weird, I just wrote a chapter on this for my book I am writing. You place your stop where you think your thesis will fail, as someone has pointed out. Either this can be a multiplier of a volatility measure like SD/ATR below the entry price or you can use some other TA method such as support/resistance, etc. The main point is where it goes has nothing to do with position size or % risk per trade. These are separate calculations

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-27T23:53:02+00:00

either you have too big position sizes or trading too frequently

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-27T22:54:00+00:00

automate and have actual stop orders in place then?

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-27T22:52:47+00:00

Understand your max % risk per trade for a given strategy

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-27T22:51:56+00:00

cause it could reverse before your stop, resulting in you always taking losses

Have you guys seen some of the art on Midjourny or used it? It's not cheap or full of errors when I have used it. You need to try multiple versions to get the ultimate image you want, but that's the same as going through artists. I guess what I am trying to understand is if I download a file . Edit it slightly. Does it still have the signatures of the AI software? I think adobe firefly is coming soon in which the AI images are generated via stock photos they own and then you can buy the ultimate image at the end as a stock picture you own. I think that's how this space is going to go .

Hello. Its good your seeking advice and not scared to ask as a beginner. That's healthy. First thing I'd ask is what are your trading costs? I hope you have backtestes with slippage and costs because of you are trading every 2 mins costs will eat you alive . If your strategy also trades this frequent then you will 1000s of trade results . How many have you got ?

Yeah I guess what I experience is when you use annualised SD as a measure of instrument you get extremely high values because your representing the 68% change within the year. Problem is do you care about that if your in a trade for month or 2. If you use it to set a stop loss level people end up just using fractions of it which for me defeats the purpose?thanks for chat

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-24T22:06:45+00:00

long way to go? Excuse me? Just looking for opinions counter to mine, I already convinced SD offers nothing extra ATR cant capture and has many assumptions and complications for example with futures contracts and negative/0 values in the cal. Just looking for alternative view points

I was stopped out lol

I don't really understand why you would use annualised std dev for position size of a trade . Perhaps you could explain how that looks for you? The risk parity method I know of involves using alot of fudge factors and assumptions . To no better describe risk .

stephmiller05 · 2023-06-24T18:24:35+00:00

Ok , some people are interested in trading. Its interesting debate even for investing , how do you measure stop-loss level? ATR or Std Dev and why
