Hi Grabber, good luck on your quest for mathematical exactness. I am more a kludge kind of guy. Well, sometimes. What about calculating, with fractional shares and prices in a zillion decimals, the net gain in shares after a Buy-Sell cycle for a certain Safe - Min Transaction Amount setting and then reducing the dollar gain to a percentage, to add after every buy? (Or to split over buys and sells, or ...) I can't imagine a stock to bounce around indefinitely in a trading range anyway ... See also my #msg-1435555.

Just an idea to keep your spreadsheets manageable. (And of course you could try to automate the percentage setting!)

Regards,

Karel
