How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[m1ndsrokk]

i thinks the best safest stop loss are between 20 - 30 pips and when it pulled that meaning the trend changing will coming so trader must prepare for next scenario in trading in order to confirm the trend changing...never trade if there are no plan B for your position

I think any strategy must have a different calculation to take into account the placement of SL. there are even some systems that do not use SL in the position taken. which is important for a trader is to be completely understand the risk of any decisions they take in trade. because it is with our understanding, we will be able to receive when it had suffered losses.

well based on my understanding it really depence on the lot size you are making use of and also the numbers of pips you know you are ready to lose and risk because as far as forex trading is really concerned you juts don't have to invest into the market the amount you know you can not afford to lose thats what i think

I usually use pips Stop Loss at 2 times the target point that I specify. I think will be able to make a profit again after 2 times the transaction. It makes me more careful and not lose more money and time. But if I do scalping not apply stop loss, I did it manually.

hello trader,
for me personally,i don't exceed 20 pip for stop loss,because i maked a statistic for my indicators that i use usally and i found that any indication come,had a 20 pips as a maximum of stop loss,so no more than20 pips and i use some technics that allows me to not to make more than 10 pips even,so i wish good pips for you and good luck
just have fun until trading

There is no digit of pips that a forex trader can decide that it is safe for forex trading business. We use the risk reward ratio and combine it with a good entry and exit points so that we can succeed in forex markets using only the right and safe stop loss.

counting 3% of my capital depending on the lot size is what i take up as my earning potential and risk and depending on that i make profit which makes good learning and then trade well.. and that is how we make profit

to determine the stop loss so far I have not used a specific formula, this might be due to my lack of good money management. To determine the stop loss I saw first condition price movement, if allowed me to take profit, stop loss much as I used too much, but if not possible to take profit more then I use a small stop loss

normally 4-6% of the capital can be use for safe for stoploss and if the market is very volatile than 10% of the capital can be use for forex trading as a stoploss

if the analysis in the market are good then the big stop loss Is not so good and only the 70 pips stop loss is very good but if the analysis in the market are poor then it is better that our stop loss should be big so that we should have the chance to get some pips
