Quote from Pekelo:

I do. Protective stops are the best.

Just like when your position went in your way and you were actually UP by 20+ pts, you could have put a protective stop at breakeven or +10 pts and you wouldn't be at -25 right now.

Nothing beats leading by example. :)

Might have made sense for someone on a shorter time frame than I am on. I saw breakeven as being in the noise as it turned out to be since it was hit.

No, I don`t see that :)

Breakeven was in the noise within the time frame that I am trading as evidenced by the fact that it was tagged. I not interested in using a 58 point stop just to take 15 or 20 point profits. It happens sometimes, but it is certainly not my goal. :)
 
Quote from Buy1Sell2:

Reminder: trades do not have to be posted here, but if they are, they need to contain a real time stop for journal integrity purposes. :)

I use time stops after entry when scalping delta-1. Catastrophic stop of 3-4 points depending on volatility.:eek:
