1500 * past_volatility / current_volatility
it's gotta be adaptive to keep working in the future.... but, of course,

yup.... at least in the sense that i'm sure you mean it..... the
important thing is the ratio of profits (reward) to drawdowns (risk)...
determining the true risk going forward is what all these fancy calcs
are about and thomas is right that you will probably have to go outside
ts to do that
ps - i didn't mean to bark at thomas.... bad trade this morning and i'm
grumpy... <g>
