[Rien]

Rien's software is Mac software

Actually my "algorithm research" SW is in java, that is, it is supposed to run on any machine that supports java.
And I am not that sure that I want to sell it. The first version which would include AIM will be freeware. That is for sure. But past AIM there are a lot of other interesting algorithms, I am not sure yet on which ones I will include, and if that would be shareware.

Remember the Bull Market and the Vealies? It seems like it's some variation of that.

Well..., it isn't. With Vealies I personally feel that one is cheating AIM. But when you enter them at a stop-loss it WILL be sold eventually at about the right price. But it does give you a chance to profit from a mad rush-up in price. Which standard AIM would not.
I suppose this concept is more similar to the MA-AIM; Moving Averages AIM. Here sells are not implemented until the 50 day MA crosses the 200 day MA downward. For buys, the same but when the 50 day MA crosses the 200 day MA upward. I think it was Don Carlson who came up with this idea. And I am not sure that I got the details correct, if anyone is interested, I would need to dig up old links.

Best,
Rien.
