What this lesson covers
This lesson covers exits: where to take profit, how trailing stops are used, and which technical signals indicate that a position should be closed. It also addresses the psychological side, since selling is where most investors struggle and the common errors are well documented. The rules discussed include cutting losses early by placing a stop below the purchase price, with the distance set by the stock's own volatility using a measure such as average true range rather than a fixed figure applied to everything. The purpose throughout is to remove the decision from the moment, so that a position is closed according to a plan made in advance rather than a judgement made under pressure.
