I think its depend on your capital your lot size and your strategy of trading how you can afford to loose in market if you have big capital so you can take big chance of SL but if you are tarding with small capital then you should set Stop Loss maximum 20 pips .

I think 30-50 pips are suitable for stop loss. Sometimes market may moves rapidly. So using 10-20 pips is risky. But 50 also has risk but it also helpful for you. You can take more chance to gain profit by using SL.

i don't know.it depend on individual,s study, his account balance, his experience etc..
so we can not generalize the exact pips for setting stop loss..it depends on situation to situation and trader to trader.

for placing SL and TP done after we do the analysis of price movements of the boundaries that we create either static or dynamic .. for SL can also use limit Fibo eg, pivot standardeviation

[riyanaml]

The SL should be decided with supports or theresistances and they act as good one to determines.The pivot points are also good in determining.so one can put Stop Loss based on this or specified values like ratio of TP :SL as 2:1 like that.It depends on traders needs !!

ideally we put how many pips TP and SL?, because I install TP really hard to the touch, but if SL often really into touch.

The good stop loss for me is 50 pips. The market can't easily hit that unless of course I am caught in a big market trend. It is always better to give more allowance for your trades to breath and roam for a little bit of time. However,make sure you account can sustain a 50 pips loss.
