Thanks Dave,  I was just worried about volatility. I watched the Brexit vote and every booth moved the market.

Now I'm not saying mid-terms will be like Brexit, it could be a non event.  I just think it is too risky a trade.

Now what I am saying is stops were hit, orders were filled in the opposite direction. and their stops were

hit. So anyone trading was being hit both ways trying to cover.

So I guess that would equate to the same trading any News event. now just say with your trade.

If, as each state is being counted, it spikes one way, hits your stop, enters short, spikes back up,

hits your new stop, you are out of both trades at a fair size loss..

I guess your system is not as simple as that example.  For me, just too risky to trade today.
