WSM: Move Stop to 26.40

Where to put the trailing stop? I hate to give up a gain. On UHS my target was 36.75 ( about 3X risk.) When the price gets close to the target I use a 1 to 1 risk reward to determine where the stop should go. So when UHS hit 36.54, 21 cents from the target I placed my stop 21 cents and a bit...

Close.:) I trade for income. Anything I make this week goes into my bank account. When I have a losing week, and I do, then I have to get my account back to break-even before I withdraw any more. Any surplus gets invested.

I'm trying....:) What do you consider reasonable? How about a system that has a 30% win rate; 60 % losers; 10 % breakeven Risk to reward 1 to 3 Risk 1% of account per trade Take 12 trades per week.

I really believe that I along wih several others have tried. What would you have me do?

I'm the opposite.I have found that I do better when I swing trade. Swings take the emotion out of it. Set ups are found during the quiet time. Stops and targets placed with the order and managed daily rather than minute by minute. That said go with what works for you. I’m not the guy who...
