After testing this out today it was noticed the stop loss was too tight and should have been at around 25% of the daily session fib grid so that the stop loss appears the opposite side of the No Trade Zone.

The Target 1 was also moved out a slight amount to maintain the mathematical breakeven on the 2 lot scale out and the last lot trail.

AFT Session Breakout Micro-Equity-Index-Futures-Day Trading System

You spoke and we listened and delivered and this time we asked Tom Leeson of MicroTrends a professional hedge fund algo trader, inventor of the AFT SFG Session Breakout style of trading system to setup a workspace that he would personally consider tradeable for a semi automated and fully automated approach with trader in attendance for day trading – also utilizing the trend correlation market analyzer and a 4 view of MES, MYM, M2K and MNQ micro futures.. The system is setup to enter the market at NYSE open 9.30AM and trade the morning session and afternoon optionally. Daily Money management goal $200 USD profit lock per session, 3lots over 2 brackets. Apparently the reason for this is that the 1st target takes out 66% of the position size providing a mathematical profit breakeven without the need to trail in the stop loss so allowing the trade room to breathe.

This installer and workspaces now replaces prior AFT room templates and workspaces. however for those traders who want these no panic you can can install them still from the workspace installer from the downloads page or via support.

As 2020-10-15 by default for all user micro futures workspaces installer will install 2 workspaces 100% free
