Some put 1/2 point, some 1 point, some even goes to the great length of considering 7%...

Some use TA to find a likely support or resistance area and base their stops on that, rather than an arbitrary number of points or a percentage.

Even further, some find the stop FIRST using TA, then decide how many shares they can take based on that risk using an acceptable percentage of account size for a loss.
