The above is one of the original "Turtles" and has released a couple of free chapters from his new book.

Confused -

I am wondering if anyone knows how the "Dollar per Point/Pip/Cent" is calculated? Apparently the Turtles made Volatility Adjustments to their position sizes and the calculation is --

Dollar Volatility = ATR(period) x Dollars per Point.

There definition for trading Heating Oil states Dollars per Point = $42000 (42000 gallon contracts with price quoted in dollars).

What would stock Dollars per Cent equal?

couldn't edit prev. post... but it is also suggested in numerous places of using $1 for stocks.

I cannot/will not vouch for accuracy however
