In volatile times I use a 3 to 5 point stop. That kept two trades that would have been losers from being so and became winners instead. In wild times, I reduce position size and increase stops.

Great question apple. Personally, I never try to figure these things out, just take note of the fact. If you don't normally read annual reports, I tell you, they can be very fun and enlightening to read. Give one a try, you'll be glad you did. Just go to google finance, put in the MS ticker...
