Hi Conrad -

No offense intended with the binar crack. Obviously you are extremely intelligent and have thought these issues through. Your explanations, however, sometimes look like one long math equation. Any way to simplify things a bit?

Best Regards,

Hi nitelord,

You make perfect sense. You are right, in that case Vortex might sell for a FIFO loss (depending on sell factor and minimum trade). But AIM also could trade for a FIFO loss: start standard AIM, get two buys, and the next sell is for a FIFO loss. Both systems primarily AIM at LIFO gains. Obviously this bothered Matt, and he puts PC at average cost. I don't see it as a problem myself. So AIM's value is 'ideal' and Matt's value is 'real', while the PC value of Vortex is just for trading.

Regards,

Karel

Hi NiteLord, On Vortex.

I am running about 40 posts behind, so others may have responded to your qustion already. I take then as they come!

In the Vortex Y=PC after a trade always automatically by the linking of the Buy Factor and the Buy Agression:

BF=1/(1-BA)

So, if BA=0,5 the BF=2
Buy = (5000-3000)*BF=2000*2=4000
PC2=PC1 + 0,5(4000)=5000 + 2000 = 7000
New Stock Value =3000+4000=7000

Ergo
