think for a moment about what would happen if one of those big candles jumped up and spanked you...

now view the box and the if/then line with this in mind.

G.



if one candle close against me then there is minimum 64pips left and this is 1/3 of the average candles range (on candle close)......

if someone knows a better way how to calculate your initial box let me know...thx

I have a question... When we shedding lots surely the Breakeven line should move further away from current PA as we have accepted a small loss...

Does anyone know whats the best way of accurately calculating this new Break even point?

Stop me if I am being anal...

so is space wars in conflict with "add to where your average price" is below support or resistance?

since we manipulate lots to a certain box size, do i simply add and shred to adjust box size without regard to placing the avg price somewhere "safe"? if so how frequently must i do so?

Space is only the shield, pick up your sword before you get yourself killed :shock:
