RE: You could use trailing stops but...

I forgot to mention that I've been buying near the limit of cash and selling near the limit of shares on hand. This happens almost automatically when using the modification of buying on the first up tick after a run down and selling on the first down tick after a run up. What I have found is that doing it this way you almost always are given a cumulative amount to either buy or sell that exceeds current resources on hand. This makes choosing the amount to buy or sell quite easy - all you've got.

I think it is this that makes the return higher than straight AIM because you have a higher percentage of your position in play at any one time. It seems much like when Lichello went from a 50% cash down, in steps, to 20% in AIM-High to get better returns.

Best,

Allen

Hi Allen

You will defeat both the purpose of AIM and also the purpose of delaying AIM trades.
