Hi Robert and Bud: I concur with Robert on this concept of 'more aggressive' resistance levels inside an IRA. My total AIM basket is inside an IRA rollover account. I started with 10%, but dropped it to 5% after a few months. I've been happy with that. My minimum buy or sell $ do vary basis the total value of the holding however. Most times I keep it @ $1,000, but have moved it up when the volatility seemed to warrant it (COMS was managed this way during it's swings last winter and this spring). It's kind of my "Vealie". I still have been playing around with ways to use historical F&A to assist in determining optimal settings (either resistance and/or minimum). I've also come to the determination that in a GTC order approach tactic, the resistance can be low as long as the minimum is relatively high. That may not make sense to some of you, but consider that the decision point is really some $ amount above or below the portfolio control. And that the $ value of the resistance plus the minimum gets you to that sell point (or buy). Regards, Steve
