Russ - I created an excel sheet to calc it, but I don't have a clue as
to what use it is. Critical to the calculation is what he calls 1-R or
'mimimum risk', but this is such an arbitrary number for many systems
that I find expectancy can be any number I want by varying the 1-R
input. I asked Tharp to clarify but just got a condescending reply.
Send me a private email if you want and I'll send you the excel sheet.
