Hello.

It's an idea (ATR % thing): let's look into it.

Again: the reason you're getting sort of 'either / or' answers with Silver for instance is because of pretty much the same reason I think. Silver is ALSO one of those instruments where is you use the EXACT CSI formula it also gets a high CSI value and I can tell you from experience that Silver is really a 'dog' to trade i.e. sometimes it can just meander in a range for hours and hours on end and 'in my book' that does not make for 'stirling' trades and therefore I don't think 'warrants' or 'deserves' a high CSI rating.

The only other thing that I can think of is that maybe applying the same 'PIPFACTOR' that I devised for the Swing Index System will 'get the CSI in line' i.e. a 'constant' i.e. now 'comparing apples with apples'. I'll take a look later on today.
