north* has left a new comment on your post "BE1 and SE1":
Congrats...another positive day yesterday.
Once BE3 was filled and the market bounced, I see a SS (sell stop?) at 1356.25 Did you mean 1386.25, a tick above the low of the day?
Posted by north* to Saxon at January 16, 2008 9:40 AM
Yes the Sell Stop (SS) was set at 1356.25; that is the point I determined that the position would have been terminated yesterday.
Your observation North hit spot to a question that I am still ruminating on.
That is, an aspect of this Fishbone Trade that I have no relevant data on getting stopped out because I never have been.
I have some ideas for the SS but I have not come to a reasoned SS for lack of data.
I hope this is helpful.
