System 2 Turtle Trading by Dennis Richard on SNAP

I am trying to experiment a new setup based from the turtle trading system of Dennis Richard as written by Michael W. Covel in his book "The Complete Turtle Trader"

System 2 setup is based on the New 55days High. If a stock hits new 55 days high, you enter on the following day no matter what price the stock is in. Your exit strategy is based on 4 weeks new low. If the stock goes against your traded trend, then exit with a loss on the New 20days low.

SNAP posted a very good quarter and is getting good revenue. Feb 7, 2018 it had a surge volume with a very long candle breaking a new 55 days high, reaching 21.22 surpassing former high of 16.88 of the past 55 days. I initiated and order of 18.75 on the 2nd day days and another order of 18.65 on the 3rd day. Now is the 13th day and the stock is still posting a new low of 16.3 lower than the low of the breakout candle with the low of 16.96.

Current Volatility based on ATR = Average True Range is 1.63

My take here is that if the slide continues to make new low until 20th day, then I will exit the positions at a loss, based on the exit strategy of Richard Dennis on his System 2 of Turtle Trading. Then we will wait for possible reversal again.
