Shelley, I've got no idea about other's indicators/stops/strategies - 
I've learnt a while back that the only trading strategy worth 
developing is one developed at home.  ;)

Stops are basically breakouts in reverse, and by their nature all 
breakouts give up a major portion of any potential trading profit.

Stops should only be used as a sort of safety net when suitable exit 
signals fail.  Furthermore, the depth of a stop needs to be tailored 
to the trader's strategy and risk profile.

Replacing suitable exits with stops guarantees reduced profit.
Whether these profit losses translate into trading losses depends on 
the trader's own trading strategy.
