Elements of concern above the stop loss
Stop Loss
Is it really profitable to just go with the trend?
Is it really profitable to just chase the trend?
Is it really losing if you trade against the trend?
Is it really losing if you scale in?
Everything depends on market results
Ultimately, because the trend lasts longer, you’re just keeping the profits within that range
It relies on maintaining the result
If you set stop loss at 1:1, you won’t make money; stop loss loses its meaning
The market’s “result”
Capital increase logic is based on “the degree to which the result is sustained”
Small losses, big gains are possible because the “result maintenance” is good
Trend stop loss
Set losses small and profits large
Ahed position trading
Stay with large profits, and exit when losses occur
The market is range-bound
Ahed position trading
The market is trending
Trend stop loss
After all, the market will rise and fall eventually
Trading with stop losses is safer
The market is
Mainly range
Range is either a range-range or a trend range
Sub is trending
Trend is either rapid trend or stair-step trend
Ninpin (averaging down) is profitable in the main market, but
you lose when it switches to sub
Because the switch between main and sub isn’t clear
If you switch to main again later, you’ll incur round-trip losses
Ninpin becomes a major loss if the market moves against you, in principle
You have no choice but to deal with it by ninpin
Ultimately, when you think of ninpin with stop loss
Ninpin, if done repeatedly, yields terribly poor results logically
So it would be better to use a stop loss
Target the trend on 30 minutes to 1 hour
Enter when a trend resumes after a price reversal, on a timeframe where a trend is evident
Entry timeframe
30-minute chart
5-minute chart
15-minute and 1-hour charts are for trend observation
Decide on entry on the 5-minute chart by watching the mid-term envelope movements
