Aimagic....thanks again for your efforts.

Let me look over your sheet and get to your questions.

Thanks for your patience! Life has been hectic these past few days.

Aimagic,

Once, again great job on the minimum buy/sell coding! I like the way you made it adjustable as well. The speadsheet is nearly identical in functionality to the X_DEV program, so I can't thank you enough!

Those are some great results on CELO!

The minimum $ amount is there to prevent very small $dollar amounts from being signaled. Doesn't make sense to trade $5 - $150 or whatever if your portfolio size is over say $20,000. But to each his own. Now that you have made it adjustable (like the program) the user can choose whatever suits his needs.

The minimum signal is something I brought over from the AIM algorithm. It is extremely useful for tuning the X_DEV algorithm to produce the best signals. I could probably describe the intricate math that causes this functionality but I doubt it's necessary. It would be like describing how the intricate electrical components of a TV function to produce the signal. I rather just turn the damn thing on and watch a movie...lol.

As far as choosing which assets are best for X_DEV. I just go with high quality high volatility plays. I need to have confidence the asset will not collapse into obscurity in a black swan event or a prolonged bear market.
