Hi Bernie, In my AIM Basics and Improvements examples at the web site, all those examples are done as Mr. Lichello suggested. Those were "time based" trades throughout. That's the only way to present such data, IMO. Otherwise, there's way too much room for fudging the numbers.

I've been using my gtc orders successfully for a decade now. I don't feel that I've suffered too much for this transgression!! The reason I developed the math for the next buys and sells was specifically to take AIM to a low key level while still garnering trades on the blips and dips - and not to fight long term trends.

Most business plans aren't "one liners" and neither is the AIM method. Also, just as certain business practices work in one neighborhood, they don't work as well in another. This is why I customized AIM for Veale's Intl. Equity Warehouse. It works well the way I use it in my neighborhood.

For the sake of all who read here, it took YEARS to get this comfortable with AIM!! It took YEARS to get comfortable enough with the Idiot Wave to publish my reports. It took YEARS to get comfortable enough with the IW to actually use it as a guide for my investment decisions! I hope all are benefitting from the experiences that I've had as an AIM investor.

Understanding AIM is a quick enough experience, but actually experience with AIM takes a whole market cycle! The bull's been raging for so long that many have forgotten what an awful experience THE BEAR is. I was investing my first hard earned $$$ back in the late '60s and early '70s. It was PAINFUL!! I DCA'd into that BEAR - a good lesson. The '70s taught me much on how to handle a big bad BEAR. I was somewhat unprepared for the Bull when it came. Took time to adjust my thinking from the BEAR Doomsday thinking that I'd grown to "love!"

That's all for now!!! My GTC orders are placed and I'm off with my neighbor to 9 holes of golf on a beautiful Wisconsin morning! Thanks go to Bernie for helping all here come back to focus on why we're here!!!

Best regards, Tom
