2 percent is calculated on Total Liquid Net Worth. This would include the trading account--- Just have one now--used to have two since I decided not to trade around my position anymore.
My view is that we are in a very short term uptrend and I believe that we would need to be in a downtrend to be looking for a bear flag. Rather, a trader might look for a bull flag on the 60.
So if you decide to put a trade on right now in another market with a stop of not more than 2% tlnw, you would be including your current unrealized profit in your es short ?
