Presenting - The Advantage (Beta)

Thanks for offering to test this. The Beta is good until July 31, 2009. It should be a full version. The Windows version needs a LOT of clean up work but should still run. Don't know if the Linux version works.

The Advantage (aka AIM II) works similar to AIM but instead of starting with $5,000 cash and $5,000 in stock, you go short $5,000 worth of stock and long $5,000 to create an initial boxed position. You then hold the boxed position until the stock drops and makes it's first turn in the downward direction. So starting at the top of a market cycle (which is easier anyway because you can see where you've been) is preferable.

The Advantage makes a profit from the short position and feeds it to the long at the bottom. Then at the top the long position feeds the profit to the short side. The result is your portfolio compounds geometrically. Which is how it achieved $2.1 million in profits after only 4 cycles starting with $10,000.

In addition, if you trade stocks with options, options can be sold both monthly and whenever you reach the peak of a cycle. And since you have both long and short positions, there's plenty of cash flow.

Okay, enough chit chat. Here are the beta downloads. You'll need an internet connection because they phone home. Have fun and enjoy. Feel free to send comments to [e-mail] and put 'The Advantage' in the subject. Thank you.
