if you follow the rules.

My web site has the original spreadsheet for downloading. Feel free to experiment!
