Risk Management & Profit Protection All - Upon execution of a buy order, a stop loss order is placed as well per the conditions noted above. As new boxes form, the stop loss is moved up immediately following the formation of a new box, and set to the bottom of the newly formed box. All but Classic - If the price breaks out and runs up more than the height of the current box without forming a box, the trader may wish to move the stop loss orders up using ghost boxes.
