Hi I, Bill McKinley and his partner have a software product PCA that emulates the Lichello AIM model.

I don't know if they ever produced a Twinvest or Synchrovest product.

Best regards, Tom

portfolio pilot. When I further googled I learned he was associated with PCA aim system. Is his system a twinvest or synchrovest system?

Do you have any information ?

None directly. I think I found the same source you did, a news release dated 10 June (of what year I'm not sure) but it mentioned a "system" called "Portfolio Pilot" as running under Excel for $29.95. Apparently some people were starting to use it and sending positive feedback.

PCA and Automatic Investor are the two main AIM programs that people in the various AIM boards seem to be using the most, though there are some lesser used programs out there as well. There was a site called "incwave" that purportedly offered a similar service, though they went belly-up some time ago. Why pay someone $59/month when you can work the calculations easily enough yourself at minimal cost?

If Mr. McKinley's still with PCA, you might send him an email asking about it - he may be amenable to giving it away these days if it's otherwise "abandonedware." Let us know what you find. Likely he'll want to sell you a copy of PCA... :)

Best,

Hi Tom ,Aiimster,Lostcowboy

I got a very nice reply from systematic investing. It was an Aim spreadsheet not an installment type investment spreadsheet.
