Nice trades so far. What do you look for to enter a position and how do you determine your stops


Thanks. Mainly I'm just trading the trend. I identify a long trend and a short trend depending on personal preference, I also use discretion on whether to take the trade or not. The stops are just an arbitrary "disaster stop" based on above or below x number of previous bars. I never intend on exiting a position by being stopped out. My exit strategy should get me out before I get stopped out. If it doesn't, the stop is there just in case something big happens I don’t foresee. My exits at this time are 2 parts discretionary(dependent on my feel) and 1 part based on a system I use. The 2 parts/1 part will change as I move up or down in position sizing based on how well I do. There are times I stray from different parts of this. I've been trading for about 10 years. I hope this answers your questions without giving away too much(not that it matters) ha.
