How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[Ksal33m]

main apna stop loss resistance, pivots aur support per apna stop loss place karta hoon yeh ziyada safe lagata hay muj ko. stop loss laganey say app barey loss say bach jata hay.

[raihanuiu]

Yes, I agree and support on your opinion. Actually, how much do you invest and what do you know about forex. What`s type of position of you in forex. It depends many situation like what`s type of trade do you like. I hope you should not more than 20-30 pips for SL. Then you can control money management and risk of your business.

[milan]

In my judgement conclusion experience is a obligatory vicious for the newbies, its really beta to cease the quantity of loses using the block going because generally newbies learn with a infinitesimal matter. And you are conservative whatsoever big traders can do without labial decline because they get sufficient portion in their trading invoice.

[100 to 1,000]

stop loss can be set according to your trading strategy and we all know that different trading strategy will give different stop loss consideration.
also, even the farthest stop loss can be hit by the market during certain condition. we have all seen that during the news release the price can be very hectic and move up or down by hundreds of pips.

haa news aane wali hoti hai to aap ka stop loss thoda niche hi hona chahiye kyuki do hi cheez hoga ya to itna profit jo kabhi aapne socha na ho aur ya to account blow off

[anwar]

well it depends upon the need.But always its not wise to have like this TP=SL.
For beginners i recommend 2:1 ratio.
if TP is 30pips have SL as 50 pips.So that if you lose a trade also,atleast the last trade's half profit will remain.

[rk225325]

Mere hisaab se agar aap sl use karte hai toh aapko kam se kam 50 pips tak lena chahiye aur tp 70 pips tak rakhna chahiye.Ye jyada risky nahi hoga.

[ashwini]

yeh depend karta hain ki app koun sa pair par trade kar rahe hain .. aur kiss time frame par..
jaise agar eurusd .. trade kar rahe hain.. 30mtns time frame par to 30pips stoploss target perfect hain.
lekin wonhi agar app gbpjpy trade kar rahe hain.. 30mnts time frame par to 60pips stoploss target perfect hota hain. kiun ki dono ki spread aur volatile alag hain.

[Razu]

Every trader is not follow same rule.I think 10-15 pips is safe for new trader and 50 pips is safe for good trader. But some people do prefer 100pips. It is very risky.

[ishvara]

i think it depends upon how many pips are you targeting per trade for i target around 8 to 12 pips per trade and use around 25 pip stop loss and that works for me well it gives you a liberty of preventing your account being blown

You are applying the wrong risk reward ration in your trades since you are using a small profits and bigger loss targets like 12pips TP and 25pips SL. Make sure that your profits target is always higher than your loss targets.

[100 to 1,000]

I think that would entirely depend on your margin, equity and volume of your trade. If you are going with a bigger volume, I think its safe to put a stop loss not more than five to seven pips. However, for moderate or lower volumes of trades, you can go with 10 to 20 pips easily. It will be safe. But again, also keep an eye on your margin. You don't wanna open a position that puts you on the verge of a margin call.

this is a very good advise. i also think the same. we should not open a position that is far too large because we won't have enough space to maintain the position.
but it also must depend on the trading strategy that we use. using a very tight pips on a h4 trading strategy will render the strategy useless.

[monkedelofi]

Many newbies ask me how many pips is safe for stop loss? I think its all depend on how much you afford to lose and we have to put stop loss by checking resistance and support levels, we should not put stop loss just by numbers.

Share your views...

well main apna sl pips ke hisaab se ni rkhta. main last support or resistance k hisaab se sl set krta hu..lekin jab mere trade proft me hota hai to me apna sl change kr k trade open price se 4-5 above set kr deta hu.... es trah meri trade close hone par b me 4-5 pisp profit me hi rahta hu.

[rathod]

do you know why maximum experts are not using this ? cause no need to use it if you have good strategy.suppose you place sl and market will touch it.then tell me who will take responsibility ? ofcourse you.but if you trade with patient then you can take profits.

[rathod]

in my opinion, traders should not use it.or can avoid it. if you have good strategy or if you have good money management then no need to use it.sorry to say, stop loss function hunted my money too many times and thats why ignoring.

[rathod]

yeah u r right....its all depended on the strategy that we use for trading,...in case of stop loss must be use at stage where we can afford to lose it ...

[puri]

i usually trade using a scalping and trade with most volatile pair that is eur usd so i think i need to make a stop loss of atleast 20-30 pips for safe trading..their should be a different stop loss.pair wis

[place]

for me, this is very difficult to determine.a true market stop loss determine is very important if you want to use this.but if you have not much idea about that then kindly please ignore it.or study about it.

[aamu]

mein to apne trading aur avaialble equity ke hisab se mein apna stop loss chhoose karta hoon.basically mein scalper hone ki wajah se mein jaldi hi position close kar deta hoon so mein kabhi kabhar sl bhi nahi rakhta

[puri]

stop loss with only 6-8 pips, is it realistic? opportunity to touch the stop loss is very large. even, I could say, would be hit stop loss if only 6-8 pips. I think, for the SL 50 pips is normal with TP 50 pips as well.

[puri]

true. risk used by the traders, all depending on the plan he used in the trade. I myself will make the risk 50 pips, and only took 20 pips profit. This has become a trading plan that I created, and I have to be disciplined with my plan

[rathod]

trading plan that I made, always place stop loss 50 pps just to be able to make gains in one day 20 pps. This is part of the management in my trade. and I have the discipline to do it. and this could minimize my losses in a trade without having to lose all the money I had.

[golpo20]

Possibility supervision is critical due to the fact fx is usually a incredibly dangerous enterprise which usually needs carefulness. The particular broker should manage threat by location your halt reduction about each and every deal which he executes in order that if your market place should go against your pet into a a number of level, and then this specific halt order instantly shuts your deal to avoid more failures.

[dhalsem]

Many newbies ask me how many pips is safe for stop loss? I think its all depend on how much you afford to lose and we have to put stop loss by checking resistance and support levels, we should not put stop loss just by numbers.

Share your views...

It depends of the trader itself, its his decision to set it depending on the balance he have in his account and how much money can he afford to lose but setting it below 50 pips is not the right option according to me. but i said it always depends on the trader

[sripanut]

I think every traders has different opinion about this. In my experience, I usually set take profit in 5 until 10 pips and stop loss in 20 pips, because I use scalping technique and use time frame M1 and M5.

[Fahad]

Stop loss is a strategy for short term traders, because they have low capital in their accounts, so we also have to choose small pips for that, we just have to choose 5 to 10 pips for stop loss

[sumonmia0526]

for scalping i think 10-15 pips sl and 5-10 pips TP is good ..but in long term trading we need to change our SL strategy .i think for 100 pip gain we set 50 pips SL..most of we are giving SL 100 and TP 50 but we must reduce our losing possibility .only experience can say how we can set up our SL and TP

[ragu]

I think only 50 pips do you think is safe for SL. But good profit you can earn 1200 pips but it is very rick.thanks

[aamu]

stop loss trading main bahut jaruri hai ye hame bahut bade loss or margin call se bachata hai. lekin right stop loss determine karne main bahut problem aati hai.
main scalping trading karta hu or usme 15pips stop loss rakta hu.

[golpo20]

dealing prepare that i created, constantly location end burning 50 pips merely every single child make gets a single day 20 pips. That is perhaps the supervision in my industry. and We've the actual control to complete the idea. this also could limit our cutbacks within a industry and never having to lose all the dollars I'd.

[hitesh]

Yes stoplose depend on your analysis if you are day trader then you can set your stop lose according to that analysis. If you are scalper then stop lose is different. So it depend on traders trading style. I think most trader set stop lose and take profit on support and resistance level.

[aarti]

Trader should set their stop lose with support and resistance level. When they set stop lose they should add extra few pips with support and resistance level. You can use your stop lose according to your balance and your trading style.

[5starsabuj]

Many newbies think that it is important question but i think that it is not important question. If a trader can be face with getting loss he can be close his trade market instantly. More over he can stay to expect to take more profit although often he can face with many loss. So a newbies can be control his risk with a few pips . So that he can protect his money instantly. So it is a good decision for a newbies to trade properly in the Forex market.

[ahmedi]

Stop loss is a strategy for short term traders, because they have low capital in their accounts, so we also have to choose small pips for that, we just have to choose 5 to 10 pips for stop loss
Yes i agree it if you want to get the success in the forex trading then you must have to follow the latest development in the economy so that you will able to manage all the things perfectly and by placing position at good level you can create good amount of wealth.

[aarti]

2:1 take profit and stop lose ratio is very good for trader. I also use 2:1 take profit and stop lose ratio. Some time I use 1:1 ratio. It depend on market condition and market volatility.

[golpo20]

This will depend from the trader by itself, it's his choice setting that according to the harmony they have with his consideration as well as what kind of money can they afford to reduce although location that under 50 pips seriously isn't the proper selection as outlined by myself. although i mentioned that usually is dependent upon the trader.

[macblanc474]

i anticipate SL should be of 50 pips i usually keeps sl with 50 pips and tp at 50 pips if we are in accumulation we can use SL as to abstain accident in our trades as like yield accumulation i mostly application it.

[Adnan]

there is no such limit for SL, it only depends upon your strategies... if you have observed your strategies right then you will surely place a good position for your stop lose... don't make any assumption from yourself until you find it...

[aarti]

if you trade as a day trader, 30 pips will enough to be consider as a safe stop loss. but if you are a longterm trader, that kind of amount will surely kill your account soon enough. so the point is, the stop loss must depend on your strategy.

[aarti]

i usually use 50-100 SL for each my position. i know it seem big, but i'm using H4 time frame as my default chart, so with the slowness of the price moving i can still manage to make an exit strategy incase the market go wild. but from my experience, because i'm only enter the market if i've got confirmed signals, i've never get touched by this SL.

[zeshan]

i think the different traders have the different point of view about that but i think the 500 pips is the best for the safe the money from the loss and the traders safe their money on any other way

[CemonG]

in past i am not use stop loss. that's why i loss my total account $. its depends on market situation. i think better is 40-50

I agree with your boss , if we don 't use sl the risks that could happen so quick and large as you 're experiencing , and that humbling experience and not forgotten .untuk sl or arrangement of strategy traders that depends on its own , and adapted to market conditions at the time . i did for wear this with sl 50 points and tp 100 points for trading intraday .

[mukta]

I think for daily trading 300 pips are more safe and risk free for stop loss.You must use stop loss in your every trade.Stop loss is one of the most important thing for saving your account from unexpected flash.

[faisal89]

There are no fixed quantity that can be said as a respectable value because by touch sl you always get losses.But it depends on you that how much loss your account can tolerate and also you feature sufficiency freeborn margin to lawless another role.I ordinarily do not seek more than 5% my justice on a bingle trade and mostly 2 trades at a abstraction.

[Forex]

for placement of stop loss, I always use a pivot point point, so as to have a clear psychological point market. how much the placement of stop loss point is also combined with the strategy used. if using candlestck movement, then the stop loss is usually placed at the lowest price or highest previous candle.

[jab we met]

most of the time i set stop loss according to the movement of the market if the movement of the market is not clear and trend also not clear then you need to set stop loss at 150 pips but if every thing is clear then i think you do not need to set stop loss

[jab we met]

i think 150 pips is safe for stop loss but i suggest to every one open trader after check the market trend and when the movement of the market is fast because at this time you can earn big money from the forex market

[Adnan]

my friend stop lose depend upon many factors and you can't put it like your asking. it mainly depends upon the situation. also it depends upon your confidence level. With good analysis you will be confident about the target you think about and even then you will be able to put stop lose...

[isbhacker]

Stop loss is condition specific and also strategy specific it can be Time based,Loss based,Volatility based and Level based.Determining the type of stop loss is not very easy in forex I prefer level based it give much room to my Trading .

[boniez]

you'd better use the capital that fits, because I know if you're already using an appropriate capital with sufficient resistance, then the next step is to determine the open position.

[golpo20]

in forex trading market SL will be condition particular as well as strategy particular it might be Period based, Damage based, Volatility based as well as Amount based. Identifying the SL just isn't easy in forex I prefer stage based it give much place to help our Dealing.

[Fahad]

in my point of view we should not have to set stop loss if we have enough balance in our trading accounts, if not so then we have to set minimum piips for our stop loss

[masum]

I think you can good profit forex market. you can earn 50pip then you safe your account then you SL. thanks

[vanigota]

i agree with you, our stop loss can be only 10 pips but it is not hit if we make an entry on right point
like trading on support and resistance point, this makes sl always enough for all kinds of trading
on the other hand if we make wrong entry and set large stop loss it can be hit easily

[100 to 1,000]

10 pips is probably safe for those who trade using intra-day trading style but it's probably too high for scalpers.
for other type of trading people usually put something like 20 pips, 25 pips, 30 pips or even 50 pips.

[vanigota]

when we are use the stop loss we must depend on the signal that we are have inside, we can not use the fix Stop loss because using the fix stop loss can being really dangerous for the trader to use it, so we must need to analysis it again

[ghysalgreen]

I think the number of pips required to put the sl is -50, it is the most ideal distance in my opinion, therefore you can make money management hars which 50 pips is only 2% of your capital

[isbhacker]

Swing trading has no fixed stop loss but A scalper can use time based or Pip based stop loss and also money based Which is also good .

[golpo20]

SL might be throughout smaller pips however it's not necessarily struck in the event that we make a good access about proper place such as investing about service and level of resistance place, this tends to make SL constantly enough regarding many investing in contrast in the event that we make inappropriate access and collection large stop burning it can be struck effortlessly.

[omer1]

SL depend krta hai aap k trading style per market condition par or aap k balance per agar aaap k pas equity ziada hai to tou aap SL mein ziada pips rakh sakte hain lekin agar aaap k paas balance kam hai tou aap ko us hisaab se SL lagana chahiye...koshish krni chahiye k market trend delh kr SL lagaya jaye...

[theniceone]

[hello927]

If we think wisely, there is no safe amount in forex because it is much volatile system of trading. One thing for sure that every trader has his own trading terminology and strategy that he uses according to his requirement. But i recommend that only 50 to 70 pips are safe for SL.

[theniceone]

yes did not keep any pip amount, i just share the normally people use the rate for pip.the different people having different thought about it, and they use also different type of strategies

[golpo20]

When most of us consider sensibly, there is absolutely no protected volume with forex as it is a lot volatile technique associated with buying and selling. The one thing for sure that broker possesses his or her own buying and selling vocabulary and also technique he uses in line with his need. Nevertheless i propose in which just 50 to help 75 pips are protected with regard to SL.

[faria]

Location SL as well as TP depends upon marketplace situation. occasionally you are able to set halt decline to be able to 50 pips merely as well as sometimes you can create it one hundred fifty pips.. It's information on your analyze as well as marketplace situation..

[100 to 1,000]

the previous support level is good as the stop loss point for a buy position and previous resistance level is a good stop loss for sell position.
some people also use the fib level to place their stop loss level while other people also like to put their sl at pivot point levels.

[hotshotboyz]

My opinion for short term trade 50 pipe is safe for SL but if you trade long term you can set your SL 100 plus pipe or more. it depend on your capacity and balance also. some long term trader are not used SL. but SL is very essential.

[TrojanFX]

My opinion for short term trade 50 pipe is safe for SL but if you trade long term you can set your SL 100 plus pipe or more. it depend on your capacity and balance also. some long term trader are not used SL. but SL is very essential.

Everyone recommends around 50 pips indeed, however you must look how big is our trading capital, what risk you are going to take and how much you can afford. Maybe for your strategy safer is 100 pips as you are waiting for bigger market movements,

[tarun2305]

i think intraday tradings is excellent for the traders if they know how to do the good tradings and for this purpose the good stop loss and the take profit is the 100 pips. and if your analysis are good then you will get the money.

100 pips tab theek rahega jab apko apni strategy par poora bharosa ho kyuki daily ka apko 100 pips ka margin nhi milgaa aur aisa bhi kafi baar hota hai ki SL bahut niche rakhne se bahut jyada loss hoa jata hai

[mehedi islam]

it is very tough to say how many pips are safe for SL. but i think Sl should be always much more higher than TP. in my case, i always set sL as 30-40 pips and tp 3-5 pips with a lot volume of 0.75-2 unit. and it is giving me utmost result. i am happy with the output. good luck.

[tamanna]

I am a new trader so do not use any pips for stop loss yet. I think i need to study more and more about pips then i can understand about if easily and it will be possible to use pips for stop loss.

[100 to 1,000]

it is very tough to say how many pips are safe for SL. but i think Sl should be always much more higher than TP. in my case, i always set sL as 30-40 pips and tp 3-5 pips with a lot volume of 0.75-2 unit. and it is giving me utmost result. i am happy with the output. good luck.

stop loss level that is higher than take profit level is good if you can master the trading style because if not then your profit will be wiped out in a single hit on SL.
but i see many people have success using this strategy also. normally they put like SL 50 and then TP 35 or something similar to that.

Umteen newbies ask me how numerous pips is riskless for conclusion loss? I cogitate its all depend on how often you give to regress and we hit to put plosive experience by checking resistivity and activity levels, we should not put layover red just by lottery.What is your opinion?

Umteen newbies ask me how numerous pips is riskless for conclusion loss? I cogitate its all depend on how often you give to regress and we hit to put plosive experience by checking resistivity and activity levels, we should not put layover red just by lottery.What is your opinion?

Agreed.

Many newbies don't respect the fact that forex isn't something rigid like Eiffel Tower. Forex is flexible, something of an art rather than science. You have to be flexible in placing either your entry or exit -- please don't misunderstood that this mean you can enter and get out as you wish...flexible here simply means that one trader is different from another depend on the strategy they use.

Share your views...

Possible to put how many pips to stop loss, every trader has their own opinion. But for me the placement of pips to stop loss should also be tailored to the capital and the strategies that we have. And if for normal or most traders put 50 pips to stop loss.

[joru]

For me that best idea is 3 times of my profit target and if i choose resistance and support level than i did not consider point and i stick with it. And its quite better formula for me.

hello, there are a lot of people who are newbie in forex market,the stop loss is depend on your account and your style trading, i always use 30 pips
for stop loss, it is suitable, but if i trade with a big lot, i will use 10 pips only, the support and resistance is so important too

[tarun2305]

For me that best idea is 3 times of my profit target and if i choose resistance and support level than i did not consider point and i stick with it. And its quite better formula for me.

ye aapne jo target batay hai wo thoda jyada hai kyuki main aisa manta hu ki agar aap bahut jyada hi SL niche rakhneg to aapko loss kafi ho jayega tab aap ka order close hoga isse acha aaap SL na hi lagaye au Khud trade ko watch kare

[joru]

hum agar trade ko acchi point par set kare toh woh 20 pips taq humre trade ke against ja kar phir profit ki aur rukhta hay.Aur koi trade agar 30 pips exceed karle toh woh aur bhi lose ho sakta hay.Is liye hummein 50 pips taq hi sl ko set karna chahiye.

[zytuy11]

how much money can he afford to lose but setting it below 50 pips is not the right option according to me and therefore if TP is 100pips have SL as 50pips.So that if you lose a trade also,atleast the last trade's half profit will remain.

[pakforex]

you can only see the 2% of loss on the day if the loss is exceeds the 2% of your capital then the loss increases this is the universal formula or many of the qualified traders asked that when you got the loss 2% of your capital then not to trade in that day because you have more loss if you not close the open trade.

[grabbani]

As I am very much new here in Forex trading so I do not know how many pips are safe for Stop Loss but I understand this much that if I have to earn more and more money then I have to know all these things very quickly.

[purohit]

I generally use 50 pips for stop loss in my trade.And if i see that market will not move more than 20 pips than i use only 30 pips in my stop loss to lock my stop.

[joru]

Yes indeed traders need to place stop losses based on their risk to reward ratio and based on the profits they want and percentage of capital they want to risk.It has to be decided by trader himself before trading.

[syphertob]

sometimes you can set stop loss to 50 pips only and sometime you can make it 200 pips and so if we are trading with H1 then its better to have STop loss around 50 pips for H4 we should increase it.

[samo]

For me, it depends on the type of trader what is the best stop loss for them because it also depends on their take profit and their risk reward ratio that they use. If they are scalper trader, then you need only a small SL because your TP is also small.

[TrojanFX]

it is more important to stay without loss and make profit here. Good money management avoids more loss to your account, and good analysis helps us to make more money with less effort

it depends on the trader's own ability. Because I think if we use as the Stop Loss then you should adjust to market conditions and the condition of existing capital, then we will get the Stop Loss accordingly.

[jeetu]

My IDEA of STOP LOSS is always add 10pips below or over Support and Resistance respectively, however you should always take into account the capital you are holding and risk that you can really afford to take without hampering much of your capital.

[tarun2305]

mere khyaal se 50pip sahi hota hai stop losss ke liy kyoki itne market ek alg moove leta hai aur tabhi admi diside hota hai ki profit hoga ya loss hoga isliy admi 50 tak j\hi use karna chahiy stop loss ko n jayda n hi kam

kitna pip SL lagana hai ye aap yahan baithe baithe nhi decide kar skte iske liye apko pahle trade aur pair ki poori analysis karni padegi tab hi decide karna ki kahan lagaye SL ko

[purohit]

Trader should set their stop lose with support and resistance level. When they set stop lose they should add extra few pips with support and resistance level. You can use your stop lose according to your balance and your trading style.

[joru]

Yes stoplose depend on your analysis if you are day trader then you can set your stop lose according to that analysis. If you are scalper then stop lose is different. So it depend on traders trading style. I think most trader set stop lose and take profit on support and resistance level.

[stayfilitim]

for stop loss i think it is good to make more than 25 pip and less than 40 pip to be sure you are far from stop loss when three is a small volatile and you are far from the big loss and for take profit it is better to make it between 60pip and 100 pip to get enough profit.

[gonesh20]

stop loss depends on various conditions...it depend on individual,s study, his account balance, his experience etc..
so we can not generalize the exact pips for setting stop loss..it depends on situation to situation and trader to trader .I think better to install the SL between 30-50 pips.
My experience using SL of 10-20 pips, but the market actually touching the SL and turned toward ...
so from now on I always install the 30-50pips SL ...

[penjualdolar]

I prefer to use a stop loss of 50-100 pips, because the stop loss for this trade would make me more relaxed and my stop loss will not be easily moved by the movement of prices.

[boniez]

I think that depending on the thinking of each trader I am trading with scalp so I usually set TP and SL is very small. if I use the TP is 30 pips then I will put SL a 20 pip or sometimes I emtry not use SL is only time I use TP is 4 pips
but do not use targets that are too narrow, because I think stop loss is too small as only 10 or 20 pips would be very easy to hit stop loss hunter, and it will only hurt ourselves.

[kiran]

stop loss trading main bahut jaruri hai ye hame bahut bade loss or margin call se bachata hai. lekin right stop loss determine karne main bahut problem aati hai.

[asanka]

stop loss amount should not be fixed one its depend on-the risk reward ratio and on going market condition ,when uptrend is going dont enter to market until retracement happens wait for the retracement then enter it helps you to put tight stop loss amount ,i don't have a clear idea about long term trading stretegys.

[ashikrobi]

Thank you Mr. Victoryindia moderator. I got the answer i was looking for many days. I was doing trade in one day and got 10 pips loss in my open trade. Then i thought i will not close that and wait as long as possible. I thought it will reverse. But you know for that open trade i loss my account in 4 days.

[sayem]

Actually it mainly depend on your trade. normally long term traders are not use stop loss but in short term you should used stop loss. in short term trade i think 50 pipes are safe i think and for long term its depend on you but 100 pipes can be safe.

[biplob]

I am new trader.Differents kinds of trader are like to trade differents pairs.I think that 50 pips is safe for trading.And you can profit by this pips.Some it depends on the market possition and your knowledge categori.

[pkdoo7]

SL order main 10 se 20 pip distance safe kaha ja sakta hai kyonki jyada ki setting karna risky ho sakta hai jab ki prices ki movement revese di rection main jaka r sl ko touch karti hai to position close ho jati hai aur hum less losses main apni trade finish karte hain agar distance jyada rakhte hain to losses bhi jyada honge aur ye hamare apne nirnay per depend karta hai ki hum kitnaa risk lena chahtehain .

[Amitpaul]

It is only dependent on yours strategy. But I think that if your capital is more you can take risk more.

scalping is the short term trading technique or we can say short time trading strategy and scalping don;t need much analysis so Stop loss is needed to be set and i usually trade scalping style and i set 15-25 pip in every trade to get daily profits.

[antosco]

Placing stop loss and take profit is a very significant decision that we must take into consideration. Before now, I found it very difficult placing my stop loss and take profit level until I discovered that the best way is to use support and resistance levels.

[engsmsm]

Many newbies ask me how many pips is safe for stop loss? I think its all depend on how much you afford to lose and we have to put stop loss by checking resistance and support levels, we should not put stop loss just by numbers.

Can not put the stop loss 50 points or 100 points just for luck only stop loss should be placed in areas such as good appointment, resistors and so on and I'm the best refrigerators in many cases

[yaqoobali95]

stop loss is used to stop the trade for the loss of some pips. it is very useful to prevent the whole balance to be finished. loss depends upon the trader that how much loss he can bear.

there are many beginners ask me how many pips is safe for the stop loss?? I think it all depends on how much you afford to lose and we need to stop losses by checking the levels of resistance and support, we should not stop the loss of just putting in numbers ...

[skboyra]

there is no exact level of pips that are safe. it depends on your expectation that how much you want to make profit and how much you can take that to face risk. for little investor i think that thirty pips are optimum to take profit or loss. you can hedge here within this range.

[Warrior-FX]

Your stop loss depends on your risk percentage and the volume (lot size) of your trade.

Here you have to pay your attention to reward:risk ratio also.

My strategy is to have more pips for take profit than for stop loss.

that means Reward:Risk ratio has to be equal or greater than one.

In this case also it should be determined by you according to the success percentage of your trading strategy. :)

[samcena33]

we can not generalize the exact pips for setting stop loss and as a conclusion i am of the view point that this depends on situation to situation and trader to trader

[solidperson]

for long term trading i think using 50-90 pips of SL will be safe and for short term trading 20-30 pips and for scalping 15-20 pips is enough ..but actually using SL no one use any method i think ..all we need to analysis the breaking point ..and some are using resistance and support for SL and TP

[saharia]

mere hisab se 50 pip hi thik hai act decline k liye. agar hum inactivity karnai ka socte hai toh woh amount maximum hi hota rehta hai 50 pip thak thik hai conclusion decline karna ya usse kam mai hi mai kahuga quit karke nikal jane ka...aur phir koi dusre patronage mai clear ka dekna ka.

[100 to 1,000]

10 pips is safe for scalpers or intra-day traders, 20 pips is enough for intra-day swing traders.
50 pips is enough for day-traders and of course, more is required for long term traders.
these numbers i get from the members from different websites and forums so i think they are reliable for use depending on your trading strategy.

[ndm]

how much pips do you think that they will be enough that you will have a stop loss is it necessary to have this in order to avoid to loss further and must not continue to loss in this application applying it is important or not

[mojan]

It all depends with once strategy if you think yours is good enough to scoup lots of pips then go then and do it becouse you will make it at the end of the road and have what you want at least even if you are a beginner can make 10 pips a day.

[shariful]

I think the SL 50 pips on the most secure of all time. However, it is more than in the Risk. I'm always trying to keep it in the SL 30 pips.

[megkobi]

To be honest i can say that 10 pip is safe for stop loss,but many confident traders think 30 pip is safe,i think stop loss depends on traders confident and analysis,expert can make nice analyze for that they take risk about stop loss....

[hemaelsisy]

in my thing i enter my position with 1% risk so i decide stop loss according this percent also stop loss must put in place witch have good meaning we does not put stop loss any place

[kazamonsif]

I believe there is no data SL and TP and depend entirely on commercial and strategy and depend on what balance it. for me, soemtime select 30 pips and 50 pips sometimes and it is based on the market but always put even tp and sl.

[william88]

I think 40 pips is safe for stoploss..Because if set to little,then it can out before even profit..
40 pips is not too little and too much..i think it is good already..

[mony1]

Trading support and resistance lines and one of the theories commonly used in forex trading and the key trading support and resistance levels is to recognize that these levels are not the prices of certain areas, but price

[mounira]

i think the stop loss should never pass 25 pips because when they do i think they will make to us a big lost and we will take a long time to cover it so we need to mange the money analyze the chart and put the stop loss the near points possible

[shuchi]

i believe SL should be of 50 pips i usually keeps sl with 50 pips and tp at 50 pips when we are in advantage we can use SL as to avoid departure in our trades as equivalent eff profit i mostly using it

[ghanchifarhan]

I always set my SL at the nearest support and resistance. Don't forget to add also the spread during setting the SL. Let's see the example. Current price for EUR/USD at 1.4221. Near support 1.4288, near resistance 1.4144. So for my buy post, the SL must be 1.4144 - spread - 1 pip. So SL = 1.4140. It's more safe. So my TP will be at near resistance or 50% using fibonacci.

[faisalanwar]

I think it has no limit. Its depends on market also Its just depends on you. When you think you need to stop. Just stop. but i think 50-100 is enough.

If you do not follow the strategy is good then even thousands of pips will not keep you safe from the stop loss and if you follow the strategy is good then I then some pips stop loss will go a good position.

Now, I only get to make a profit. Stop-loss is not necessary for those who want to manage funds. If you notice the movement of a blow and wait for the move to touch the profit. Fasten them to make a profit. This trade was the fourth stop loss. To take the market does not interest me, always just touches the stop-loss. Just the way I prefer this method and after that..

It is depend of the support and resistance level that where we have to place the stop loss determination but my point of view it is always look better to analyze the risk reward ration before trade and place the trade according to that law of forex.

[fxsilo]

hmm i like this thread.. for me the good and safe for SL is depend by what type of you're trade. if you're a scalper this is a problem to set a safe SL, because scalper trade with small pips, i think you must have a good analysis so the comparision of reward is more large than your lose.

[dodicandra]

It is depend of the support and resistance level that where we have to place the stop loss determination but my point of view it is always look better to analyze the risk reward ration before trade and place the trade according to that law of forex.

Yes. each of us doing the OP has always endeavored to follow the existing trend. and always use the TP & SL as one of the system one way to minimize our losses .. SL which I use 35-50, and TP 2xSL

[miketega3]

you have to calculate it by the size of your trading account never risk more than 2% of your trading capital on a single position ,but you can use 40pips as you stop loss on any trade

[sayem]

I think 50 pipes are safe normally. but this is for short term. if you have different plan and business strategy then you can set your own SL. but for long term trade your SL should have 100 pipes minimum. after this it depend on your capital also.

[safwan06]

i am agree with you, mate. quantity of pips are depended upon your ability. if you can understand the market situation, then stop loss can help you definitely . thank you.

Diffferent Trader adopt different numbers of pips while trading. Its depend on their investment and experience. so we cannot gereralize the exact pips for setting stop loss. its depends on situation to situation of a trader.

as far the trading thatr i do is concerned i try to make the trade based on the pivot pint analysis so the trades do not have stop loss more thatn the 30 pips naturally and the take profit is more than 50

[olki]

gating lots of pips is good for doing forex business , in my view i think we do need need so many pips for a day to sl in some cases it depends on you how much experience you have in this business.

[Ramnit]

i think that, most of the time i set stop accident according to the movement of the bazaar if the movement of the bazaar is not bright and trend aswell not bright again you charge to set stop accident at 150 pips but if every affair is bright again i anticipate you do not charge to set stop accident

i belive every traders must have a different opinion in trade.maybe 50 points daily will suffice,but there are some trader who prefer the 100 pips or even more to keep the stop loss in the business.

[100 to 1,000]

I think better to install the SL between 30-50 pips.
My experience using SL of 10-20 pips, but the market actually touching the SL and turned toward ...
so from now on I always install the 30-50pips SL ...

this is a good advise because it comes from personal experience; i think 30-50 pips is good for those who want to catch big pips.
but i think we must also adjust it with our trading strategy so we don't put too big stop loss.

[qasab]

it is an open question and atleast i am not able to give the sensilbe answer of this question as i know that the market move to every level a trader can imagine and therfor ne limit will keep a trader safe from hitting stop loss.

[Rifat]

i think using the stop loss is very important because it's help all traders to limit their losses and protect their account to avoid lossing the capital and i advice them to using also the money managment and risk managment because they have lot of benefits and advantages.

[cfxsignals]

Your stop loss has to take account was is optimal for your entry and take profit. Having a fixed stop loss is not ideal - but I have not found a better way yet. If your stop loss was too small, then its your entry that was wrong, not your stop loss. Currently I aim for 20-30 pips stop loss and no more on EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, EURJPY, GBPJPY.

[z234]

according to this question i want to say that there are a specific pips which is very important for safety in this trading but it can go down and up according to the market condition.

stop loss may vary from trader to trader, actually i think stop loss should be at the minimal distance crossing of which clearly indicates that ur trading strategy failed or its not a good time to trade.

[Bhavik Patel]

Ithink if we trade to take standard profits then 20 pips should e enough but 10 pips is lot of easy to take for me.but if we think as professional then 200 pips is good for long time trading.

[safayet39]

i would agree on what you have said about that if we fail on our first demo account why not make another accounts. its for free and we could be training hard on this kind of type. we could be more will prepared on during our trades in actual basis. demo accounts is our way on how to make trade in a practice mode and what type of strategies that we are going to try. theirs no harm in try some strategies if we fail theirs no regrets emotions that we have felt. in fact it could make as strong for the mistakes that we could make.

[Ramnit]

@safayet, True creating multiple demo accounts has on harm in it we as traders always get many chances to learn from demo accounts which we can implement in our real account for making good profits. We can learn with the virtual money and use the winning strategy which makes consistent profit in real account to reap good results

Stop loss and take profit is all the best tool for trader. every trader need use this tool for make money from online now we know forex business is all the best business and trader make money from forex market with their experience and knowledge .

The more the traders having the experience to guess the market trend,he can be accurate more in SL factor as i think with a good practice ,traders can make small pips difference SL ,which actually minimizes the loss also. But for that the target should be perfect also ,otherwise the SL hit occurance will be more compared to TP Hit.

yes, stop loss can be adjusted according to the level of the experience of the trader.
the more experienced the trader the more accurate he is at pinpointing the stop loss level.

For that, you can replace experience with backtesting your strategy. The more backtesting data you have, the better your stop loss prediction will be. After all, even if the past performance is not 100% accurate, it is still give you a better position than without it.

[ismail007]

USing trailing stop and fixed stop loss has each advantage and disadvantage, in my opinion if use trailing stop with setting 15 pips , possibility will hit stop loss is higher, because if look in 15 minute timeframe price movement uip and down around 20 pips , but its good if in trending market to lock profit

[toton007]

I think 50 pips is the best for stop loss (SL). If we can wait for a while to make this loss position higher, it will never upgrade. As a result loss will increase. So stop the trade at time of 50 pips and then start a new trade according to the strategy to make profit.

[ghysalgreen]

it depends on market condition,in my opinion i think it should be 50pips but it all depends on your skill,strategy and market condition

yes, I think so too, it all depends on the strategy and psychology that we have, if we do not have a good psychology, then we would be very difficult to be successful in forex

[pepoo]

Is stop-loss is due to the strategy followed and if you are doing deals long-term or scalping .. I think that the best place to put a stop loss order if you will open long position you place the stop loss order under another support at 20 or 30 points, so be safe ..

[moonzfriend]

Its totally depends on the Trader. Every trader has their own goals and targets and they trade accordingly and also their risk and profit percentage. I think it is better to trade on basis of your risk...

its pair to pair very. my thinking is here :
EURUSD = 100 pips
EURCAD = 80 pips
EURJAP = 50 pips
silver = 150 pips
Gold = 200 pips
#CL = 300 pips
#NG = 300 pips

[mohcine30]

in my opinion I think that the placing of stop loss for your position is the critical decision which you have to take so for that I think you should try to place your stop loss according to the support and the resistance.

[solidperson]

there is no equitation of setting and sl and this completely depends on our risking percentage ..if we set 20 pips of SL for mid term trade and 50 for long term then it can be very good decision but we need to set TP 50 for short and 90 for long term trading strategy which i m thinking

[raju21]

As a trader i am very cautious. I do not like bear any type of loss. So if i loss 10 PIP then then i think it is enough loss and i set stop loss in such way.

[shanti]

i do trade without stop loss but i set the take profit, and it make me comprtable for trading and especially when i can set it with relevant
and i see that you tried it at demo account and i wanna know, how big your virtual money ? because if you set it with the biggest then you will always win because you have good and enough to hold position for longer time and always, the trend will move back again after several times

[100 to 1,000]

I always try to set bigger stop loss about 104% of my take profit so that I can reach my target very quickly and setting of this two parameters basically depends upon the market situation.In volatile market I set higher stop loss.In most trade I keep its range within 200 to 400 pips.If it is 400pips then I fixed my target to 15 pips profit so that I can catch it quickly.

[njoroge5]

it only depends on how well you know your trades like these when you want to trade and make sure that you h ave some good startegies its better you have what you have and know what the market is all about. 50 pipsis ok for me because aI always aim for 5o pip a trade wich is 100 pips a week, if I gain the it would mean a drawback of 50 would take me back to where I was.

[kalatim]

in most cases, fear of halting the loss of half a trader different use of profit-taking or any dual-use or take advantage of a manual. but I use double-take profit. is it safe for me.

If you though of setting a stop at more distance than your target that is certainly not a wise decision - on the other hand we should ensure that stop is not at such a place for which chances are to for it to be triggered in usual market volatility.

If you don't like to use SL and exit target, and you just leave your trade open, there are two thing that might happen and it is just called gambling and you are not trading in Forex. You are just hoping that it will go in your way. But there is a big chance that you will lose all your money because you cannot be lucky every time you trade and risking all your money in every trade.

depends on how much funds in the account .., I manage a small fund to tide me my SL 20 pips., and also the same TP 20 pips, if I have another large fund which is sufficient to hold the margin, so I'll play with the intraday and I'll set the SL between 50-75, and if more than that may predict the trend will continue and certainly a long wait for the price will go back ...

I think 15 pips or 20 pips may be selected you for stop loss. But if your capital is more, you can raises it more.

I think you have a point, if we double his points that we will get, maybe SL will not be touched. But if I am, always look at market movements that day, if indeed the market is a trend, then I'll put up SL a bit far, but if the market is quiet, maybe SL will be somewhat close.

still i haven't use them for my trading. i am going with a demo account now and am practicing myself on how to become a good trader in forex . I already have made my business plan. i think that will be very effective for me.

With us can make a good trading plan can only be done if we had had a previous trading plan and have been run, because it is not easy to create a trading plan just once either directly, should be done gradually by fixing the previous trading plan to obtain the best

[esporti]

im not sure , but im taking in the average 40 pips to dont make a big risk and also im using the stop loss tool to dont eat from my balance

[Finix]

Many newbies ask me how many pips is safe for stop loss? I think its all depend on how much you afford to lose and we have to put stop loss by checking resistance and support levels, we should not put stop loss just by numbers.

of course placing stop loss depends on the opening of the position..i am on behalf of keeping stop loss tight..because if you analyze the market according to your trade strategy, then it will be good to detect the reversal conditions as soon as possible and keep the SL at an affordable place

[fantastic]

stop loss is very useful to maintain our accounts from margin call , sometimes I found price hitting my stop loss and then target achieved , I realized I was wrong because I put my stop loss after seeing small time frames , and discovered that the right to place it after seeing the largest time frames .

[pakforex]

SL are depends totally on the market situation it is because if you think market is in more fluctuation position at that time not use SL because most of times markets mostly up & down so this condition is not suitable for applying SL on the other hand you can 30-40 pips in SL

[Amitpaul]

It is totally depends on your capital here that you can select. Your capital can play a great role in the case.
I think that you should select 20 or 25 pips per trade as a stop loss.

[shariful]

Forex trade is very important to stop the loss of a topic, if you do not use trade to Los Angeles in time to stop, but you can increase the amount of damages, so the trade should be used when a spot in Los Angeles. I said, stop in Los Angeles all the time should be between 30 pips.

[sayem]

It depend on traders plan and equity. for short term trade i think 50 pipes are safe normally but for long term it should be 100 plus for safe. Generally who trade long term trade they do not use stop loss. but it is very important.

[shanti]

Even though i consider trading without stop loss is much risky and i wouldnt do it if i dont want to lose my account but i still cant consider it gambling to all people because i know that there are many traders who trade it without setting stop loss and still making good profits but usually such people are professionals and know how to trade with little risk even when they dont use stop loss

sir aese kuch be nahi kaha jaa sakta ye depend karta hai market position par aur sab se zayada is me important bat ye hai ke is ka andaza Stop loss se lagayaa ja sakta hai

[rasel]

According to my knowledge it should be greater than TP pips, But most of times i don't use Stop loss if we are trading with H1 then its better to have STop loss around 50 pips for H4 we should increase it.

[sanjeeb661]

Reasonably i agree with the post posted above.

[lekan]

let me use this as an example, if an trader is long USD at 85.00, they might wish to put in a stop loss order for 84.00, which would limit losses should the dollar depreciate, possibly below 84.00

[rakib20]

there are two kind of pips. if is safe this pips then we will get more profit by forex. so at first we need to safe pips.

[shoeib]

i think ke stop loss set karna ek accha idea nahi hai mai kabhi bhi stop loss set nahi karta hunn sirf take profit sett karta hun lkin fir bhi agar mujhe set karna pade toh mai 25 pips ka stop loss sett karna pasand karunga..

[Sk.Bappy]

yes you right..
stop loss depends on various conditions..it depend on individual,s study , his account balance, his experience etc..
so we can not generalize the exact pips for setting stop loss.. it depends on situation and trader

[Agazaman Awang]

different on condition how u play i often use pending limit oder just near the breakout level support 3 while sl just 20-30 pip below breakout level.while in the same time i pending stop sell at just below breakout sell 5-10 pip and stop loss above 10 pip support level. this strategy work well for me .

[benys]

trade without using any stop-loss and take profit target is the same as the trade without any purpose. I don't think any strategy will never support this type of trade. No matter what, you have to use stop-loss and take profit targets, so that you don't have any fear about losing all of the profits you earn or make huge losses that you can afford.

[nowsha]

As my consideration i installed SL 50pips extremum, to lot chance to move when there is price volatility. but equal tho' I installed SL for it, if gettable unmoved and suffered losses, the amount is not much than 10% of the capital that I bang.

[ras]

brother you are absolutely right,it depend on ones capital and support and resistence,it should be in break up point of resistence or break down point of support.

[pakkar]

Trading with out using any stop loss and take profit in your trades are okay if you are a master trader because you knew what you are doing. You knew already the risk you have to face. But for complete newbies in forex they need to use stop loss and take profit in their trading in order to protect their account from the market unpredictable moves.
yes, I do not always or some times using the SL and TP in trading and I often set below 10 pips SL, I think the time being I am just using this strategy for the security of my funds and the continuity of the next trading

[van]

every trader should have their own plans. Some choose to use SL fix, but there are some who like based on support and hold. I prefer to use SL repair, because we can know with certainty how losses/profits today.

[shabu0200]

It totally varies depending on your strategy.

20 pips sl can be too big and at same time, 500 pips sl can be low. It depends on which timeframe you are using and your risk:reward.
For my intra day trades I target 70-100 pips and use sl 50 pips in most cases.

[sathivai]

hello friend its totally depend trader won strategy and market condition .i am always try to earn minimum 10 pips from every trade

[zibon]

I think , for my strategic analysis my stop loss is 30 pips. its depends on market movement. Every time theres no need to set up stop loss. when i am confused the trade then i use stop loss.

[obayeed]

I think, if you do the placement of the SL 50 pips I think if you are a daily trader then when the price moves above 50 pips then it can be sure you're wrong in doing the analysis. SO trader should think about it in Forex.

[zahidrock]

I think it depend on you trading style. But i use hedge and i like to use 30 pips on stop loss. I think 30 pips is safe for me. So you can use 30 pips on stop loss for trading with securely in this business.

[place]

i am supporting stop loss because this is a option that can save us from big loss.we can save some good big loss.because i believe that stop loss will save you.but if you have not much good strategy then ignore it.

[rahat_slm]

There have no limit for stop loss. You can use it or not. If you use it you can set in different mode for trade. If you trade for a short time then you set stop loss little or not. If you trade for long time the you can set stop loss 10-50 pips for safety. Its depend on a trader.

[william88]

I think in usual market,not volatile one..
it is safe to use 40-50 pips to set the stop loss..because if u set too smal then it can be hit,before u have profit..

[ayusri]

I use 35 points only to SL because of the 35 points we can still tolerate is different from the example up to 50 points bgimana if we open the 2 position and ternyat los all harmful for the survival of our forex account can be our account will be wiped out for no reason and we can erugikan all because it's any better los berad in our control to go in our fund management if losberaap affordable to not damage our trading system could be los the moment but will be lucky even be back again so that was los taxable profit and return on investment and sl fortunately this is the point we make SL because there is still hope to profit by the los of this restriction.

[andrian]

why it is hard to define the target that we want to make pips in the forex market, until now I do not know how big the target pips I wish to make, everything is uncertain, sometimes I get the pips are great, sometimes not

[marunet]

I did a trade with a 4-hour time frame, and stop loss that I often use for my trade is 100 pips, and I think this is a safe stop loss for trade me, because I do a trade with a large time frame.

[anoha]

The number of points that we selected for the stop loss order return to the trading method and strategy that we follow if the deals long term must be a stop loss order at a distance of much of the access point and vice versa in the scalping .. I always think that the best situation is to stop loss below support if the deal and buy above resistance in the case of a sale ..

[raihan0301]

I Think 100 Pips Are Safe For Stop Loss.Because Market Is Always Up And Down.So If Market Movement Hit Your Stop Loss ,Your Equity Must be Decrease.So You Should Take 100 Pips In Stop Loss

[ayakcalysta]

One time, I bought all the currencies at low price, and I thought that the market would go up. So I waited. But eventually the market got down more, and then I had to suffer losses. So it was a very bad experience.

yes sir, in our opening we have jelih trade in analyzing and determining a good strategy. so we can minimize the possible risks for us. If you are a novice trader then it is better we have to practice using a demo account first.

[zahidrock]

I'm sure stop-loss and also take-profit is determined by marketplace situation, at times you are able to established stop-loss to help 30-40 pips solely and also sometime you can make this 150- 250 pips. The information about your current analyze and also marketplace situation.

very true, in my stop loss just to limit our losses only. i have been doing in forex trading is, never put a stop loss, for what? there are two choice, we can gain a lot, but we can also lose a lot. please specify your choice to select the best forex trading.

[fxsilo]

i think 10 pips are safe in order to make SL. this is my opinion. thank you.

10 pips is too low friend. market is up and down quickly so its very risky to set just 10 pips for stop loss.
if we are scalper i suggest to set stop loss more than 20 pips, maybe 20 until 50 pips enough. with scalping we should have a good performance in analysis because the scalping more risk than other strategy i think.

[joe12]

for me there are times that it depends on the trader whether his pips is doing great
the best thing is he/she should planned it well so that it prevent the loss

[terajana]

trader would set a stop lose according to the strategies they have, because sometimes there are some traders who have little limitation of losses they will get.

[digger_jim]

Let's take GBPUSD for an example. On average, GBPUSD daily range is 150 pips. So, on average, depending on how far GBPUSD has moved by the time you start your session, any number which would equal to 150 pips or more when you add the range it already passed for the day is safe enough. Or, if you just put 150 pips no matter what, on many occasion your stop loss won't be hit. Of course, on a certain day, when GBPUSD ranges more than usual, you'll doom if you happen to open an opposite position than price direction.

On the other hand, suppose price does move towards your stop loss for the day, and the day end when it is near your stop loss, what would you do?

If you cut it out, you loose big time.

If you'll wait for tomorrow, there is still a good chance that your stop loss will be hit before price turn around. You'll still loose big time.

So, the best way to decide the best stop loss for you is, again, checking your own strategy past performance. By which you should be able to tell how far a pullback could happen, and how far price should go before you decide that it isn't a pullback at all but a new trend.
