I believe this came up briefly in the past, but I was hoping we could reiterate this.
Question: "Do you use stops on your spread trades?"
I have been using stops; and I've been stopped out on a couple of positions where it would have been better to have no stop in place as the price reverted back promptly. I took a loss and didn't have to.
Thanks for the input!
