I have talked quite a lot on Twitter about a new Index Spreadbet System that I have been designing for about a month, and I have had long discussions with several friends regarding what the faults are and ways it can be refined and improved.
 
My intent was to produce a detailed Blog about the System and to includes loads of Examples of it in practice, but with my Health niggles that is too difficult at the moment, and for now I have just bashed something together quickly based on some email discussions with mates.
 
The attraction of the System is that it is expected to generate in the region of 40%+ CAGR on the Initial Capital Employed and a higher ROCE based on the Average Capital used. In addition, it has controlled and limited risk and for most of a given year, we do nothing whatsoever – in fact, my biggest potential flaw that has been spotted is that if we Hedge too often, then the Returns will be reduced.

I’m not sure why, but not only is my Stomach misbehaving today whilst I type this text bit before the Charts (thank goodness I was sneaky enough to write the Charts stuff last night), but I am also feeling really quite tired. I don’t think I had all that late a night but I was awake ‘early’ to watch the MotoGP warm-ups and maybe things are catching up with me.
 
It is a bit awkward because I would normally pump myself full of Coffee and eat some Snickers Bars or something just to keep me going; but with my ongoing Stomach hassles I am trying not to drink Caffeine and Sugar Bars are out really and this is especially the case between meals, where I think ‘grazing’ is not giving my Stomach Lining any time to recover before the next load of Acid is pumped into it from my Gal Bladder (I am no expert, but I think that is roughly how it works).
