How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

It's more important to you that you must place a stop loss at the appropriate level so you can not hit stop loss immediately and you can benefit from that trade. Just go for the chart and get the main support and resistance level in that place you can place the stop loss. , it is good enough to make a decision to place a stop loss before entering the position so you do not have to incur any losses from that position. Stop losses should be placed on strong resistance if my positions are sold and on support if a buy position.

I think 40 pips is more desirable for any pair to avoid getting big reduction , but this also relies on the the amount of cash you will use the 40 pips is correct for at least 100$ you use , and as increasing the amount of cash try to increase your stop loss

It's totally depends on my target profit. For example, if my trade is EUR/USD with daily chart and my target is 100 pips profit then i set my stop loss for 50 pips. If any trader do scalping with small time frame then 15-25 pips profit is enough. We should set a reasonable pips for stop loss according to our capital and lot size.

I strongly works on stop loss to use on my trade be into safe level i prefer to maintain my stop losses in between 20-30 pips everytime. Every traders to learn about it when they start to manage risks. We should be practice more to learn about stop losses on every-level .

Stop loss basically apko last swing point py lagana chaiye aur reward ratio 1:1 ya 1:2 mil raha hotu trade lagani chaiye warna aisa kabhi na karien keh thory sy profit ke liye aap bahut sa stop loss laga dein yeh ghalat hoga apki total investment ka 2 percent hona chaiye stop loss yeni ke agar aapki investment 100 rupees hai tu stop loss just 2 rupess ka lagain aur take profit 2 ya 4 rupees ka rakhien

Yes dear you are right,its completely depend on your capital or balance that How manay risk you can face on you balance. Some traders have good amount and they can afford big losses and can earn good profits. So,,,Look at your balnace then set your Sl position after calculation.

The number of pips can not be fixed for any trade. It really depends on your trading style and your capital,
your limit to handle loss. If you are a scalper with minimum deposit then you should set a tight stop loss
and if you are a swing trader with a large deposit then you can have a big stop loss.
But the question you ask can not be answered with a fixed number of pips.

About once a week I receive an email from an aspiring Forex trader telling me that part of their trading plan is collecting a consistent 10-20 pips a day from the market. Or they might just ask me flat out for a strategy that only makes 10-20 pips a day. There is a glaring problem in thinking of trading in this way.
