I am a newbie in Forex and I am currently practicing in demo. I always have 5 position open everyday and I never used stop SL and exit target, I just closed threads every time I earned a little., very soon, you will see your losses. Good luck.

The amount of pips that is safe for the SL in forex trading depends on our trading strategy. Long term traders can use a stop loss of 200 pips and the day traders can use a stop loss of 50 pips.

i think you can make stop loss double take profit to give you good chance to survive if the market reverse but if you make stop loss small the market will hit it and you will lose your position early so you must make it far to give you position more time
Good stop loss and take profit are the key point to get some good money from the forex and if the stop loss and take profit will be good then we can manage the money well for more better tradings.

if indeed you are often touched stop loss you may need to widen the longer distance of your stop loss price running and this may provide opportunities for the hard hit stop loss

I think Sl aur Tp account size pe depend karta hai ki aapki equity kitni hai aur kitne lot size use karte ho. Generally me Apna Sl 60 pips rakhti hu Aur tp1 30 pips tp2 60 pips aur tp3 100 pips. Aur jab tp1 ho jaye to BE pe aapna trade lati hu.

i think how many sl for each trader is different... it is depending from their trading plan, money management, and their risk management... but, most of trader use risk management only maximum 3% per trade... i always use that, and i usually setting 30 pip for stoploss... but that is depending from price direction, if market still same direction with my analysis i will let the price go to my tp...

i cant lose more than 30 pips. i have a stop loss of 30 pips most of the time so that means only 30pips loss if my deals goes wrong. so you can say 30 pips is my safe stop loss and i dont use any calculation to set the stop loss.

20 to 25 pips are safe for stop loss if you set it on more value then it give you more loss therefore you must watch the market and then place your order other wise you go in loss.
25 - 30 pips that you have mentioned is enough SL for traders in day trading strategy who are using mostly the 1 hour or 4 hour charts. The long term traders can still use 200 pips as their stop loss. This shows that SL in forex is not fixed, it depends on our trading style and strategy

actually setting stop losses is part of risk management and it is not eact science. you have to realise that you cant afford to risk a lot of percentage of your amount per trade so you have to be protective about your account, whether the stop is 50 pip away or 200 pip
Yeah in scalping using sl is not good because price moves so rapidly that it might return. And scripts are Download-able from MetaEditor.Also use close script to close orders when there are requotes.
but not all doing any such thing. earlier this scalper who use a script to open a position, so that SL directly specifying. scalped the dared weakness is no cutting when the loss of a loss. I guess it would spend all the profit that has been gleaned.

I generally open a trade for one to four hour. I give the stop loss twenty pips and give take profit forty to fifty pips. I think, it is good for me. Sometimes, I loose some money. But, overall I can earn about thirty percent per month.
Good money management. i think you have good calculate by the comparison of risk and reward you choose. Certainly many trader will make a low risk comparison with the reward, but i think is only happen in intraday trading or swing.

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.

If you are scalper then you can use 15-20 pips for stop loss but if you are long term trader then you can put this after making proper analysis. Without analysis it can be make you more loss on trading.

20-30 Pips is also my Stop Loss in Pips.. anyway, I set Stop Loss based on Support and Resistance Level. this Level is always changing and so Dynamic, it makes my Stop Loss not Fixed and always change.. so I just Put Stop Loss depend on Market Condition..

I think it's depend on market situation. then i want to say that around 50 to 60 pips is safe for stop loss. so you can try it. thank you.
every trader has different views on the stop loss because of the experience and resilience own funds, but the reason I think is right Paing looking for a point stop loss based on support and resistance in the last condition in a specific time frame

hi forum members,
in my point of view , i think we can not define how many pips safe for SL or TP because it depends on situation of market & the circumstances of the country its internal & external issues.
good luck :)

In present market situation the stop loss must be in very tight position. Since there is more volatility due to the market related news like growth, financial status of various countries.

well based on my understanding i think 30 pips is very much okay for a stop lose because any trade entered and 30 pips is lost then the trade is not really worth investing on so as for me i really think 30 pips is very much okay to set as a stop lose depending on the number of lot and the amount of equity you are having
fakermane
2012-08-09, 05:48 AM
I am Personally think that you should set it Dynamically Since Support and Resistance is always changing and not always the same. it actually supposed to be set according to your Risk and Rewards ratio that you are afford to take..

If the trader is hesitating to use stop loss in his trading then he might already be experiencing that many of his stop loss is easily hit by the market. That is not a good thing at all. Let us be reminded that use stop loss the right way, find your right stop loss level and start experimenting on your demo account first before using it on your live trading account.

hey arjun bro. i think sometime you will not set sl. just example= when you trade gold. and you give a buy order in right position. but in other pair you should use sl and tp must.
30 pips is good for sl. i use 30 pips. but some time more or less.

senengsego
2012-08-09, 09:32 PM
when price touches the stop loss, it means not safe. and for my personal stop loss that fixed it less good, I prefer the stop loss with the viewing and paying attention to support and resistance that is closest, because the market is very dynamic.

I quite agree with this argument, but I will also like to make an exception. Irrespective of market situation, it is important for the trader to put money management into consideration and this is in relation to the volume traded as at the particular time with respect to the amount of equity he has in his trading account. If the trader is willing to risk 50% of his account then he can set a stop that will wipe of half of his account if his analysis of the market is bad. Otherwise he can reduce his volume and risk less, which will allow him set a wider stop loss value.

For me i think there is no specific stop loss to be safety as there is thousands of strategies and each strategy has its own stop loss value that will be good for it as there is no specif value for stop loss that make your strategy good.

each type of stop loss will have a different size, because each type will use a different time frame, I prefer to use a daily time frame and use the type of swing, and I think the proper stop loss is 100-150 pips.

i think some wherever concerning 20-30 pips. however after all it shall be determined per your metric linear unit AN plans. risking our cash for a lot of extend is often some what stupid .we shall create AN acceptable place for SL's in our strategy.
akshay1728
2012-08-11, 08:50 PM
for calculating the safe sto loss you have to sue the support and the resistances and you can easily use the pivot pint for this which is i think is the best for calculting the stop loss and the take profit
hammer
2012-08-11, 08:58 PM
I think we can use the TP 10 and SL 30 pip pip which I think is safe, but every trader has his own ideas about how to determine the TP and SL. all depends on the rules of the strategies we use, for beginners like me do not use the TP is too big, because it is very difficult to achieve
zahidrock
2012-08-11, 09:45 PM
I think it is depend on technical analysis.If you can find the support and resistant level of the chart clearly then you can find the safe stop loss.It seem to me that 30 Pips is safe stop loss for all newbie.But before set Stop loss please flow the technical analysis.
I don't think that it depend on technical analysis. because it totally depend on strategy. If you have strategy then you can easily set your stop loss point on your trading.

In my opinion stop loss is a necessary for the newbies,its very important to stop the amount of loses using the stop loss because generally newbies learn with a small deposit.But some big traders can do without stop loss because they have sufficient balance in their trading account to manage without stop loss.

As a part time trader i can not afford much loss so for me stop loss limit should be 20-30pips. I can't afford more than that. It will be too much for me if my loss goes beyond 20-30pips.
teddy1909
2012-08-14, 01:38 PM
In my opinion, it is depend on your money management, how far you will risk your capital to get profit? How far you could stand for minus floating? And how much loss that you could handle? Level of the stop loss or take profit will come with your long experience.
How to lose this point is determined by the strategy followed by the
And should not be a loss of more than 5% of the capital and also depends on lot size Who will enter it.

In my opinion, I think around 30 pips is perfect for a stop loss if you are sure that the trend won't change much. If you aren't so sure, you can put trailling stop. It will give you better result. You can find out the infomation about trailling stop everywhere. It is a great tool.

Anytime, I can not think like that in Forex, what number of pips is safe for the stop loss, you should learn as fast as possible the money management, how to control and trade successfully, moreover the stop loss will be set up for us as the situation and market forecasts, and there is, how many pips it is safe to put the stop loss, which value lot? which amount balance? you have to learn the rules of money management to find out how far you can go on Forex.

Most of the professional trader on this forum says 30 to 50 pips is a good choice. I think it would be more helpful if we do our trade with no stop loss and wait for some pips. When we get those pips we should take those and do not wait for more. Sometime if we put 30 pips for stop loss market goes to this and we loss that trade.
maheshputta
2012-08-14, 08:40 PM
The number of pips cannot be mounted for any trade. It wholly depends on your kind of mercantilism and your capital, your limit to handle loss. If you're a speculator with minimum deposit then you need to set a decent stop loss and if you're a swing merchandiser with massive deposit then you'll afford to own a giant stop loss. however the question you had asked cannot be answered with a hard and fast range of pips.

I usually use 2% of the account by a trader, or if I have $ 10,000, my stop loss will be $ 200 And turn in 50 pips, risk reward of doing a 2 for 1. is a good strategy for risk management. and also a maximum of 10% of the total count, ie five operations at a time.

It is true Mod. Pips to be set for stop loss is usually depends with how many risk we are willing to put for in order to win or loss. If we win then it is great, but if we loss, then it would be a bitter experience though. For me, I don't use stop loss very much, it's like limits my earning of profits.

use stop loss in each and every position we make. we know the market can suddenly change its movement after a major news or announcement, and all our analysis with be a piece of crap in such situations so we should always use sl
to calculate and use the proper stop loss and the take profit use the concent of the pivot point it is very good and reliable to use and iwill give you lot of profit in your trading

In my opinion, we should be able to determine the exact moment when to cut loss and so that we can do the calculation and precisely in accordance with risk management that we make, then we should use a stop loss, is to avoid making the cut loss not exactly what we do, especially when a state of panic

Don't forget to put your SL, using SL is very important to manage the risk and security to our account, I also use it since the beginning of trading, but there is also a trader who is comfortable with no using SL because according to them the price will turn around and in accordance with the strategy and their risk management of capital owned

Yes 30 pips also good point for stop loss but i think every trader need to fixed stop loss on his trading strategy basis. If you choose stop loss point without your strategy basis then you need to set it on too long.

I think 50 to 60 pips are more than enough if you wanted to SL and i think we should not use more pips for SL because after than it may effect our TP which is not a good symbol and you may get loss if you use more pips.
Cowboy
2012-08-19, 11:50 PM
I think a trader need not to take more than 30 pips loss in trade if he takes more than 2% risk in trade.As we know that forex market goes to more lose if it crosses its 30 pips.so traders can set 30 pips in trade for stop loss.

the safest stop loss point/level depend heavily on several elements in your trading. it depends on your trading

There is no good planned stop loss as way as forex cares. It changes for each position. it's forever higher to provide enough area for the market to maneuver and putting in tight stop loss doesn't mean that you simply ar following a right cash manaegment system. It forever higher to identify the support and resistance level before setting the stop loss and take profit.

The stop loss is very important to use even if you are sure of your trade, the pips of stop loss should be set up to your strategy not up to others, I use stop loss from 30 to 50 pips at most cases

how many pips do you think is safe for SL ?
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.

its depends on my trading pair and volume. here i always see in my risk. so i set stop loss pips in my own strategy. but average 100 pips stop loss set in EURUSD pair. but other pair like USDJPY, EURJPY i set average 60 pips.

The stop loss that we should apply in forex trading is mostly dependent on the trading style we are applying and the risk reward ratio we are using for such trades. 1 : 2 risk reward ratio for day trading, 1 : 3 for long term trading and no SL for scalping.

If you are confused on what is the right stop loss level is perfect for your trading style then you have to go back in demo trading and experiments with your stop loss there. I am not sure if my 50 pips stop loss can suit your trading because we have different risk appetite.

It is totally depend on the fact that how long you can keep your trade open. If you have to trade for the long term then you can keep your stop loss too far from the position so that you will get good benefit of it but make sure that you have taken your position with the trend of the pair

Stop loss setting in Forex trading depends on the time frames of chart like M5,M15,M30,H1,H4,D1,W1.Usually for M15,time frame,stop loss is set to 30-40 pips.And for higher time frames like H1,H4,stop loss is set to minimum 50 pips.Stop loss is very much important cause it protects us from huge loss.

In my experience in forex trading a trader should be set his stop loss where his stop loss is 2%. I use this method to set my trade value Amount/1000 as a result where my loss is 20 pips here my loss is 2% and this point I set my stop loss. I think it is the best for maximize a trader monthly profit.
First you have set your target that I am gonna take 50 pips profit then your stop loss should be set on in 30 pips. Try to Always set your stop loss from the support and resistance area and if wanna more confirmation you can also set your stop loss from Doji or Hammer.

i think before learning how to do stop loss w must learn about the reversal and retracement because if we learn it we can adjust the stop loss easily because we some times make stop loss and the market reverse and some time we put stop loss and exit the position and waste many pips we can earn it but because we exit we lose it
fxmoney
2012-08-26, 10:09 PM
It is better to place the small number of pips for the stop loss target as you have to make more profit from your trade rather than the loss. So just try to minimise the loss but increase profit by placing the stop loss at proper place.
I agree with you. In my experience, there is no mention pips is stop loss. its depend many tools. First market situation, trader experience, and his account balance. If A trader can start his tread properly and maintain equity than pips no matter.I think 50 pip is enaugh.
Though i never like to use stop loss order because i confidently placed order by the proper money management and needs for time , and it should need the time for execution and that's way to proceeds.

There are no fixed amount that can be said as a good value because by hitting SL you always get losses. But it depends on you that how much loss your account can tolerate and also you have enough free margin to open another position.

I am more flexible in placing the SL is, because I see that the market first before placing this SL. so there is no definitive benchmark in the calculation puts this SL. because I think we could better adapt to the market and our analysis. provided we can analyze the market well, we would always be able to put SL properly.

I think, safe pips depends on market situation and individual capital also. So market situation will tell what pips will be safe for me just now. But I think SL 10 to 25 pips may be the safe.
I argue that we ought to put SL does not refer to how many pips, but we must pay attention to support and resistance points so that we attach SL is not easily touched by price.

Setting stop loss a take profit depends on market situation..
sometimes u can set stop loss to 50 pips only & sometime u can make it 200 pips..Its all about ur study a market condition..
usually I rarely use SL. but suggest using SL at the time you've got profit we set, if you nenetukan TP50pip then Sl30pip.
This just shows some of the possibilities that will happen.
The next thing is to learn patience. Frankly I am basically not include people who are impatient. Hehehe ... I actually learned patience than I do open early trading position, I use more than 20% margin. I think, the more margin used, the cepet dapet profit. Hehehe ... Not only that, I like the rush to open position when prices are moving in a direction that "in my opinion" is clear. By my mentor, I was trained to comply with the trading system and trading plan that I specify and use only 1% margin perposisi!

50 pips of SL means purchasing value or selling value from that 40 to 50 pips SL is very good.
with this you can easily make double of the SL profit.

for me stop loss set base on my Money Management.. and take profit 1/4 of my SL... in this case, i always avarage in one trading i take 10-15 pips only.. with lot about 1 - 2. by this strategy my account still strong and have regular WD every month...
but.. all traders have owns strategies and ways to their trading rule..
stop loss (SL) is a very good way to prevent the account we get huge losses during trading. we all know that forex is very risky. in order to set the SL, it depends on the amount of money we will invest. if we do not take the necessary action, we're sure going to lose all our money. so setting a SL just help us to solve the problem.
Stop loss should be made with keep in mind different things like as market situation, our account balance, take profit limit etc. I am always set stop loss by consider all these factors in my trading, some time i set stop loss 30 to 40 pips and few times i made stop loss 100 to 300 pips from price of my open trade in Forex.

One human weekness is they want to lose least and gain the most, for this they usually go with very smaller stop loss which usually triggers with normal volatility resulting in frequent losses to trade, we should set a stop loss which shall be triggered only when there is real direction change in market.

I think the ideal stop loss for a trade should be at 100 pips because if the fluctuation in the market is 100 pips up or down, there is very less chance that the market will come back at the starting point of the trade and there are more chances that the market will continue to move in the same direction resulting in more loss. So SL at 100 pips is ideal in my opinion.

I used stop losses sometimes and I combined with martiangle or averaging if it was necessary but mostly, I will use stop loss in forex trading because it's safer and easier to use than another risk management strategy. If the condition is unstable, I will use stop loss but if I am sure with my analysis then I could use another risk management strategy.

well based on my understanding i really think 30 pips is very much okay for a stop lose because the more we are losing 30 pips of our trade then i think we just have to exit the trade because that means we have enter a wrong trade so based on my opinion i really think 30 pips is very much okay for a stop lose
Ten pips is most likely secure for individuals who industry utilizing intra-day buying and selling design but it is most likely excessive with regard to scalpers.
with regard to different kind associated with buying and selling individuals generally place 30 pips, Twenty five pips, Thirty pips as well as Fifty pips.
maybe we can use about 30 stop loss if we are want to do the scalping on the forex, i thin tjat just use 30 pips stop loss is enough do not need to do mor or we can depend on the analysis that we have on the forex too to use the stop loss
stop loss degree that is greater than take revenue level is nice if you can grasp the buying and selling style if not your profit is going to be wiped out in one hit upon SL.
but i observe many people be successful using this technique also. usually they put such as SL 50 after which TP 35 or something like that to that.

i think the safe pip for stop loss is the small than the bigger because if we make big stop loss we will lose big amount and if we use small stop loss we will lose a small amount, this way we make profit more than loss.

Yes! you're right that Stop Loss depends on traders capital and his mentality of taking risk. But, I don't like to trade with S/L because, Forex market always ups & down. So, if we can keep patient than we may make profit.

it depends on your account balance and lot volume. actually all the calculation should be made in pips. if you have 2000 pips(depends on your lot volume) in your account then certainly you can take a risk of 200 pips. so according to this set your SL as 200 pips. have nice time in forex.
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...
Always I use TP in my trading using 10 pips for big lot and 50 pips for small lot and sometime use SL using 30 pips base on the market condition. Most of the time I use the TP because if I hold the trade at a time prices come to the point this is for long term. I am not agree to close the trade in loss.

Stop loss should be set to avoid the deep draw down leading to margin call. so setting of stop loss at right place needs good amount of experience in that particular pair and it should depend on the volatility in that pair. Because many times the stop loss will be triggered and later the price starts moving in the direction of our prediction.

Setting stop loss and take profit depends on market situation..sometimes you can set stop loss to 50 pips only and sometime you can make it 200 pips..Its all about your study and market condition.. I think there is no particular SL and TP and it depend fully on trader and his/her strategy and depend on how much balance there.

Basically perform scalping or even temporary industry, however generally make use of a stop loss of fifty pips. I perform scalping if you find an essential information to become launched or even once the cost offers handled the idea associated with support or even resistenci stage.

I think it's 50 pips. That is a better stop loss pips you need to sacrifice in your trading. Don't worry as long your analysis is right the market wont hit your 50 pips stop loss...that is why it is also important not to rely much on stop loss instead focus more with your good analysis of the market to avoid too much wrong market entry.
I have never used stop loss, I always wait the market to return to my way, whether it takes days or weeks. I still advocate to use stop loss because sometimes market correction does not let the trader to draw back to neutral situation. :accute: Reasonable should be 50 pips.
the previous assistance level is nice as the stop-loss point for any buy placement and previous level of resistance is a good stop-loss for market position.
many people also use the actual fib level to put their stop-loss level whilst others also like to place their sl from pivot stage levels.

yes, i do believe the most dependable stop loss stage is the the one that we previously used earlier. but we occassionally also need to adjust
that according to the industry condition or why not be prepared for media release to hook the price movements.

i think some where about 20-30 pips. but of course it shall be decided according to your MM an plans. risking our money for much extend is always some what stupid .we shall make an appropriate place for SL's in our strategy.
I think it's better to set SL about 30-40 pips from open position and if it's possible, SL point is below than Support or above than Resistance because Support and Resistance point is not surpassed easily so SL point is not easily hitted too if the SL point is below Support or above Resistance.

Stop Loss is more uncertain, as some positions will be automatically closed when we consider the losses are too great. Obviously the size of the loss for each position has been taken into account in our trading plan. So, psychologically, SL does not cause doubts

We always need to follow the best combination's pips ratings i.e. euro/usd. Because more the time they are moving between 40 to 50 pips. So we need to restrict within 50 pips. But if we able to skip stop loss indicator and continue our position then we can get more profit. Because some time it may move up to 150 pips.

No, our experience does not decide where we set our stop losses in forex trading. Basically, our risk reward ratio and our forex trading strategy are the two things that we traders need to put in place and consider when we are taking trading decisions.

to get pofit and megamankannya in markets that are trending I often use tight stop losses by placing a stop loss a few pips only to often move the stop loss price movements occurred after this very effectively to secure profits, and this should be done with caution and move fast and for each of these may be adjusted to the selected strategy

It is totally depend on the risk that you take on your trade. if you use higher risk then you must have to place the stop loss to near and if you use lower risk then you have to place the stop loss far as you have good margin for your trade.
I think the good stop loss for the good traders are the 100 pips because this stop loss is not hitted normally and most of the chance are that if the stop loss is hitted then the movements in the market will be looking naturally and we can get the good money from the market

I think that a trader should use stop loss about 20 pips away from the opened price.Many traders don't want to use stop loss as it may touch the price and automatically close the trade which creates a loss.So they avoid it, but a trader should know that using stop loss can save our account at any market movement.Traders who don't use stop loss are bound to make loss.I have also lost huge capital.So i suggest all to use stop loss.

a trader who wants to make as much money as possible needs to expect 40% to 60% drawdowns in his trading. In his view, the 60% drawdown is the point where a trader needs to stop trading to reevaluate things. But, if you do not have a 40% drawdown every few years, you are not trading aggressively enough to max

depending on the style of any trader and market conditions. in a volatile market should be installed sl bigger around 100 pips.
and conversely, if the market is stable then sl can be mounted on a 30 pips only. I used to use sl 40 and tp 40
According to me, 20pips is enough for stop loss , if you have more capital for trading then you can use stop loss more then 40pips, now i have no more capital for trade so i use only 20 pips.

I don;t think any SL is safe. I think a reasonable level to take is 50 pips but any more then you need a good reason to do so. 50 pips should mean that you escape any noise or random hunts.
