The ratio adjusted contracts are something new aren't they? I believe CSI
has just come out with those, I use CSI and haven't noticed but I heard that
they were going to add them to the choices of their software. How do these
differ from the perpetual contracts? I have used the perpetual contracts
for years and have been very pleased with the real time results of the
systems that I created on this (what I believe to to be superior) type data.
What are the advantages if any of ratio adjusted data?

ps Lets say present day I have a system that uses a 1500.00 stop on the 30
year bonds. What would that have been some time back in history? I am
much more concerned about controlling losses and drawdown than I am about
profits.
