Every hourly close since Nov 2023 treated as an entry, long and short, and checked for whether a stop at that distance was touched within the next 4 or 24 hours (5,090 hourly candles). Distances are in ATR(14) on the 1-hour chart and converted with today's ATR, so the price column moves with volatility. The rates are stable: measured on one year, they matched the following year to within about 1.4 percentage points on average across our markets. They describe ordinary noise, not direction.
What this means for your stop
- A stop inside one ATR is inside the noise: it gets hit on most days whether or not the trade idea was right. That is the usual reason a stop "always gets hit".
- Coinbase Global (COIN) Stock typically covers about 5.7 ATR ($21.03) from high to low in 24 hours.
- Wider is not automatically better: a wider stop loses more when it is hit. Decide the distance first, then size the position to it.
Spread and the stops you never saw coming
Stocks trade in a fixed session. Overnight and after earnings the price can open well beyond your stop, so the fill can be far worse than the level you set — no distance table can protect against a gap.
Where the crowd's stops are right now
Distance and the hour set the odds. In our tests, an obvious swing low or a round number was reached no more often than any other point the same distance away, so the crowd map shows whose stops you sit beside, not how likely yours is to be hit. On the free 24-hour-delayed model, the densest modeled stop band for COIN has its upper edge at 186.33 and its lower edge at 163.67.
