Smart Notch style Position Protection (SDMCha)
To protect your positions you usually have the basic
Target and/or Stop out logic.
SDMCha offers an advanced notch style protection, which advance the current
stop out level (red line below) each time a new high is reached by the
difference to
the initial entry price (or even in different stages - see at the bottom of this
page)

To activate add the following instructions to the Position Entry Module (PosExit.sdl):
$StopOnEntry = Close - 10.0
PositionExit("Notch",1,$StopOnEntry,TypicalPrice)
To show the current stop out level in the Chart define to the chart definition (XXX.sdc)
[Window1]
Size=70
Overlay1=Price|Candle
Overlay2=$Stop|Line|Red|2
and define in the Exit check module (PosExit.sdl):
PositionStatus = CheckExit()
$Stop = GetPositionExit("Notch")



Notch style Position Protection in Stages
In this example we first have an initial protection of $1.50 below the entry
until a gain of up to $0.50
and using a one-to-one price difference translation on the Closing price:
1.50/0.50/1.0/Close
Then in the 2nd Stage (gains of $0.,75 or more) we start at $0.25 below break
even and then notch up from there:
0.25/10
PositionExit("Stages",&StageList:^1.50/0.50/1.0/Close;0.25/10^&)
You can even create Tick-by-Tick position protections as shown below with the
blue rectangles:
In this example the entry occured at $910.25 with an initial stop at $908.75
($1.50 below).
As the max gains rise the stop notches up to $909.00 and $909.25.
Once the max gain hits $0.75 the stage 2 kicks in and the stop moves up to
$910.00 ($0.25 below entry)
and then notches up shadowing the further gains:
