So, I take it you are not constructing a kind of attractor basin that AIM builds? The idea of using a majority of funds as a signal is interesting. I suppose that such a value could easily be the target of an evolutionary algorithm, using walk-forward to keep it sound. I am quite interested in the concept of letting a variety of factors mess with Safe, and the triggers of AIM. These could include such things as, say, an MACD oscillator on the equity one is trading with AIM to bias the basin according to relative "strength". Another might include the slope of the trendline it is following. With a weak trend, one might pay more attention to relative strength oscillators, but with a strong trend, one might ignore the oscillator alltogether and just bias for hard sell, easy buy, or whatever. The ultimate question is: could that sortof thing be coded in WB script? Because, if not, it must be coded elsewhere, say, in a Java, c++ or VB program. Jack
