How to Enter and Exit Trades

Master trade execution — how to enter at the right price and exit at maximum profit.

A great signal can fail with poor execution. How and when you enter and exit is just as important as the signal itself.

Entry Methods

Market Order

Executes immediately at current price. Use when entry price is within 0.5% of current price, or when the signal says "market entry." Guaranteed fill, slightly worse price.

Limit Order

Waits for price to reach your specified level. Use when entry price is more than 1% away from current price. Better fill price but not guaranteed.

Tip

Rule: Within 0.5% of entry = market order. More than 1% away = limit order. Between 0.5–1% = your judgment based on momentum.

Managing Multiple Take Profit Levels

Nezsig signals typically have 3 take profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3). Here's how to manage them professionally:

  • TP1 (nearest): Close 40% of position — locks in guaranteed profit
  • TP2 (middle): Close another 40% — the bulk of your profit
  • TP3 (furthest): Hold 20% for maximum upside potential
  • After TP1 hits: Move stop loss to break-even — trade is now risk-free

When to Exit Early

  • Price invalidates the signal structure before reaching TP
  • Major unexpected news event changes the fundamental picture
  • Nezsig sends a signal update or early close alert

Important

Never exit early just because you're nervous about open profit. Let the trade reach TP1 before reconsidering.

This is exactly what I needed. The 10-layer system makes sense — explains why the signal quality is so consistent.

The No-Trade Zone filters are genius. I've been burned by signals during news events so many times. Good to know there's a filter for that.

Session bonus makes a lot of sense. London/NY overlap is always the most liquid period. Low liquidity breakouts are notorious fakeouts.
