markets are ever expanding, if you look at the crash of 87 on a daily chart
does it look so bad today as it did then?  the market price action is not
flat like it looks on a chart.  it in fact is expanding ever bigger and
bigger.  so if my research is correct then you would be a fool to build a
model that uses fixed inputs as parameters.  rather you would use a square
root to determine the expandability of each market - then you would use that
square root to multiply your time frame of trading frequency to come up with
the corrected inputs for the system.  the system would then be self
correcting.  if i am wrong in my research then my idea would still work for
you because then again your inputs would contract and not expand.  either
way the worst thing you can do is to assume that a fixed input will work for
anything other than the short haul..
