A.I.M. Users Bulletin Board

Hi Suncat

>>>>>It seems in reading current and former posts that very few actually follow the AIM method as it is written. Everyone seems to tweek it to fit their own desires. So my question is: if this system is actually good why don't users follow it?<<<<<

1) Because it is Sooooooooooo simple and since you only need to look at your holdings once / month people get bored. (Guess they don't have enough other interests)

2)There would be nothing to talk about on this board!

Any "RESEARCHED" improvements are usually because of data mining. They worked in the past but MAY not in the future.

For instance, using 2x funds lead to greater volitility capture in a range bound market, but when the market crashes and burns you may run out of cash too quickly bringing the AIM program to a halt. Same with trading more than once / month or using a smaller hold zone.

It is good to start with a specific plan (and to know why) and stick to it. The tendency is to make emotional changes at just the wrong time.
