I know you may be trading a purely mechanical system but was there any point triggering this trade at all with only a 2 point stoploss on an index? Seems very tight to me and not worth placing so close. Maybe I'm missing something?

I understand your point. This can also be viewed as the perfect trade. You could lose 2 points (very minimum risk) and you stand to gain a lot more. It has happened before.

Very good point I suppose! Huge RR ratio, just unlikely to happen. Good luck with tomorrows trade though, markets going thru turbelent times.
