Hi Ron,
Do you use the same trade entry/exit rules as your ES trades? i.e. enter 90-120 DTE, exit at 50%, 6x IM?

Thanks!

Thanks Myrrdin,

Do you also use 50% for your other commodity trades as week, eg for CL, grains, metals, etc? I assume you also use the 200% exit criteria for the non-ES trades as well.

Thanks!
