    Something to add to my previous post:

    For the method above to make live easier and I think quite dandy, use the average of the premium of the last trading session and add the value to the index.
    I think, it is a good approximation, at least what people think FV of the future is !

    By adding more indicators you are trying to create mental security and not bolster your trading system.

    From my understanding, you are trying to minimize risk by getting a full proof entry method. I'll suggest you to see what happens when a entry gets generated. How the trade unfolds, what is the price movement after the entry point. Use ATR for this

    IF ATR(5) above 10 then Average profitable points and if ATR below 10 then what.

    Play your game with Price and not with your mind.
