On my previous Post on the SPY Demo Run performance:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=77085787
I have forgotten to give the number of shares in the Portfolio:

@
03-01-2011 … Ns = 44
26-06-2012…. Ns = 64

Although the net value of the SPY Fund has increased in 1,5 years. . .inclusive a net gain on (Interest Earning - Trading Costs) . . . only by 7,6%, the number of shares has increased significantly by 45% !!!! . . .simply by way of mildly aggressive Vortex AIM Trading.

This is a powerful demonstration that using the general methods of AIM Trading, and in particular Vortex AIM Trading, investing in a relatively low-volatility fund like SPY is now. . .(the last 1,5 years have been rather "quiet" for it). . .one can achieve a rather strong Portfolio Share Base Growth!

This is simply achieved by setting the Trade Aggression Factors for low volatility equities between 0.5 and 1. In the Demo these factors have been retained @ 0.8 for buying and 0.6 for selling from the beginning.

From this it can be seen that the buying is 1/3rd more aggressive than the selling.
This is done on purpose to foster share quantity growth automatically. . .I call this the Retirement Kitty Building Plan. One could of course choose it the opposite way after retirement and then I would call it the Retirement Income Plan. . .when the equity price drops the remaining cash is momentarily used effectively to create more retirement income later, but in the main the portfolio equity value is steadily wound down because of more aggressive selling than buying. . .to provide retirement income!
