Where were your protective stops Doug? Huh? Well??

Well, Dough, you raise an old question that I have been thinking about...protective stops!

Before I came on SI, I kept a daily spredsheet where I place stops just below the previous day's low in an up mkt...then I "learned" that posted stops were just a target for the MMs.

I was too slow afoot to sell this thing...so I am lucky as Greg says...

I would love to use this as an occasion to rediscuss the posting of sell stops vs the mental stops......Anyone?
