Stop loss orders — how do you use them and what tricks can help you maximize them?
With volatile stocks, you don’t want to overstay. But these stocks can be choppy. That means you get stopped out ... only to see the stock reverse and the trade work out as you thought. So frustrating!
How can you avoid this mess? You have to set smarter stop levels.
First, you want to avoid all obvious stop-out points, basically when a stock goes red … That’s especially true on low-volume plays.
When you calculate entry and exit points, you need to keep these obvious stops in mind. Also, you want to properly size your position … Don’t size in too much.
Bohen has a great example in this video. Tune into to see how he breaks it down with Workhorse Group Inc. (NASDAQ: WKHS).
You must pay attention to volume when you set your stop losses. So avoid low-volume premarket levels. And try to avoid whole-dollar/half-dollar prices — a lot of traders set their stops there.
When you’re dealing with highly volatile stocks, you have put more thought into your trading plan. If you just pick a stop, you risk getting booted out of the trade and missing it altogether.
You want to build your account, get over the PDT, and work toward your goals, right?
If you constantly get stopped out, you can get frustrated. And that can drain your energy and confidence. Or it might cause you to overtrade or revenge trade. Avoid that at all costs!
The snowball effect can be detrimental to your account and your mentality. So plan ahead. Prepare. Use these tips to help you stay focused and maximize your consistency.

    Great Video. I've learned this approach from you and I use it to set my stop limit, limit sales order and target (goal). I use you process with the Oracle S&R levels available with the STT Platform. Yes, you can draw your own S&R lines, buy Why? Use the Oracle Tool with the STT Platform.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ChocolateModelsOfficial says:

    Yep I was putting my stops in obvious places when I started. I was obsessed with 10 cents stops with full position, then I switched to 30 cents stops with 1/3 position and added to my position if stocked moved in my direction. That helped a lot.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Limulus Sang says:

    Position size!!! I love that tip about do not have too big of a size! Thank you!

    I have seen the pattern you talk about regarding stops at obvious 1.00 or .50, and I now put my stop losses at like 4-8 cents below what I originally predict (factoring in risks too ofc!).

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Glenn Kovacs says:
