Re: Assigning variable values to specific tickers

["hmab1" <hmab@xxxx>]

Thanks Anthony.

Continuing along the same train of thought...

So, if I want to find out what the optimum values are for each of 
the 10 tickers, I guess there's 2 ways of doing it.

1. Run an optimization for each ticker individually which has 3 
optimization vars. More manual work but probably less computing 
needed.

2. Run an optimization for all tickers at once which has 30 (3x10) 
optimization vars. Less manual work but more computing needed.

Am I correct or is there a better way of doing it ?
