I normally avoid those as well. There were traders sharing in the forum that they profit with such strategies. I think it was for the Gold…
Anyway, if the strategy passes the Monte Carlo and it is not over-optimized for such SL or TP I think it worths trying it.
Ye, recently I use a bit more the profit factor, but give it a try, use different things, experiment. This is the way that you will find your trading style.
