This is truly wonderful -- it'll take me some time to work through this, I will admit! I believe the second posting approach gives me the ability to create rolling backtests of X trading days and form some pretty interesting conclusions.

Thank you!

Two questions:

1) What does "_BCC0" reference? I've googled the heck out of it and came up empty handed

2) There was prior mention of proxies for EW indexes (such as 30% S&P500 index 70% mid cap index) yielding roughly the same results. Would anyone care to offer their views on this topic?
