    Oh hang on.......I should change the ratio from 1.0 progressively until I see CVCX when called up showing optimum bets close to what I want, then the RA indices will be correct for my style?

    Well, yes you can increase the ratio. That will decrease the RA index. The lower your Kelly risk level, the closer your index is to EV-max.

    Edit: Think I misunderstood. Yes, you can change the CVCX Kelly risk (RoR) to see the change in bets. I was referring to the RA index ratio in CVData.

    But you can't decrease it below 1.0, which I believe is what would be required to simulate the betting style Don mentioned in order to see a higher index. I think I'm getting a better idea of how that works.

    I don't allow below 1.0 which would mean higher than 13.5% RoR. At that RoR, many doubles could be quite risky.

    Sounds fair enough.
