IPM Trade Matrix Trades will be posted in the first half of 2014. This is an experiment to understand and enhance the capabilities of this Matrix.

Trailing Stops: EW & Trailing stops will be determined after trade is entered & IPM Model Turn window passes
Typical IPM Trade Matrix Trade Risk: 1.5% (Entry = 1837, Exit = 1814, Risk = 1.2%)
Risk Reason: Wave 3 down might start.  Risk will be mitigated by the stops
