Default target profit is 6, stop loss 7. It might change as I take the trades depending on how the orders get filled.
Patch wrote:Does your trading plan include a single reversal, close and reopen trade in opposite direction if price crosses the short target entry?
No. I only trade once per hour. If it busts, then so be it.
Patch wrote:Or can you change your entry target for long and short to 2.2.
I do not see any point in doing that for now. This method has been tried and trusted and I'm not going to mess around with it
Great traders have laid it all out already, and all I want to do is use it

Sorry Patch, I'm not going to Yale. I'll be honest and admit I have no idea what you are talking about
Patch wrote:Also have you considered lowing you profit target and stop loss? I wonder what would happen?
I'd rather stick to the trading plan for now.
Patch wrote:I will put the tails indi back on my chart over the weekend. I was putting some ideas together with charts and removed the tails part to lessen clutter and confusion. I miss it though.
I'm sorry, I'm not the right person to chat about wicks and tails. I have no idea what they are all about

Thanks for your interest.
Speak soon,
Ken.
