    My exact points are based on market volatility, location of entry (proximity to important points such as yesterday high and low), and the type of trade (breakouts have tighter stops than reversals). Generally I keep the stop to less than 1/4 of the range between the upper and lower bands of a 2 std. dev. Keltner Channel on the time period I'm trading.
     
  4. this question is totally pointless (as are these simple answers).

    stop "losts" are completely dependent upon your time frame, trade potenial, risk, goals etc etc. simply knowing someon'e stop means nothing in and of itself.

    why did you ask such a meaningless question?
