Quote from NoDoji:
Example of a breakout trade from this morning. Shorted 1 tick above the test of the low and targeted a measured move down based on the breakout of previous support (75.59) to the low I shorted (75.29), but I added 2 ticks for good measure because I've had so many targets missed by 1 or 2 ticks over the past month :eek: That turned out to be a very wise decision!
One other thing: I used a 5 tick stop because real breakouts should have follow-through (failed breakouts can result in rapid moves against you), and I trailed the stop to the high of each 5-min bar as it closed.
