- The trade begins when a trader takes a long position based on a Slow Stochastics crossover signaling a buy. When the trade is entered at that point, the stop is located at the level labeled “Initial Stop”.
As the trade progresses to the upside, and as price action takes out each successive high, the stop is moved up to the next higher low.
Looking at the chart for example, when price moves above the high labeled #1, the stop is moved from the Initial Stop level to Stop #1. As price takes out the next high at #2, the stop is trailed from Stop #1 to Stop #2. This procedure continues as long as price continues to advance and make higher highs and higher lows.
