Thanks, i've included (above) the MT4 code i used to test. This is the code that produced the chart i posted previously. I'll see if i can port...

Ok, here's an ultrastripped down version. Grab Row 26 and drag the formulas down as needed.
Hi steve, This is generally how i think of it. As far as i can tell, we're on the same page here. Whether this works or not is up to the...
Ok. I have it set up to take one trade per bar whether its an hour, four, or a day. I can also change the MDRR by changing the number of...
The following pic represents another way that i've heard/read NukeTheWhales31 explain the concept: [img] I've not tested this yet, but i will.
Well whatever the problem is, i hope to get to the bottom of it in a few weeks. This pic represents the basic concept as i have understood it....
I just checked. For the Philippines, the average annual inflation rate for the last 9 years is 4.88%. Assuming they are fudging the numbers...
I like Asia. In the mid-90's i liked the way every dollar i brought to the Philippines seemed to double in buying power. Hmm...Let's say i have...

Wow! :( That's pretty sobering. So then, if you had to choose between relying on wage increases to keep up, or trading (performance)...
You're right about the 5.59% annual rate of compounding increase. So, if you're also right about the 6-8% (inflation/destruction) then we are...
Thank you!
If this is hell, then you've already got one! :eek:
I see! Would you consider a 40 year period to be relatively short, thus indicating hyperinflation and currency destruction? Hmm...how did you...
I'm not sure how to interpret this. If a crystal ball said the Dow would be 9x it's current value in 40 years, you would take all your money out...
If you had a crystal ball that told you the Dow would be at 100,000 in 2050, how would you trade the overall market for max gains?
What would be the effect of using a bull calendar spread instead? Anybody?
I've been testing the original idea in the first part of this thread. First i set it up in Excel on OHLC data and got positive results...
