  4. Thanks for the help ScalperJoe,

    That day was just a bad emotional day for me. I usually use 2pt stop. And does 2 losses I took, price actually turned in my favor.

    I learn from it and keep going.

    To answer your question from a few pages back, you have nothing to worry about, if they don't know the entry/exit "conditions" and "logic" that make up your system, there's no way they can steal it just by seeing where your entries and exits are executed.

    Less alarming! (I'd certainly be much more comfortable, myself, with a 2-point or even 9-tick stop.)

    How do you calculate your stop-loss?

  9. Morning gkishot,

    I don't have away to calculate the stop loss mathematically. The stop loss used is based on my empirical data of ES price action from the amount of time past spent viewing the chart. This stop loss may change in the future if the price action change in the future. The stop loss also makes sense to me in terms of risk vs reward.

    Overall, I am enjoying TST and the benefits it provides my trading at this stage in my trading career.

    I have the same problem: the longer I've looked at it for, the wider my SL is.
