bummer, that pesky edit window closed b4 i could publish my conditionals... copper is up sharply at this hour Copper » 168.70 +3.50 -idea- enact a singular position : no doubling up.. nor doubling down sell short at market price .. roughly 168.5 use fixed percentages for requisite stop loss and target while copper is somewhat volatile, i wouldn't characterize it as being too wild a 5% stop-loss seems about right I like to seek a 2:1 risk ratio, at minimum Thus: sell to open @ roughly 168.5 stop-loss @ roughly 177 price objective @ roughly 151.5 [of course, actual futures contracts will rise or fall at a magnitude greater than the day-to-day spot market fluctuation. Therefore, the above set-up is purely hypothetical.]
