My results so far

I started a Roth IRA with max $3000 in mid-November.
Today it is worth $3762, up 25% as simple return. Valueline portfolio tracker calculated 29%, based on staggered entries/purchases I did. As of today I am only 83% invested; the rest is cash thrown off by X_Dev sales. Pretty good for 2 months.
AIM historical evaluation I did in A.I. for same period using Default configuration indicates it would have done no trades and been same as B&H. Which would be 23% return while having to be nearly 100% invested.

I hold SCSS, RINO and TIVO. I was mixing AIM and X_Dev software usage at the start, before X_Dev 3.0 came out with portfolio manager, so I started off 96% invested, and just used the X_Dev charts to trigger trades. With X_Dev 3.0, I entered my past transactions in the portfolio mgr and started using that to trigger trades.

RINO has just grown steadily so it's same as B&H. TIVO had one buy/sell trip in the middle and is headed up again now after a big dive after insider selling pre-Christmas.
SCSS started out at $7.92; I sold some at 10.17, bought some back at 9.04, sold 34 shares today for $11.05, and got another trigger to try and sell 44 more tomorrow for 11.1 (closed at 10.77 today; not too far away). If that happens I'll be in even better shape.
