BUY signal the
week of 1.17.12 at $104.78. My first stop was $82.00, so my risk
(R)/share was $22.78. Stopped out the week of 5.14.12 at $97.20. The percentage loss on this trade was -7.2%, and the reward-to-risk ratio was -$7.58/$22.78 = -0.33.
By now you've already heard this story a couple of times: +21.7% at one point only to give it all back when the market moved down (faster than my stops could move up) in May.
