Using Trailing Stops to Protect Profits.

trailling stop is very usefull to protect and keep safe our profit.
i am also often use this tool, usually i use it when i trade in the news, because the movement is very fast and when i get profit in my position, i use TL so i will not fear if the market will turn back.

Using trailing stop is a good tool but I never use it because I do short term trading and I usually close my trades for very small profits. Trailing stop is the basic need of those traders who want to wait for more profit once they go in profit and they don't want to close their trades so they put trailing stop so that their trade close on profit in case the price reverse.

wese main es k barey main itna nahi sona or ager ye stop loss se related ha to phr waqai karaamad cheez ho gi kioun k stop loss waqai ap ko margin call or high loss se bacha sakta ha to ye bhi app ko aese he loss se bachata ho ga may be ager koi or information ho to zaror share karna plz

yes,trailing stop should be used only in trending markets where the price movements are going in a same direction and not in market where it is ranging because the value of the trailing stop can get triggered easily.and it is never recommended for scalpers to use trailing stop.

yeah this is a very good idea to use trailling stop for getting more profit. you can also use it to take less loss in ours trading, but I did not use it much in my trading so I donnot know much about it, I heard about it so if you think it is good then you can use it.

When we have made profits in any trades it become very much important that we are able to close the deals. If the orders are not booked then time is not far when the profits will be converted into loss as the markets retrace very fast and we get no time to stop them. Using the trailing stop loss is beneficial for us in these times.

I use trailing stop to protect my profits.Because i have not very much experience and if i see a profit of 15-20 pips i do place trailing stop and hope for more pips.

I do see trailing stop-loss would be more useful when we enter into market with swing trading strategies. But I use definite target unlike waiting till market reverse, so I do not go for trailing stop-loss. I strongly believe trailing stop-loss is must in swing trading to protect the gained pips against the trend change.
