What do you think? What are your thoughts/methods on using trailing stops?

Thanks again in advance.

Sincerely,

Hi Bill,

Yes trailing stops are commonly used to lock in profits and let the position continue to run, especially by trend traders. I have a video outlining my thoughts on this which you can find here:

Trailing Stops

Let me know if there are any other questions

Best Regards,
Dave
