    I assume that you've backtested your strategies. If so, are you anywhere near the max drawdown? Don't change anything haphazardly without a reason, otherwise you are just stuck running in a circle.

    May I ask question? Your stop loss, is it based on account percentage or extreme of the bar? I think CL made funny moves these days. Hazardous Choppy, Noisy Trending. Wish you a good result later...

    Spooz, yes assumption is correct - no conclusions will be drawn on a whim and I'm nowhere near max. drawdown. Just expressing recent frustrations.

    De-Trader, my CL lot size is based on $risk but stop loss is based on price action. At least CL is moving - I'm glad I'm not trading ES!
