Re: Targets verse Trailing stops

I'm very interested in this as I have the same issue.
Understanding I'll never get bottom to peak profit, I do think some volatility model for exits perhaps might do better than my current plan.
Currently I trail my stop to the swing high/low and it either leaves good profit OR gets tagged and stopped for break even.

Hoping someone has some good input for us.
