Howard,


This is very interesting. In testing any addition to a timed stop a system "degrades".


Adding the following stops (1 to 4) individually with the timed stop degrades the system with 1 being least 4 being most degrading (profit,drawdowns) as you mentioned above.


Timed stop +


1. Trailing stop % - exit next bar

2. Trailing stop % - intra day

3. Max stop loss % - exit next bar

4. Max stop loss % - exit intra day


Do/can people here trade without the above stops as a security blanket?
