However because the the median is a statistically significant reversal area you are working against the odds by leaving the trade to run a few more pips at a potential resistance point. This screws with your risk reward ratio because once the first trade is closed the second 1/2 of the trade is skewed heavily in your favor with a 25 pip risk eliminated and a 50 pip profit already booked. What we are saying by leaving the second 1/2 open without moving the stop is that we'll risk 75 pips of guaranteed profit for an 8 or 10 or even 20 pip additional gain while flying directly into a storm zone.
