Hi Toofuzzy, In the online calculator there is the line "Minimum Purchase % Of Stock Shares". (I've always taken that to mean buy or sell.) Based on that it differs from the AimBareS.xls spreadsheet which says, "Starting Minimum Trade - Number of Shares". One then calculates whatever % you desire of your initial holdings as the fixed share number and enter it into cell B14. Of course one can change this by entering a different number at the appropriate line in column Q, "Minimum Trade Active ## Shares" but it is still a fixed number of shares, not a percentage of the shares held. Yes, one can calculate that percentage and enter it into the appropriate place in column Q. I'm just automating the process of converting that fixed number to a percentage of shares held.

Best,

Allen
