The sell point is equal to the number of shares you hold times the price of the shares.
Hence if you have less shares, and the sell point does not change, then you need a higher price to reach it.
The sell point depends on PC, SAFE and min trade size and thus does not change unless you buy or change the AIM parameters.

Hi squashthebug

>>Could some one explain how selling price increases if a stock price goes up and there is no buying, because portofolio control remains the sames as does safe. How can selling price rise unless one is able to buy more shares in order to raise portofoio control?<<<

If you have an AIM directed sell at $10,000 and you sell $500 you now have $9,500 in stock. In order for you to have another AIM direced sell again (without a sale first) the stock has to go to $10,000 again. Since you now own less shares, the share price has to go up for the value to go to $10,000.

Hi Squashthebug, Tofuzzy is on the right track, but let me take a whack at it. Ok you know that portfolio control (PC)determines when we buy or sell, but you want to get more into it. When ever stock value (SV} is the same as PC AIM is happy, this is what I call the neutral point. Now then we want to know at what price the neutral point is set at. That is easy, just take PC and divide it by the number of shares you have. So you can see, each time you sell shares you change the price of the neutral point. As the stock price starts to go above the neutral point AIM starts to feel the desire to sell, when the stock price reaches SAFE he can hardly keep his pants on, he is starting to sweet talk you. When the stock price reaches (SAFE plus MINIMUM SELL AMOUNT), AIM is now into full foreplay! HE is ready to SELL, not only that he is ready to SELL and SELL and SELL, if the stock price keeps going up! Thats why all the girls like him! And there you have it the ADULT version of AIM. By the way AIM likes different positions, some times he likes to BUY and BUY and BUY.
