very good.

It's the big moves that will make you the big money...

just a suggestion, have a look at bigger stops

Just curious, how large are your stops?



I keep getting picked off with my .05 stops


I'm going to start posting in this thread.

That's weird, I use .06 stops and never get picked off.

Are you serious? I am not.

I guess I will try .15

There is a way of using very tight stops like 5 ticks....I've done it in the past, but doesn't really suit me too well since i prefer to trade breakouts.

You can see how large my stops are, usually 70-100 ticks. But i am a position trader, not intraday trader.
