2 x my max profit is all I'm willing to lose.

B/C it's undefined and not necessarily cash secured.

Not seeing as much value in predefined loss. Capital reduction, protection. Less flexible rolling.

I track a 2X loss, but may or may not close/manage at that point.

Around .5% to 1 % of portfolio. Is it too much ? What are your thoughts guys ?

Depends upon B/E, suppose we put SL and the MtM loss hit your SL but B/E is intact?

I use price action of the underlying to determine exit point

I wait to long before I close a losing position. Need help to understand the best time to bail out.
