Hi Wim

I am not in a position to talk about the merits of long proshares but i will say that any time you are striving for a greater return you are subjecting yourself to greater risk. There has been a LOT of discussion on this board as to how the INVERSE proshares have a definate risk as a long term investment.

Using LD-AIM (where you pretend you are buying two to three times the stock you really are and therefore your trade size is two to three times larger might achieve the same effect as you are looking for from the long proshares.

If we are at the bottom of the market and you are AIMing using proshares you might not make as much as you might think because you will only be selling. What really makes AIM profitable is both buying and selling.

Take the road less traveled. It will make all the difference.
