How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[bestlooser]

friend in my view putting stop loss on base bollinger band is not good idea.
if any one using long time frame like day or weekly than stop loss is more than 600-700 ****. this so high number of ****. in upper or lower we can see many support and resistance we can put stop loss withing this range.

agar aap 3-4 saal ka dekho to eurusd mein taqreeban 4000 **** tak movement ho hui in this long term and I think for longer term we may easily get good results if we are going for 500 to 1000 **** but nothing is fixed and forex keep on changing and trends keep on changing so you have to adjust yourself in all kinds of situations.

me is bat se agree nahi karta ki stop loss equity pe depend karta hai
mere hisab se stop los market ki condition pe depend karta hai aur us pair ki technical studies pe depend karta hai
agar aapne koi bhi pari buy kiya ho to aapko uska stop loss uske resistance ke hisab se set karna chahaiye .. apne man se ya equity se koi bhi value set kar dene se aapka money management me gadbad ho sakti hai

Stop loss setting depends on lot of things, and equity available in account and is also one of the factor in that apart from support and resistance points, strategy used and the market conditions.

i think using stop loss in your trading is the good idea but you have to learn how to set the stop loss , because if you fail to set the proper stop loss then you will no be able to get success in your method you are using for trading the forex

I dont consider it appropriate to fix that we should have stop loss at that many ****, but we should find out a level which we fill is difficult to hit so that there are lessor chances of our trade running into stop loss and chances to book profit remain more.

i think it all depends upon the trader and its all depends upon his investment and capability of loosing money because if you have good investment and you are sure that by going this much of down your currency will surely go up then you can take the risk but in case you don't have good investment then there is no need to go for it.

Ideally we have to set the stop loss at 30 **** and anything more than that is not advisable at all. This is because if we are going into a loss of 30 **** then it clearly means that the trade is totally wrong and we need to revise our study and again make the trade with the correct market sentiments

In the event of the Hedging we can go for a stop loss = 50 **** since we are not sure which way the market will go and that is the range which actually decides the movements.

no we cant tell any values for SL unless we know the type of trader.
for a scalper no SL is required as it might get triggered easily than TP.

The number of **** can't be fixed for any trade. It totally depends on your style of trading and your capital, your limit to handle loss. If you are a scalper with minimum deposit then you must set a tight stop loss and if you are a swing trader with big deposit then you can afford to have a big stop loss. But the question you had asked can't be answered with a fixed number of ****.

Ye kehna sahi nahi hoga ki fala fala **** stop loss rakhne se safe rahega, yeh situation par nirbhar karta hai
hame chart study kar support or resistance ke anusar trading karni chahiye buy ke case me stop loss support ke thoda neeche rakhna chahiye.
