(I will comment more in just a bit on the above, have to shift gears at the moment...)

After much toying around, I think what I'm looking for might be as simple as this:

(note: I prefer it to print in the test log with quit() but i can't figure out how to make quit() display a variable)

What I want is simply a relationship between the BarPeriod and # of bars used in the simulation. I "think" this gives that. (I still have some more tests to verify.) Basically I want an indicator, for comparison purposes, to know if the ratio of BarPeriod:NumBars is dramatically different between strategies.
