Hello Conrad,

you take the historical view, and I have no problems with that at all. It's just that systematically it's not a very good idea to call Vortex AIM-like, but I am repeating myself. I have two nits to pick in your reply:

... recalling what the simple DCA instrument actually amounted to I conclude that the Vortex Method has far less similarity to DCA than to Lichello's AIM. Yup, and less similarity is a systematic argument. The similarity with the CDP is much greater, though.

AIM BTB refers to the AIM variant(s) described by Lichello in his books, more specifically the 33% or 50% cash variety, with a 10% Safe and monthly updates. No Vealies, no Safe tweaking, no GTC orders, no half-way-to-the-wall etc. etc., that are used all over this board. AIM BTB can't be used for those tweaks, because they are not in the book... At least, that is how the term AIM BTB is used on this board by most people...
