Hello JP,

When to buy, when to sell -- isn't that what Vealies are about? And, aren't they somewhat a kind of judgement (read: subjective) call?

Yes, that's how I see it.

It sounds like you are doing some interesting work. I can't say that I understand it, but here is what I can say. 'Laziness' just might be a prerequisite for inventiveness, and I hope that you are successful in enhancing AIM as a mechanical trading method.

Where I have some difficulty with a purely mechanical approach is that a human being can at times 'see the writing on the wall'. As an example, a couple of years ago when Asia was in a 'free fall', it made sense to increase buying resistance significantly in order to buy more shares at lower cost as the markets dropped. Now, it's the reverse...I can't believe I am getting Vealies.

Maybe, some type of Reverse Vealie for downdrafts might make sense.

Sincerely, Jack
