Some candles are clearly signaling that momentum is lacking and trend is likely to reverse. By simply comparing candle close to the high/low you would be able to filter out some of them, lowering draw down and improving profit factor.

Break even: After position reached predefined profit, stop loss is adjusted on break even price (entry price).
