Harvey,
I think we have it! Adam's contribution was good, except, it
made me scratch my head because I still couldn't correlate the
buy and sell signals with the indicator. This exact formula is
the one I "optimized" in 1979 and had great success with in the
futures market. Now, it's public domain! We could keep it
secret, hold seminars, and charge thousand$ of dollar$ for the
knowledge. How about an early December seminar at
Whistler/Blackcomb to coincide with the opening of ski season?
Or, maybe one in the middle of July on the shores of Okanagan?
And finally, could we do the Love Boat seminar, up through the
inner passage? I guess we blew it, nobody is going to pay us if
we give it away free. Thanks again to you and Adam for your
gracious help (and of course, I would be interested in any and
all of your work).
