Entry vs Risk

Hello omega-list,

I  think  one  of  the primary problems with any trader is not as much
entries  as  it  is  the  risk taken after the entry. Of course others
would  argue  that a good entry helps define what that risk should be.

How  many  have gotten in a trade with pre defined stop loss amount in
mind and seen it just take them out of the market. Then see the market
continue  in  the  direction that you wish it had of done in the first
place?

More  than  likely  the  very  price  direction that your eye saw that
persuaded your brain to take action about was in fact correct. However
you  timing  was  off  and  the fear greed demons come crawling out to
force  you  to  enter  the  trade  without  fully  examining  all  the
possibilities  of  what  was  about to happen to you.

In  fact  try  this  next  time - if your convinced that the market is
going  a  certain direction then place a trendline where you would buy
it.  Then  using the SP as an example place a trendline 3 points below
your  entry as a stop and reverse point. From there draw another trend
line  3 points below that as a profit target.

Now  lets  see  which trade makes the most money over time! Yours that
your  eye  has  gotten you into - or - the fail safe reversal provided
and described above. Affectionally called Mark's SOL Reversal system.
