Fred,
if I understand you correctly, your formula should match the AB one if I
replace LogEq with Eq (both in m and KRatio). Unfortunately, it doesn't.
Any other ideas?
BTW: I need the formula in order to compute K-ratio for the concatenated
IS and OOS equity curves and I would prefer the formula used by AB
(unless TJ will implement that in v. 5.21 anyway).
Greetings,
Thomas
