profit – true as my stop is usually quite large on 4 hr tf and can handle the extra 2 or 3 pip spread. You would be an unlucky bastard if you kept get stopped out and needed 1 or 2 pips more in your stop
Ive experienced that with an optimized stop loss i have several times been 1-2 pips away from stop loss but not been stopped out, its quite fun to watch! just a fun fact lol.. also ofc ive seen price hit my stop just 1-2 pips to far down.. also seen targets been missed/hit by just 1-3 pips. Its fun lol
I coded the MFE trailing stop to include a second trailing stop loss level. So if im just like 3-5 pips away from target my trail would close in tight.
