ST-Trading, RE: "What are your stop-loss and cover prices?"

Jacob, My old guidelines of 5-10% short-term gains and losses are reasonable here (IMO). Once again, I'm not looking for the kill, I'm just hoping to accumulate more winning trades than losing trades. At the moment, the ranges look like this:

AMAT average cost currently around $35.50, cover around $32, stop-loss around $39
LRCX average cost currently around $19.70, cover below $18, stop-loss above $21
