Steve,

We may have a semantic problem -- I think. AIM never tells you to set stop losses. It does recommend sell orders and buy orders for a percentage of the amount of stock we hold. If you are setting stop orders that is something different.

Hi Steve- You might want to consider limit orders instead of stop orders. When the market trades thru a stop, the stop order becomes a market order and can be filled at the prevailing price no matter what it is. In a fast amrket that can work to your advantage or to your disadvantage. With a limit order it can work to your advantage as well, but it won't work against you.

Bruce
