General ⇒ Putting Math Symbols or Greek Letters in a Sentence

[bazman]

Hi there,

I want to use greek letters and math symbols in a sentence:

but when I try

I will calculate this for the 6m \rightarrow 1y, 1y \rightarrow 1y, 6m \rightarrow 2y, 1y \rightarrow 2y, 5y \rightarrow 1y, 5y \rightarrow 2y, 10y \rightarrow 1y, 10y \rightarrow 2y, 6m \rightarrow 5y, 1y \rightarrow 5y, 6m \rightarrow 10y, 1y \rightarrow 10y, 5y \rightarrow 5y, 5y \rightarrow 10y, 10y \rightarrow 5y and 10y \rightarrow 10y.

I will use the \rho_t^T \beta and \nu_t^T parameters taken from the implied market on each date. I will switch the quoted \sigma_t^T value for the simple MA calculated as indicated above.

It comes out in one sentence (which extends off the page) and there are no spaces between the english letters?

Please advise

Every basic documentation will tell you that for math formulas it requires math mode. In your case you need in-line math mode which is introduced by $…$ or \( … \).

You should listen to the compiler and what its telling you in the log file. So take a close look at it and you will find the necessary information to fix the errors.
