Hiya Toof.
You are the one who suggested 10% min order size to me!
Correct, but not in the context of using larger trade sizes to extend the selling. Rather to improve one's return. Classic AIM calls for 10% Safe and 5% minimum order size. Flipping those over results in the same trading range, but increases size of both Buys and Sells.
My point was that if you want to have a program with more consecutive Sells built in, then you should begin the program with more Actual shares.
This is what the LD-AIM worksheet does for you. It provides the starting points basis your inputs.
It will accept anywhere from 1 (ridiculous) to 10 (probably too many) on each side. Result is how many shares to actually purchase in support of 'X' consecutive Sells; and how much cash you would need to get 'X' consecutive Buys.
Any intervening Buy after a Sell or vice versa negates those 'pre-planned' transactions anyway.
I've been most comfortable with 5 Sells.
That is what I set up with my latest; SLV.
But since it is an ETF which will not be a volatile as its underlying holdings, I opted for smaller trade sizes (5% SV on each side).
The larger point is that LD-AIM need not be managed any differently than if one had invested in the total initial purchase (beginning PC) and run a Classic AIM program.
they are managed the same once begun, always at the individuals comfort levels (settings).
