Hi Conrad Re Virtual shares

In general I feel a minimum amount to start an AIM account os $10,000 stock and $5,000 in cash. Since the V-wave is 50% I would make that $10,000 in cash (50-50)

That is a LOT of money to start out investing with.

So instead you PRETEND you are starting with $10,000 in stock but only really buy $5,000 and keep the cash starting amount the same ($5,000 to $10,000)

You then AIM as if you invested the $10,000 in stock (PC would start at $10,000)

So you have less shares sitting there that you never trade.
You may run out of shares to sell in a strong market
You start with less money per AIM account
It may allow you to diversify more with the same amount of money.

Not a recommendation, just an explanation.

Hope that helps
