you only use 2 days worth of trend lines correct?

enter when price cross trendline then do you exit if it breaks back thru trendline or stay in trade till first trendline cross?

the stop is 1 tick outside high or low -the exit may be flat or above depending when the trend changes -in chop it will be many short wins or losses -
