In a margin trade situation, exceeding a set Value at Risk (VaR) implies a loss of control over an elaborate stop-loss placement. I suggest shortening a technically signalled mental entry point, in anticipation of a price reflux. Reflux assumes the market noise of lower time units, within the delay of the start of a movement on the signal time frame. It is also the signal price manifestation of the "buy the dips", "sell the rips" and "disposition effect" phenomena. The set VaR is safeguarded or even reduced, the method is a pretext for using higher leverage. The entry is called "clamp" (σ).
