From now on, I will try to forward test 'exit' (premature) in slow progressing trades, after an entry is triggered post completed CD, for example if a buy is triggered after a completed buy CD, and trade starts to move in right direction and a sell setup starts evolving, I would consider exit if a flip bar pops up, or if enough progress is not made in first 4-5 trading sessions post entry.
Can reenter if another flip bar (in original direction) appears with strong candle.
The idea is to stay with strong reversals and exit weak corrections in strong trends, so that a profitable trade does not become a loser.
Example: In the below Maruti chart if one was short, we are at evolving buy setup 2, now if a flip bar(sell setup 1) appears, one should consider exit.
