Hi Friends,
Learning to use effective SLs is the simplest yet the most powerful piece in 'Protecting Capital'.
The way I use my SLs under this strategy is that once my initial position has moved in more than 100 points profit, I use my entry point as my SL.
Though this sounds very naive to do that but it serves two very important functions:
1. First of all it avoids whipsaws. Ideally, in a good trade, when we make an entry based on 315, I would expect our ADD to happen once my initial position is in good profit. This means that after the initial entry, the market has trended in the direction of our position, corrected to touch 15 EMA and gave us an 'ADD' without touching our initial entry point. THIS IS A STRONG SIGN OF A TRENDING MARKET HENCE MAKES OUR TRADE MORE POWERFUL.
Cheers
