I am entering on market momentum which doesn't necessarily carry through to
the projected target. Therefore I find it prudent to take some money off the
table.

Yes, I rely on greater than 50% accuracy and use tight stops. Its the nibble
approach; it gives me more flex time.

If you are trading three contracts, with the first two earlier exit to
enhance
profits, your entry must be very accurate, otherwise you would simply lose 3
times as much on any losing trade, which could, in a 40% accuracy system,
have
disastrous drawdowns.
