Hence, I have 2 entryprices, one at 11$ and the other at 10.5$.(for example) The main problem here is when I want to sell at 1$ profit. The system rec...

The problem here is that if, on the upcoming days the bulls take over and keep breaking new highs, I will have a chain reaction of alerts coming off. So, in order to prevent that I'd li...
