LD-AIM = GU-AIM
"LD-AIM can be used to give you bigger trades with the same number of holdings or allow you to diversify more than you would be able to otherwise." (See #35826)
I'm attracted to the idea of using LD-AIM to gear up trading (hence GU-AIM for Geared Up AIM!).
If I've understood correctly, it would work something like this:
You have $10,000. Under AIM BTB you would put $5K into equities and keep $5K as cash reserve. In LD-AIM you would only put $2,500 into equities, keeping $7,500 as cash. This $7,500 can now be taken to represent 50% of a virtual AIM account of $15,000, and the virtual equities starting amount, and Portfolio Control, become $7,500. You run AIM according to these virtual amounts, updating the virtual current equities value with price movements, generating buy and sell recommendations, subject to 5% SAFE and MT of 10%, which are then implemented in full with real money.
