Description

Note for the faint of heart… A quick word if you are very new. When a trader takes a trade, that trader will always (should always) have a point at which they feel the trade is no longer working and therefore have to exit. This protects the account so that you don’t take your account down to zero hanging onto garbage. That level at which you exit is called your stop. You can stop out of the trade by sitting there and hitting a button or you can stop out by putting an automatic stop in your trading platform so it will exit you from the position even if you are not there. This discussion is an ultra-advanced talk about using stops and be sure you listen to the introductory comments. If you have been around for a while, this may not be what you expect.
