the 
KISS principal !   on my RT charts I take it a step further and 
calculate the percentage of the days move as it relates to historical 
percentage. this is very handy as at a glance I can see if the current move is 
note worthy. ATR is a very powerful tool

Thanks for this 
tip.  I should have thought of it.
Like many good 
ideas, it fairly simple to use and obvious once you see it.

Of 
course. Setting a 3% stop loss on a stock whose ATR is 5+% may very well result 
in getting stopped out during the normal trading day. Setting your stop loss to 
reflect a more realistic range for each stock will help keep you in the trade. 
rather than a flat ATR number I like to relate atr to the stocks trading price. 
(ATR/close)*100 will present a percentage reading of the ATR where you will see 
the historical daily percentage price swing of the stock. this may be useful for 
determining your stop. when tied to visible support/resistance levels you may 
better judge the viability of a given trade......

Average Daily Range be helpful in setting Stop Loss limits instead of 
arbitrary limits?  If so, what would the formula look 
like?To unsubscribe from this group, send an email
