I've back tested a few things brought up on the various AIM boards, here are the results...

In general,

1. starting with 80/20 usually gives better results than 67/33 or 50/50.

2. Using a minimum transaction size of 10% stock value usually gives worse results than 5%.

3. Monthly updates usually give worse results than weekly or daily updates.

4. The decay method, recently resurrected, didn't appear to work well. The vast majority of results I saw created decreased performance.

regards,
Mark.
