It's GREAT to see a lot of good successfull trades in the forum. We CAN because AIMS CAN... or is it... AIMS CAN because WE CAN?? )

I use a few models inside the AIMS framework. This example where AIMS identified for me a C of an ABC.
Fractal building blocks forms an abc before potentially expanding to a w3...

This is handy for me when i sometimes feel unsure about potential profit. Looking at the price activity to the left i was not sure about price inefficiencies, setting a target of 100% FE of previous swing. Or sometimes you want to take the trade but do not have the time to monitor. (AIMS provides the setup, not taking it =potential loss )

Turns out to be the extent of w3 with w5 following to reach drawn blue fib line and beyond (which seems to be well respected on left).

Options:
Using a momentum/dot exit would have hit my be+2 SL, this time.
Using a fractal lower trailing SL would have taken me right to w5 extremes.
In this case, using a 100%FE served provided a quick +10.

What i love about AIMS is how it puts one in the centre of tradable options if you choose to do so although using a standard AIMS strategy does NOT need any variation. It is designed for success..

(I like options, it pushes my interest and development)

Just my thoughts. :-B

Hey Immy. Thanks.
The last thing i want would to be a favourite..
I am working on getting charts cleaner although some of those spaghetti's are my personal favs, in the final sum.

I am sure there are some lurking traders with virgin charts here that take the same opportunities but choose not to post. Let's dig them up. \m/

Thanks Mike. Give the Princess a try in your observations. I have improved since doing that. Whether this is a temporary performance, only time will tell.
Also most important thing i changed was to take more opportunities (setups of course), since i grew tired to see great setups passed because i was too cautious. By doing that, missing these setups i look at afterwards, raised my mind anxiety levels which in turn defeats itself.

If you feel that is too much, reduce lots to absolute minmum possible and just take the damn setups =p~ , it will liberate your view of AIMS.
