Thanks madLyfe. Food for thought. Right now I am stopping-out if prices closes above the previous high (if short) or the previous low (if long).

This use to actually be my premium long setup - 45 degree double dip pennant (although there was a lower low) - I use to trade only pennants or breakouts with 1:2 rr




here's another one i might have traded



sorry to digress, I just couldn't help but notice

R.I.P. Joseph Bach (Itchymoku), 1987-2018.
