thanks,im logging every trade that qualifies .I had 12 months of targets and every trade logged,but have moved house and cant find the log,very frustrating.so im logging here.im more interested in the % of winning trades in relation to the runaways,im looking to find the optimum cut of so I can automate it.there are a number of ways to go .the ratios from 10 to 30 pips are my interest in regards to the stop point.
