some of are using support and resistance for SL and TP ..but i think we need a clear analysis technique either this is fundamental or technical and form that analysis we must find our the entry and exit point ..yes actually entry and exit point based on guess by the favor of analysis

I use strategy and money management in forex trading, So I use stop loss and take profit. I usually use 2% from capital in risk. My target in one day is 1 % from capital.

I concord swell its outmatch to designate the sl and tp targets instead of many ergodic figures but both people elevate to set a nonadjustable train in all positions. And this method is not modern in my thought and its advisable to jazz some calculations using whatever techniques.

There is one more thing if we could not accept the loss, then we can outsmart the hedge multiple lots, then so if you have any predictions, then you will still generate profits, but if the price moves sideways without end, I'm sure you'll get margin call

"Usually stop loss is calculated as half to take a profit is equal to the proportion of 1: 2
And must know that stop-loss varies from trader to another and varies from time frame to time frame last "

Calculate stop loss and profit taking account of these processes depends on you a trader and depend on the strategy adopted by the terms of entry and exit points
So I see that this process vary from store to another

in order to make profit and protect profits from loosing we have to calculate our stoploss and take profit or TP targets. in my decision is to take profits only 10pips and there will be no more problem of loosing. i want t make profit little and not to loose at all. thank you.

we will put the stop loss and take profit because the market dynamic in nature so we just follow what the price. Now You TP should be at the ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 or your stop loss. If your stop loss is at 10 pips your tp should be at least 20 pips.

I agree with you using the TP: SL with a ratio of 1:2 or 1:3, but it would be safer if we use the ratio of 1:5, because of the possibility of SL will be touched to be getting better. use with your own risk. ;)

My stop loss is not that tight because I don't want the market to hit it too easily. It would be worst if you just set your stop loss a seconds ago and your tarde is already stop out. That would really make me upset and annoyed. Sometimes cut loss is the best choice if you dont want to set stop loss.

If i see a level which i can think of solid reasons will not be breaked by market, i would like to set my stop below that - yeh i dont want my stop loss to trigger just because market is volatile. Also if i see reasons for market not going above that level, below that i will set my target for my long trades.

Yes this is good way to analysis market. I use 30pips loss and 50-100 pips profit. On one make sure himself to 100% successful in forex it's just predict. If my trade hit SL then i loss.

the calculation of stoploss and take profit is a mirage to people due to lack of knbowledge of how to place it. you can simply do this by the calculation of the daily pivot points which will further reveal the point of support and resistance.

I always show the previous fluctuation of market and then I assume & calculate stop loss & take profit for a particular trade.I always stop loss is very higher and take profit is very low nearly 4% of my stop loss so that I can reach my target very quickly and I become successful in 95% of my total trading by using this method.Again in which I become unsuccessful I don't lose my capital.

I just want to get profit 20 pips in one day was minimal and could be more depending on how the market on that day but sometimes I put it about SL in the lowest or the highest price that day

No need for a forex currency exchange trader to target monetary amounts in their trades, this could lead to greed. It is best that a forex trader should make targets in their trades in terms of pips.

There are many factors upon which the calculation of the take profit and stop loss depend .I make an entry according to support and resistance value and then I calculate stop loss and take profit by the upper and lower fibo value that falls near my entry.

For me, it is hard to calculate stop loss and take profit targets because there is no fixed or perfect SL and TP that we can set because the market has different movements and there are times when we need to use only smaller tp and sl and also times that we need to use bigger tp and sl. It is up to the trader to put what they like and they can gain it from experience.

I determine my stop loss perfectly by asking myself how much am willing to lose today? If I can live with out $20 then I will set my stop loss proportioned to it. If I lose a trade I will just trade be very careful next time because another losing trade can harm my trading balance considerably.

It depends on the market situation. If the market is stable I put stop loss 20 pips and take profit 30 pips. On the other hand, if the market is more volatile I put stop loss 30 pips and take profit 50 pips.

stop loss will limit your losses if the market does not move in the preferred direction. Setting the take profit level will make sure that the trade exits in profit once the market makes the downward move that is expected. It can be an advantage to set these levels when you place the trade because once the trade is actually in the market, the pressure can make it difficult to make decisions

KOULL12
2012-06-29, 08:40 PM
that way also. but to have some more accurate target is beneficial. Earlier whaen i used fixed targets, I had my positions closed on a loss many times because the stop loss target was touched first before it went passed my take profit

Lyubov

When using a stop loss means that we are ready to risk in forex trading, which is losing money in accordance with acceptable risk. Therefore, the stop loss is one of risk management that should not be placed haphazardly. Traders should try to find techniques to manage stop loss, stop loss as much as possible not to touch it first to be touched first is TP.

Iff i am selling i put my stoploss just above resistance and take profit just above support level .
If i am buying i put stoploss just below support level and take just below resistance levels . They differ in value according to situation .

usage of stop loss and take profit in forex trading is very much important.every trader who are trading in forex for several months can guess the importance of using stop loss and take profit.so it is set after calculation of market condition.the calculation of setting SL and TP is using support and resistance.the sl is set support and tp is set on resistance.

we should do the transaction using a stop loss as to secure the capital we also secure our profit from the price correction that drops drastically and quickly.
because not a few people who have lost profits and turned into a very serious loss. only because of price movements in reading.

Lyubov
2012-06-30, 08:26 PM
I usually use three rules to determine STOP LOSS and Take Profit: 1) its small TP, 2) the transaction near the the line-pivot uspport-resistance, and 3) the daily range has reached approximately 75%

There's no such calculations for the stop loss or target profit because it will going to determine to the traders who wanted to have their own set up those two. For me, as much as possible for small trading capital to have smaller target profit and stop loss to be sure its near to reality.

dapsz123
2012-07-04, 12:48 AM
With no doubt we all know that the trend should be like TP order level should be bigger than the stop loss index. It's just a question of the ratio. If you know that you're not going to be available to check what's on the market then the ratio should probably equal to 1:3 (SL:TP) or even more and if you have a little more time to be engaged into checking then I'd suggest 1:2 or less.

ismail trader
2012-07-05, 06:46 AM
to determine the stop loss before we need to know first how much we can accept the loss in one position.
if we are only able to receive 1% of the capital, then use it as a 1% stop loss value fixed for us, but sometimes the condition certain we can loosen the 1% to 5% if it was indeed the case reversal or contraction in the money market, so we need to wait until prices go back swing to the right track.

calculations depends on the trade you have done that what kind of trade you opened if you opened the trade with constant fluctuations moving up and down then i use the maximum loss and minimum loss point using the candlestick chart time frame of 5 min i calculate that what are the maximum loss and profit in the previous 5 min on the chart it helps me a lot.

Correct calculation of stop loss and take profits are very important for our positions to get a good profit and also to minimize the losses if the position are running against the market. So how do you calculate these sl and tp targets?

permission answered, speaking calculations stop loss and take profit is usually larger stop loss or loss derived from the profits obtained by the calculation that is the risk that we are ready to receive, while to the best positions usually require point support and resistances as well familiarized with the trading pending order position

It depends on your positions and you lot size , I usually use 3 % of my margin to as a stop loss level and 6 % for the take profit level. but you can change it as much as you want, and it depends on your risk management,

For my target profit is not so targeted. But to put Stop Loss I always take into account the range of the pair, and I would add to the daily movement of the pair, and I adjust what I have capital. After that I adjusted all.

yes its have to dont in all of our trade set SL with proper money management otherwise its not possible to live long in forex . and we also need at the same time to set TP because exist at the right time is also very important because if we dont do it then our profit trade may go loss again.

Using fib is one good way to get your profits and stoploss target however, there are times when fibonacci fails, this is why knowledge of the underlying market trends along with price action should be combined with fibonacci

sad
2012-07-07, 05:38 PM
I would rather say that take profit is the key to traders success. Though the stop los minimize your risk, it still ensures that you take a loss. The take profit however is what ensures that your trade gets to the desired profit if your signal is right.

All traders in forex must apply the stop loss in their forex trades in order to make good progress in their trades in forex. The stop loss calculation can be achieved through the application of the risk reward ratio in forex.

-target that is large enough if it is 30 pips per / trading in a day and if your target is 10 times or more open positions, then I think it's a very big target. Let's not forget to put stop losses with a ratio of 1/3 compared to the target take profit

Part of the trader to set a target by using random numbers to StopLoss, I takeprofit and most of the Fibo in order to calculate the objective of the TP and SL calculations also use some personal targets and the use of time, when I have enough time is being used to my random target well sometimes, and spend transactions, point, to use the targets to position all of us to be very important

boniez
2012-07-08, 06:51 PM
so far I think only take profit, because to me it is better if we only think of profit to be more advanced and it is very important not think of loss, even though we still have to consider it as a risk.

Its good to apply SL and TP levels according to support and resistance levels, i too apply my SL and Tp according to these levels but sometimes when i need quick profit i apply TP on 10 or 20 **** and SL depends on the situation on the market.

2012-07-08, 07:25 PM
i use pivot zones or support/resistances to calculate profit and loss levels.
or sometimes i use predefined values to calculate the values.
i use fixed ratio of Profit loss level like 2:1.

i do not understand about pivot and i see that you have good knowledge about it and can make easy to set with good, so please can you tell me how to use it and is there any link for us ?

sad
2012-07-08, 07:36 PM
To set the SL and TP with the ratio of 1:2 isn't good in my view, to get help with fibs points is great. If our TP is 20 **** than our SL will be 10 ****? We cannot apply 100 **** profit in every position.

there is no rules to set stop loss or take profit ..actually we are doing technical analysis and draw the line using our method and guess the TP and SL ..but yes some are using resistance and support level as SL and TP but i think using SL and TP is completely personal matter and no rules are in that

Too many times, it is impossible to apply that technique. If you based your stop losses on your profit target, price could and does turn back a little but hit your stop losses before continue on its original way. To based your profit target on your stop losses, too many time price doesn't reach it and turns back.

The best approach is checking your strategy past performance. How far a pull back could reach using your strategy, how far a profit can be achieve. Then use the biggest stop loss ever reached and the smallest profit ever achieved.

Some method one uses, its e'er improved to hump these targets on every condition we unfastened. Though i comfort judge that several form of planning is always change to change than a ergodic illustration as the train, we should set these targets in every trade even if it is a haphazard image. this testament exploit in minimizing the amount and to consolidate the construction.

yes, we will get loose of two trades profit if we get loss in 100 pips.
but that is must happen and that is a business, we will get the risk until loose of two trades profit. so we must improve our skill or analysis so not often to get the risk.

Stop loss should be taken in consideration when making a trading plan, of course many times stop loss will be hitted before reaching the target.Right after buying the stock you enter a stop-loss order for $18. This means that if the stock falls below $18, your shares will then be sold at the prevailing market price

To set the SL and TP with the ratio of 1:2 isn't good in my view, to get help with fibs points is great. If our TP is 20 **** than our SL will be 10 ****? We cannot apply 100 **** profit in every position.

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

Its good to apply SL and TP levels according to support and resistance levels, i too apply my SL and Tp according to these levels but sometimes when i need quick profit i apply TP on 10 or 20 **** and SL depends on the situation on the market.

[target that is large enough if it is 30 pips per / trading in a day and if your target is 10 times or more open positions, then I think it's a very big target. Let's not forget to put stop losses with a ratio of 1/3 compared to the target take profit

I would rather say that take profit is the key to traders success. Though the stop los minimize your risk, it still ensures that you take a loss. The take profit however is what ensures that your trade gets to the desired profit if your signal is right.

stop loss and the take profit is a type of scalping. the calculation of stop loss generally you have to take on the basis of market situation and your expectation. i think 30 pips is well for stop loss to minimize the risk.but vary from individual to individual.

Always remember that you must have to target in the ratio of 2:1 as your profit will be of double and loss will be of half of that profit that you have to gain from your position. If you are long term trader than you can use trailing stop so that you will not lose on your trade.I always use 1:1000 though it's risky. But, what is trailing stop? is it stop loss? I always use stop loss to prevent margin call. I don't wanna be ruin that is why I use stop loss. Thank you so much.

redlion
2012-07-22, 04:52 PM
the stop loss and the take profit depends on the amount of risk you are prepared to take and the profit the you intend to make from the trade. if you are prepared to take a high risk that is if you are prepared to loose more then you can have a higher stop loss or if you want to minimize the loss set the stop loss at a lower value and the take profit depends on the trading strategy that u use and the amount u wish to earn as profit. on a sure trade with a large movement you can set it high but if the volatility of the market is very high then i would advise to use a lower take profit margin because u can never tell the point at which the market changes direction.

To calculate stop loss and take profit, you must calculate the risk of the market first. You only able to calculate the risk of the market when you already know about the characteristic of market movement and pair characteristic. Once you calculate the risk, then you measure your account endurance and your exit strategy. After that, you could decide where you should place your take profit and stop loss.

I think Stop loss is very important.It is important to use 1:2 For SL:TP .This is very important.Think like this.I will give you some examples,
Daily you open 10 trades(Normally)
You use 1:2 as your management,If SL = 10pips You must add TP = 20
After you trade,You loss 5 trades and won 5 trades..Now we calculate your profit.
Profit=20 * 5 = 100 pips
loss = 10*5 = 50 pips
Total profit = 100 - 50 = 50 pips.

If your stop loss is at 10 pips your tp should be at least 20 pips or 30 pips.Losses are part and parcel of the customs and forex trading.we need to know how to control the losses from growing.

You could predict stop loss and take profit level with a lot of strategy, example : Elliot's Wave, Fibonacci etc. Better if you take some space when you set stop loss or take profit for security reason. Not always the strategy is the same with market movement, personally, i set stop loss and take profit lower than my calculation.

I always use a set stop-loss and a take benefit of 30 pips. That is a quantity i'm willing to reduce and the benefit is enough for me.

i always trying to discipline for my rule trading plan... and i setting the maximum for loss in one day is 30 pip or 3% risk... and i just let the profit run till the limit if i am in floating plus... but the minimum i must get 2% per day... so if i accumulate for 1 month i can gain 40%...

we can not determine with certainty where we will put the stop loss and take profit because the market dynamic in nature so we just follow what the price is at that time agree using support and resistance areas as sl and tp is a good way to trade, in fact there are different methods that people use to set these targets and i this thread is showing me how people are using different techniques to set these sl and tp targets....................

Its easy to calculate stoploss and take profits levels you have to plot pivots indicators and according to resistances and supports you have to put stop loss and take profits levels.

I think this is not too easy to calculate stop loss and take profit point. In previous most of the time i use pivot table for set stop loss and take profit point but most of the time market touch my stop loss point on first time. So i think you need to calculate on your strategy basis.

Smile How do you calculate stop loss and take profit targets?

Correct calculation of stop loss and take profits are very important for our positions to get a good profit and also to minimize the losses if the position are running against the market. So how do you calculate these sl and tp targets?

calculate stop loss and take profit target, trader must have to understand market trends. then he can analysis. there technical analysis is better. then trader can fixed target and take risk. so calculation is easy. clearly stop loss and take profit depends on market trends. but i have own strategy. i never take high risk. i think 5o pips is better for stop loss. and i use it. but for profit i use trailing stop. its better. here i use 35 points.

Stop loss order is an important order for all my forex transactions because it is better to stop our losses and take smaller losses, than let our losses run and risk the disheartening possibility of a margin call.

hi friends,

in my opinion, i think its depend on the money management or its depend on the analysis but some people blindly follow some round figures to put SL and TP.
goooooooooooooooood luck :)

i put my take profit order and stop loss during the trading, i mean when i analyse the chart i predict the direction and the near price that the market will hit it, and i put the stop loss with the money that i accept the losing of it thats all my plan and i think its good

I am still practicing in my demo and I usually put 5pips more of SL to TP, I always do that or else not putting SL anymore. But it usually depends on the market, if I sees I have the advantage in my position I put higher TP than SL, maybe about 15 more higher. I'm not sure if anyone would agree with me to that.

I believe it's not too an easy task to analyze sl and also tp position. With preceding most of the time i exploit pivot desk regarding arranged sl and also tp position but most of the time trade feel my personal sl position upon first time. Therefore i believe you have to analyze with your tactic time frame.

I can calculate and take profit target easily in trade from my technical analysis.But sometimes i use signal and if they tell me to use huge like 100 pips to set tp then i use 80 pips my tp.In this way i set my stop loss order in my trade to minimize my lose.

yes, we will get loose of two trades profit if we get loss in 100 pips.
but that is must happen and that is a business, we will get the risk until loose of two trades profit. so we must improve our skill or analysis so not often to get the risk.

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

you are a good trader, but i have one question to you, is sometime you greed to make the second position?
50 pips are good. when we are can doing that consistently i think the result is really good. 50 pips is huge value, even i just set my target about 10 pips per day and sometime i loss some pips in a day.

i calculate my stop loss and take profit orders by Fibonacci levels, i use Fibonacci retracement and Fibonacci expansion for daily, 4 hours, monthly and weekly chart, and this gives me a fair picture of possibilities in forex.

SL is calculated as half to TF is equal to the proportion of 1: 2.
And must know that SL varies from trader to another and varies from time frame to time frame last.

I hope to gain 40 pips per day, of course with a look at the evolving situation. between sl and tp I usually use a 1:1 ratio. if you set a target of reaching 10 pips profit it posted stoploss also 10 pips.

i think to be calculating the stop loss and take profit you should be checking out the volatility of the market and also it depends on the capital amount in your trading account and should have a nice practice on demo account

Donald Loe Bank

If your stop loss is at 10 pips your tp should be at least 20 pips or 30 pips. The stop loss is calculated according to the money management rules that is to risk 2% of your capital in a trade so your stop loss should be at the level of 2% of your capital. Now You TP should be at the ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 or your stop loss.

To me all the time SL and TP is not fixed to me because i decide it base on the market situation, sometimes i take target for 50-100 pips when market is more volatile and 20-30 pips is peace. Also some times i follow the adviser comment to decide it.

I always flexible to take into account the stoploss and take profit. because I always relied on market conditions at that time. so in placing stop losses and take profit I had no estimates exist, the most important thing we must have a good ability to analyze and market conditions. so we will always be right in placing stop losses and take profit.

may be u r new to forex...kyun ki forex mein stop loss aur take profit humein position open karne ke pehle hi choose kardena hota hai yahi ek acche trader ki nishaani hai jo puri taiyaari ke sath medaan mein aye.... pehle position kholna fir market ko dekhnaa galat hai aur harmfull hai

the calculating of the stop loss is needed because you need to trade just with the money that you are ready to lose it, for me i analyse the chart and i see what i can do as a profit and what is the direction of the trend line and open my deal with take profit and stop loss with the loss that i can bear it

it is very ideal that if you make a target of 30 pips per day, enough better than the greedy despite emerging market support to increase profit. but you should be able to do calculations based on mature financial, risk management and volumes to be transacted.

a good stop loss is 60 pips farther.

i always risk 3-5% in every trades that i had,and iset my SL and TP about 1 : 2...
so if i get two stop loss hit,it would be BEP only with one TP hit,example : set TP 40 pips and sl 20 pips

sweetrevenge88
2012-09-25, 12:14 PM
If I am doing Intra day trading I set my stop loss at 30 pips and take profit at 20 pips. If I do scalping I don't set stop loss just take profit target. There is never a perfect set up for SL and TP,it all depends with your risk preferences.

One of the first things we learnt as traders was the importance of paper trading and learning how to set your risk rewards ratios properly. This is one of the most basic of trading principles.1.Figure out the distance of the currency market price to your target price(in pips). Once you have this number write it down. 2. Now take the total number of pips from the current market value and divide this number by the reward value to work out the risk ratio. 3. Now that you know the risk reward values, go ahead and reward value and set these two numbers as your stop loss and take profit levels.
