How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[yumna]

Different traders follow different policies, styles, strategies. I trade by following the stop loss policy. I always take three or four entries and give 15 pips of take profit and 45 pips stop loss. I think profit will be given a third stop loss. Because I see the market conditions. and even with a stop loss, the trader's account still gets a margin call if the trader uses a large lot size. What's good is a combination of stop loss and money management. If you combine two margin calls away from the trader. Traders use 10% of accounts to open positions and set a 50 pip good stop loss. If trading losses, then only 5% of capital is a loss. If you can trade in this way it will not be easy to get a margin call.

it is a general rule that stop loss must be at least half of the amount of take profit, or in other words, the stop loss and takeprofit ratio must be 1: 2 in the ratio. but this is not a standard rule. what's most important is how you can take it if the worse happens to the stop loss. can you accept it. everything goes back to the basic rules of forex trading, just trade the amount you can afford to release. and in forex trading, different traders choose different pips for stop loss, it depends on the trader strategy which they will use so I always place stop loss 10 to 15 pips and always succeed in my strategy.

If you have good knowledge about analytical forex matters as well as risk and money management then I think a trader must take a 2% risk of a particular trade. But if you have good analytical knowledge then you don't need to use stop loss using profit only. These tips only apply to expert forex traders not for beginners. and Pips stop loss has no limit. It depends on the resistance and support levels. We must use the stop loss neck from support and resistance. If you understand that it is the point to brake and move opposite then you will use this stop loss point + 10 to 20 pips. Every movement returns the opposite. so you can use SL 50 t0 100 pips or your thoughts. Don't use a stop loss of a few pips.

It depends on the trader himself, his decision to set it depends on the balance he has in his account and how much money he can afford to lose but his arrangement under 50 pips is not the right choice in my opinion. but I say it always depends on the merchant and sL must be decided with Support or resistance and they act as a good one to determine. Even the pivot point is also good in determining. So one can place SL based on this value or that is determined like the TP: SL ratio as 2: 1 like that. It depends on the needs of the trader.

yes you really are right. Stopping stoploos randomly by fixing pips has no meaning. This is called gambling. Every step we have in forex must have meaning. When we open a position and when we place TP and SL we need strong reasons. so the best method is to use the support line and hold it as a stop loss. SL must st buy the maximum percentage of risk .. as if someone wants to risk a maximum of 5% of money then it is better to set SL with a situation like 20-40 pips whatever he wants to set but most expert traders will set low. when some trades will trap, it takes a lot of time to recover better to close the trade without a trap.

besides that we can also calculate the risks we dare to spend per OP. for example, we only want our risk to be only 5% and our capital is only $ 100. meaning we risk $ 5 per OP. if we OP with 0.1 lot then we install 50 pips SL. Regarding my ability, it should be better than TP pips. But almost all times I don't use SL if you really trade with 2 hours so it's better to have SL around 60 pips for 4 hours you have to increase it.

I think some where around 20-30 pips. but of course it must be decided according to your MM plan. risking our money to extend a lot is always something stupid. We will make the right place for SL in our strategy. in my opinion, traders cannot use it or can avoid it. If you have a good strategy or if you have good money management then you don't need to use it. Sorry, the stop loss function hunts my money too much and that's why it ignores.

It depends on the support and resistance levels where we have to put a stop loss. Stop losses can occur according to the leverage and volume used by you. Proper analysis and money management is very important to set the right stop loss. SL is actually a good idea to be used to avoid big losses but SL also sometimes backfires, we use SL and when the price has touched the SL movement at that time that makes us regret. What I have done so far is when I continue to play and stay in front of the computer so I don't put my SL when I stay for a long time so I put SL.

It's good for me to open a trade with a profit of 30-60 pips when I trade for one day or less. In the event that a buy position is one week or more, the profit is 100 pips. However, we all have a different mindset about profit on Forex. According to my knowledge, it should be greater than TP pips, but most of the times I don't use Stop loss if we trade with H1 it is better to have STOP loss around 50 pips for H4 we have to increase it.

When I trade I take the losses and take profits at 40pips when taking profit. As for the stop loss I chose at 60pips. real-time I like adventure more but rely on peaceful paths in Forex trading. But after I will bring big capital can be adventurous. This is how my business is on Forex. All friends in this trade have taken my path. So as not to experience pressure when moving the candle. The way I decide on my stopplugs and take profits is to consider support and resistance levels. Fibonacci retracement levels are also useful to do. I have used Pivot Points Resistance several times and support levels too. When I trade with a shorter time frame, this is very helpful.
