Default Trailing stop methods
What type of trailing stop method works best for you?
a] a fixed 5 pips trailing stop.
b] a 10 pips stop that starts to decrease after the profit target is reached.
c] a stop based on ATR.
d] Time based.
e] some other method you want to share.

Personally I'm thinking about a combination of b and c. But haven't an idea yet how to put it in code.
