Hi Clive, Re: LRS

The LRS's can be made on any long term, monthly, intermediate, weekly, short term, daily - quarterly. Your suggestion of a ladder inside a ladder then would optimize the use of one's cash. While always having upside/downside targets and ranges to work with. This also gives the investor a time perspective of risk/reward and investment horizon if needed. The Big Picture is always available to view.

The advantages are numerous, as the market determines it's levels over time and short term noise is filtered out on the longer term LRS's. I like your ideas about the allocation of cash within each ladder. Once the levels are determined, then those are plugged into the spreadsheet to calculate the cash reserves as with the linear horizontal ladder. This is an advancement of the original idea that everyone can see and easily understand.

I'm asking folks that are layman to TA or math studies to see if they can grasp the idea. So far, the results are positive. Others here can express their comments if they understand the basic concepts.

Best, Tim
