Hi TooFuzzy, I hope that librarian can find the book, I had to go through the library borrowing program to get it last time. Had to wait two weeks for it.

I was trying to figure out what would happen if you actually had a second sell after that.

Each time you have a sell off the money goes into the cash reserves, ready to be draw on. Synchrovest will start anew with a new average cost, and very few shares of stock.

Also it seem you take a hell of a capital gains wack unless the account is not taxable.

Any time you sell all your stock this will happen. Also it may be better to take a tax loss, than to lose all your profit and maybe part of your capital.

I would think Twinvest is better in a taxable account as you would (could) just roll it into an AIM program. Do you think Synchrovest is better in a tax- free account than Twinvest and why?

One could also roll a Synchrovest plan into a AIM plan.
I think Mr L would have been jumping for joy if we had tax free accounts when he wrote the book. I personally think that Synchrovest will do much better than Twinvest in one. Why? I know you went through my posts. But in post 29 in the last half I compare the two.
IMHO Twinvest is only a very simple version of Synchrovest.
Here is the post.

If you have excel, I do have spread sheets that you can use to compare the two and other methods of systematic investing, just look in the I-Box.
