Strange.
Yesterday I had changed my program that I
use to look a ratios
of legs in the market to calculate the
ratio of the last leg being
analyzed at any time to the leg before that
and calculate the ratio
of the "leg before that" to the "leg before
that".
In other words the ratio bc/ab
and cd/bc

a c
The attached chart shows the
results.
Although we can say that generally the
lower the AB/BC
ratio is the higher is the CD/BC
ratio.
It appears that the dispersion is too great
for there to
be any statistical significance to this
relationship.
