jesso,

I'm most interested in what you come up with wrt stops. In particular, I'd like to be able to set a disaster insurance stop at a meaning point, something that would get me out of the trade if I'm away from the screen when some type of major price move occurs. I was looking at using a 13 or 15 SMA as the stop level, but haven't gotten too far with the idea, yet.

Tradestation, as I understand it, has many more options available for testing stops and entry variations.

I'll look at 4/8 vs. 5/8 later, but in the few I checked, there were just as many where 5/8 was better, but it was only a small sample.
