    Arvabelle you are a natural born teacher, your content is clear and concise, you have plenty of common sense and it shows in your teachings, you know what it means when you Assume, that’s what the others here on RUclips do, they Assume you know what the heck there talking about , when you don’t because your new and they have ten years of trading under there belt. So you feel like a idiot because you watched a 30 minute video and got nothing from it.
    From one teacher to another you get it and you got it. I’m new to trading , so I’m learning, I have stocks , options and dabble in futures

    @ShalowRecord 2 года назад +1

    I'm new to stock trading but what i realized with what you called a "gap" or "halt" This happens when the stock makes a drastic change up or down by 10% in a short time, they stop any buy orders and sell orders. So to avoid your orders being halted and being screwed. I set a trailing stop at 10% or less on pump and dump because if what ever reason the stock drops quickly, your order gets filled before there's a "gap" or gets "halted"

    @Guilhem12806 3 года назад +8

    This covered everything I wanted to know. Spot on. As a visual learner, it was exactly what I needed. Thank you!!! Now the hardest part is figuring out that trigger delta percentage or dollar amount for each trade...

    • @walfordiii
      @walfordiii 3 года назад

      Precisely. Say for instance you were to protect your gains of 100%+ what would be a good trigger Delta percentage for such a trade?

    • @timmoore6055
      @timmoore6055 3 года назад +1

      @@walfordiii Dome people will use what is called the Average True Range, or ATR; the most common is a 14 day ATR. If you poke around you can probably find the math to use to set up a spread sheet; but easier is to use a charting program; TC 200 or STock Charts both will have it (you may need to do some setup). even with that information, it is up to you to decide how much of that you wish to use. for example, the ATR may be $2.27, to pick a number. That would be fairly tight stop, as in the last 14 days the stock averaged that much move. Or you might want to do some multiple of the ATR; 2x or maybe 2.4x . One ETF I trade had some large down moves; after taking the ATR I fgound tht the largest down move in a day was 2.4x. Hope that helps.

    @HuyNguyen-vn5rp 3 года назад +3

    Thank you for making this video. It confirms my understanding of the trailing concept. Very helpful to see your graphic comparison side by side. Question:
    • Is there a an indicator you would recommend to help gauge the how far the temporary dips might go for say a 14 trading period?
    • Does price gap typically happens more so in penny stocks, as suppose to big cap S&P 500 or S&P100 stocks?
    • If the company decides to issue a stock split 4:1, thus the price is lower, would my stop change on its own automatically or would I have to cancel that trailing stop loss before the split, and make a replacement order?

    I watched your 4 Basic types, & now the Trailing Stop videos. An Excellent training video explained extremely well. Silly, but I now have a nice deck of varying Order Type flashcards in my desk drawer. Use it to help me decide what type of order I want depending on the stocks scenario. e.g. - I have faith in a $10 stock & anticipate its rise... I may place a Stop Loss (Buy) order @ $15. If it trends up 5 bucks the order fulfills, & the game begins. Thanks Arvabelle, the best video explanations I have found yet! Recommended.

    @big1dog23 3 месяца назад

    Very clear and concise. It's pre and post market activity that worry me, and worse yet if it triggers while the market is closed then turns around. I've seen it all over the years, but am still most comfortable with % trailing stops once I am well into the green.
