That is THE problem of having a stop.

I'm trying without a stop BUT am watching it closely. The possibles could get nasty if not careful.

 

[Pat494]

Keeping an eye here

If price goes above lower line then I will buy

Sorry to hear that, news release, is also a matter of luck.

I was lucky on this one but not much on one of my early trade.

hi Mike

For the short I took
1.a bounce off the upper trend line
2. the bulge from the 12 sma
3. the lower indicators
4. the general shape of the whole that comes with practice

No stop & no limit
In fact I was out too soon

remembering of course that no system is 100%
Hope that answers your question

 

[Pat494]

My concentration fades after a while, so I will be back later

Just to update both of my Index trades from yesterday hit their targets overnight.
That was some good news to wake up to.
