How big are your targets? With a 4 tick stop, are you aiming for 1-2
points ?

Are you using bollinger bands to try and catch the turning
points ?

Hi, fellow Londoner here, you're doing really well, congrats!
Seems you prefer shorting, and you mainly enter on a low 1, when the price dips below previous low which works great in a downtrend or with nice wide movement days. You get killed with
chop and trying to catch a reversal in strong bull days.
Your exit strategy is paying off nicely you let the winners run, would you explain your stop strategy? It looks like about 1.5 or 2
points , is it a set value or do you adjust it according to
price action ?

resistance /support. Sometimes that is 8-12 ticks, sometimes its 60 ticks.VIX is (above 15, I use bigger swings)price action (and index price action) to determine if I should just exit, and when I feel that, I bail .
