You are absolutetly correct. You can actually use it to time an entering point.
Also, this is where the aim uptrend method, in my opinion, pays hugh dividends.
Now, to your SDRL example. Using the aim uptrend method, I could not start an aim account at this time.
SDRL is in an aim downtrend move from its $46.62 high; consequently, I would have to wait to see If the stock is strong enough to make an aim uptrend move from its $26.58 price. I would enter at $29.75 or higher.
However, looking at SDRL monthly MACD which had a bearish crossover, my opinion is that the stock will go lower or remain in this zone for a long period.
One thing I know for sure, nothing positive will happen until SDRL monthly MACD starts an upward move.

Hi jaiml,

Also, my testing shows that one can squeeze another 0.5% / yr when using a lower buy SAFE, even down at 0%. The delayed method will prevent you from trading often.

I'm a bit confused by that in that I thought increasing the % for either by or sell delayed action because the hold range was broader. I.e., 10% buy safe + 5% minimum stock sale would seem to me to require more buying than 20% buy safe + 5% minimum stock sale.

Have I misunderstood something?

Thanks,

Allen
