Tom, by now it doesn't surprise me that AIM consistently matches TA results - without, of course, the "thrill" of being whipsawed and completely missing "power surges" like yesterday's.

I think that, at first anyway, AIM appears to work almost by magic. At least it did to me, so I picked up Robert Lichello's book out of curiosity. When I saw how AIM adjusts stock positions only ~5% at a time, the strength of Mr. Lichello's logic made immediate sense to me. The rough market this past April probably "clarified my thinking" too!

Maybe it's one of those things you have to be looking for already before you "see" it. I don't know. But there's no arguing with the results and the AIM-versus-TA experiment you described confirms several "What-if?" scenarios I've run on my own.

AIM is that "something-better" I'd been searching for. Maybe it's a question of individual need and circumstance? It sure doesn't surprise me to hear that AIM readership jumps during markets like this.
