Re: {REQ} help with an exit strategy

Thanks for you insight. I like the 2 point stop as well. But what I don't like is the false moves in the direction of my stops that catch them and then continue in the direction I wanted them to in the first place.
Do you put your stops into the market or stop it out manually when it reaches that level?

My TS strategy has a 2 point stop but usually I've run up a bit and could have gotton out with a 1/4 point or more or even breakeven before the rundown to my stop.

What I'm actually looking for is tradestation code to take a minimum profit if I've run up and it starts to run down.

Thank you,
JJ
