Thanks for your thoughtful reply karw.

Answered perfectly.

I follow a similar approach to yours in my "income" engines.
I allocate $20,000 per engine - only as a rough initial guide.
I usually start with 20-30% (plus virtual) and let AIM work it's magic.
Somewhat conservative but it works for my most of my portfolio.

I do have 3 stocks that have low beta with no realistic buy or sell opportunities on the horizon.
I suppose that's OK if I just wanted to sit back and collect only dividends.
I would like some degree of volatility capture so your "beta" adjustment appears to be a possible solution. Thanks again for sharing.

All the best,
John
