this is just an idea to consider because believe me, I know your pain. that is sick stop out. been there.

this kind of shit made me switch to something mentally easier --- entering on stops. this entry method allows you to stick a stop in at the swing low because you are entering AFTER the swing low.

enter on buy stop at the parabolic... or write your own indicator to do something similar.
Interesting, I may just borrow that method after some backtesting.

So buy when the sar passes through and use the swing low as your stop loss.
Nice.

Thanks
