Why did you use +/- 2tics instead of 1?

For almost all of my systems, I use 2 ticks and also the other side of the 50's and evens. There are many times when the highs or lows of previous bars are taken out by 1 tick due to noise.

For me personally, I always have my exit stops on the other side of the .50's and even numbers as those are numbers where people tend to accumulate orders.

good food for thought, thanks. I am looking at this "any 15 min candle range" and instead of .5 going only for .3

Whats the cheapest realtime streaming chart out software/website out there?

Globalfutures' StrategyRunnerLite is pretty cheap, but that's a trading platform as well as chart datastream.

YM broke out of 13494 long for 10 (and more, but I'm only counting the target) points right after 5:45.

1 win for +10
yesterday 1 loss for -7

I guess I should keep a running total...
