hello thanks richieD, yes these exhaustion trades are always
small gains, it's not a 3:1 reward/risk ratio generally, it's just
looking for a simple mean reversion.
The SPY Pro system also has this trade in it, those trades are
the same way, the gains are small but high probability.
A far stops one could use a stop above the max historical draw
down, or not use a stop and just close the trade out on a close
back below the 8 SMA. You take some heat if it goes against
you but we all know it eventually will close back below that
MA.
here's a couple examples of the trade on the SPY Pro system, the
logic has been in place for a couple years
again I'm simply pointing out to you a statistical event, you
guys choose to take action or not. I'm just the
messenger.
