I just finished reading a book by Tharp called Trade your way to financial freedom.

One of the concepts mentioned was stops. He mentioned ATR, average Trading range, a 10 day moving average of the trading range (hi minus low).

His monetary loss was set to 2% of trading capital per trade. So if the ATR was 2 points, he would set a stop $6 below his entry.

The number of shares purchased would equal 2% of capital divided by $6.

Does this make sense to anyone?
