Hi guys!

I have the lastest revision of my AIM method on my site at the following urls if you're interested:

stockwerld.com

stockwerld.com

Be sure to refresh the page if you have been there earlier.

The parameters I have changed from the BTB method are explained on the pages.

I haven't had the time to backtest the new parameters in a longer time frame yet, but the short term results in these 2 examples speak for themselves. My idea was to "push the amoeba" so to speak in the direction of the trend. If the trend is up one can relax the SAFEty measures in AIM and be more aggressive. When the trend is down SAFEty becomes more important and put back in full force.

So in uptrends I have set SAFE at zero on buys and sells, and in downtrends SAFE is set at 10% on buys and sells.

Also, in uptrends I increase Portfolio Control by 1% each updating period, and in downtrends I decrease PC by 1% each period. (Note: in my previous edition I increased or decreased PC by 1% of the current portfolio value. In this latest edition the 1% increase or decrease is on Portfolio Control itself. When a purchase is made, PC is increased by 1/2 the purchase amount. I also have set a minimum buy or sell of at least 10 shares.

Let me know your thoughts if you have them,

Myst
