- Wait for a bearish reversal candlestick to form and that is your sell signal
- place a sell stop order 2 pips below the low of this bearish candlestick.
- then place your stop loss 2-5 pips about the high of that candlestick but if the stop loss is too close to the entry price, then look for the nearest swing high and place your stop loss a minimum of 2 pips above it.
