can it be expressed in a simple mathmatical form. such as: number of stocks owned=n, # times appeared in news=A 2n+A or An i know but if you divide the current quote by the times appeared you dont get a perfect number nor if you subtract the numbers you dont get a perfect number and some quotes have decimals. there is more than just a simple its in the news 9000 so quote gonna be 9000 or 8000 etc.....
