Hi Lostcowboy

In that last edition he did two things which I don't think helped AIM

1) He reduced the starting cash to 20%. Now that would be fine if you were starting in Feb 2003 or Dec 2008 but if you started in Jan 2000 or Jan 2007 it would have been murder.

2) He increased the min order size to 10%. Well that would be OK the last few years in this volitile market but in most years most investors would be happy to make 10% and that is INCLUDING dividends. So that could reduce your trades quite a bit or even worse a stock could move up and back down without you getting a trade.

I think the standard settings are MUCH better with using the V-wave as a starting cash % amount.

But what do I know
