Hi Allen, The indicators I use when starting a new program are Bollinger Bands and Williams $R. Also it's useful to spread out the initial buy over a few months in 3-4 buys depending on the size of the position.
No you dont understand. The 30% hold. Zone is fine for BTB with ETFs. I am very happy with a 30% hold zone with my regular Aim accounts and even LD Aim. With a smaller hold zone you will have more trades but make less per trade. For some securities it might be worth it to have a smaller hold zone but you may just be data mining the past for something that will NOT happen in the future.
I thought I was responding to a question about using the delayed trade method in which case I would still use regular Aim settings but just delay the trades. In that case if you waited for the reverse trade you would be waiting for a 30% move which would be too much.
Reguardless I would trade monthly. The MA Setting would only be used with delayed trades and that would be the daily MA. Other people have other thoughts.
I have fould that if you are ALWAYS starting with 50% cash you might actually do better starting when something is at its high and declines. That is because you will get more invested in stock at lower prices as opposed to starting with 50% CASH AND THAT INCREASING TO 80% before you get a pullback.
