My idea is to manage a trade with the difference of the entry day's high and low:
Stop is today's (high -low)/2.
Example low = 100 high = 101
high - low = 1, Stop @ 100.5
Profit stop when price reaches 101 plus the whole day range 1 , in this case profit stop @ 102
Apologies for my crude way to explain.
What i would like is two columns to put in any filter saying Stop loss and profit stop based on the above.
I think it would be good business practice. Can some kind soul please help.
Kind Regards Thorodin

Manage your trade=Manage your money.If you're going to trade a "day range",you might as well start out with stocks that have the ability to move,open to close,the most distance or with the most volatility.Ck out the "Run Forest Run" filter.Also,higher priced stocks tend to move in larger point amounts.The key is to find a stock that travels the longest distance on a consistent basis.Why risk a half a point loss to capture a point or two gain? You want to maximize your gain,for a 3-5 point move.Trading is a numbers game.Good luck.....
