  Do you run your systems with readjusted stops? If yes why, if no why?

  Hope you all had a great christmas!

  Yes. But the reason will be “strange” to say the least …

  I put an initial Stop so I can visually see where that is. Next though, various reasons may emerge why I would Stop the trade earlier. These reasons are beyond explanation (too many, too complex) and the initial Stop is therefore an Emergency Stop. It should not be reached too often or else I go broke. 🙂

  … I hope I understood your question …

  The readjusted stop you box or have unboxed in proorder starting a system.

  I guess, I did not form the question so well…

   

  I meant Do you run your (automated) systems with readjusted stops? If yes why, if no why? (The one you check or have unchecked when strating a system in Prooder)

  For people asking, please find attached what is readjusted stop and how you can allow your system or not to use them. If you ask me, I think that’s ok to use them, there are so many systems stopped because of the IG stop distance change during live trading! There are countless topics about that in forums..
