Hi Conrad, perhaps we're just talking about different things!
You: Everybody is wrong in this FIFO vORTEX loss (Sounds like a dog's name!). If you use the right combination of parameters most of the stock stays in much longer than you imigine!
The last sentence in this paragraph seems to indicate that you are talking about LIFO (Last in, First Out) gains/losses. I agree: with sensible parameters Vortex AIM will not sell its most recently acquired shares for a loss (and this might include the shares bought first).
It is however an at least equally accepted practice to assume that the shares you bought first also go out first (First In, First Out, or FIFO). After the first two buys, the next AIM sell will seldom be above the original buy level, and I would suppose that this is also true for Vortex AIM, again using sensible parameters. If you use less sensible parameters (overtuned?), you might even sell for a FIFO loss after the first buy. That was all what the discussion was about, as far as I can see. A bit theoretical.
Regarding your other post: I indeed think that the most important difference between normal AIM and Vortex AIM is the flexibility offered by the "Agression" factors in Vortex AIM. If my imagery confuses, just skip it. It should be redundant.
Regards,
Karel
