T4J, my point is if it drops from the current area, the stop is not going to get hit unless it is a complete trend reversal. It may be entering an OB area, but it does not mean the trend has to give out. It may only be necessary for a little steam to be let out while the top of the cloud acts as support. While this is going on, the kijun rises, and you have a closer stop. From the point of support,hopefully the market reverses, heads to higher highs, the kijun trials, and eventually, you have a stop above your entry, which locks in a profit in the worse case scenario.
BTW, I'm going to give you what is only a personal view point here, because I disagree with some very good traders in this forum along these lines, so I mean this comment with all due respect.
I do not agree with moving up a trailing stop to breakeven just to guarantee not to have a losing sale. If in a long on this market, and your breakeven is just above the cloud, then it hits the cloud then bounces back up, you did your self no favors. If it is a systemic type of stop, in other words below any key support area, then you are making the stop as hard as possible to be hit.
At least now you can experiment with both viewpoints, then make a decision for yourself

Thanks for your comments.
