{quote} So you have 3 positions open with total SL +- 200 pips, if it breaks 2255 and doesn't retrace, right? Just trying to figure r:r.
2255 is current hour trend stop.. it moves with PA and time....if you notice in my daily system update, the 1H trend stop moves up with price or time..unless some strange thing happens suddenly, EU drops all they way and close below 2255 now this hour, my EA will close these three longs, reverse trade to short..in that case, yes 2255 will be my max stop loss..
so all my 3 positions have running stop loss..whenever I post a new EA trade, I always update the trend stop at the bottom, that applies to all previous positions at the current hour for this cycle.... last cycle the shorts from 2/16 to today , my drawdown was 0.59%.. but I had 4.96% return ..so this ea did well on risk management with my exits. hope this helps..

For this cycle, I may take a little more risk to let it run..

Maybe a bit more, if it goes deeper. All your positions are the same size?

No, that wasn't about adding or subtracting. Just defining the max risk in the worst case scenario. Yeah, I know the stops move up (in this case), have been following your system a bit, not in detail, but have kept my eye on it. I need to chart it, I guess.

Thanks!
