Alex,
The name of the setup is "Knock Thrice" page 5 of "Tricks of the Floor Trader"
. You basically have the setup. He (Neal T. Weintraub) doesn't give you
specific buy stop, stop loss, or sell position, that is discretionary.
For me the buy stop would be 4 points over resistance along with big volume.
On all of my trades I look to gain 5-10% per trade. Then look for the next
setup.
I don't trade the DOW or S&P but do watch, reason the stocks I trade are part
of the Dow and S&P.
Trade Well,
Joe Frabosilio
