"My Kingdom is not of this world."

Some might say that the homeowner now has a mortgage that reflects the true value of the home. Seems to me that home prices still go down.

The majority kept their jobs during the 1930's, you know, during the Great Jobless Recovery.

What on earth is a "jobless recovery" anyway? Oh yeah, and that thing that happened back in the 1930's wasn't a recession, either.

There may be plenty of clueless taxpayers who would fall for this, but what about the creditors? Are they clueless, too? Maybe I am too simplistic in my understanding, but what is the difference between never getting your money back and getting paid back with worthless paper? Isn't it in...

A simple hardness test would instantly reveal the difference. I wouldn't be surprised if you could actually feel the difference in your hand, gold-plating not withstanding.

I don't know about tradestation, but this problem is not unique to that platform. Every charting package I use behaves this way. Those who are skeptical of fibs altogether will likely find this whole discussion ridiculous, but the issue of linear vs. log fib grids is very important. One way...
