well,

I am at a disadvantage here because I don't know what a
a ROCAR is (return on ...)

also, I did not use a 1% minimum trade. As I understood it,
that was a limitation of the 401k. I used a $1000
minimum trade as that is a ProFund minimum. I did test
larger minimum trades (3-5% of Stock Value) but that did not
produce as good results. I just ran $1k/20/20 and the
results were not good

here is what I got

$1k min trade SAFE 0/2
UOPIX
date / share price / #shares / cash / portfolio value
3/21/99 35.67 939 16,500 50,000
5/26/00 57.64 1202 13,943 83,254

if I use $1k min trade/ SAFE 20/20
I get
5/26/00 57.64 743 42,825 77027

I have no idea how curve fitted my values are for this
particular time period for UOPIX - I chose the start

date because that is when the data I had started. My friend
has data going back about a year longer and the results
are comparable. I picked values because of what my friend
said from the LV conference and what worked.

The above results for weekly periods are better for a 100K
account than for a 50K account.

strictly speaking - to day trade AIM you would have to
tradesome intraday period of time - I am look into it for 5
minute bars

however for trading on a daily basis, I do better for the
50K account by about $5k and about $3k worse for a 100k
account. HOWEVER, I have more shares for the 100k account
on a daily basis, so $3k less migth be quickly offset, I
will be looking
