Hi Bill, I use both Price and Time as considerations for my trading. I set up my minimums for trading (and really don't fiddle much afterwards) and then place my GTC orders for both the buy and sell sides. Since I'm usually trading 5% or less of my position as a minimum, it hardly makes a bit difference.

Now, if I get one trade this week, usually I'll wait a week before placing the next set of minimum trades. On some stocks I wait longer - only because I've learned more about their "habits."

Like a good marriage, AIM and its inventory need to be compatible for best results. AIM's so darned forgiving that we can take a boring utility and AIM it or the latest DOTCOM. AIM will do its job no matter what. It's just a matter of what overall strategy we're attempting. Certainly a 30-year-old with no kids and a six figure income has a different perspective on RISK, GOALS and RETIREMENT than does a 65-year-old! AIM's diet just can't include salmonella, botulism, or cryptosporidium!

My vote is still to keep AIM stock suggestions here on this thread. I'm very flexible, however!

Best regards, Tom
