How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[zahidrock]

It is all rely on market situation along with margin you might have inside your exchanging accounts. Should you have large margin and then if the indicators moves inappropriate and then there is certainly time for you to cure the idea.

mere hisab se 50 pip hi thik hai stop loss k liye. agar hum wait karnai ka socte hai toh woh loss maximum hi hota rehta hai 50 pip thak thik hai stop loss karna ya usse kam mai hi mai kahuga stop karke nikal jane ka...aur phir koi dusre trade mai profit ka dekna ka.

main bhi ap bat k sath agree karta hn laqin masla yeh hai jab ham 50 pips ko set karte hain to bohat dafa aisa hota hai k market hamari entry ban kar k wapis chali jati hai is lie main to kaho ga k ager ap market watch kar rahe hain to manual close kere

according to me before open any deal you must wait for the market trend and read the indicators signals and also read the forecast after open the deal you can set stop loss at the point of 100 pips i think it is much save

you should not set stop loss at more than you can afford to lose. But while determining stop loss you should consider few other factors as well, first whether risk reward ratio is good when you set stop loss at this level, and secondly is the stop loss you set is meaningful i.e. just below support level for long positions and just above resistance level for short positions.

The best way to define the SL and even the TP for that matter is to use the support and resistance zones so as to define the levels, rather than work wit arbitrary values. However, 30 pips of SL is acceptable at the least.

i think good for safe stop loss is depend on you capital and strategy, if we have huge of capital , no using stop loss is okey, but if movement market out off from our prediction we use cut loss.

I use Stop loss in my own trading here.
I select stop loss 10-20 pips here and get profit.

[100 to 1,000]

the level of stop loss really depend on the trading strategy that the trader use and mostly a trading strategy always have an instruction on where to put the stop loss.
of course, stop loss is never going to prevent us from the loss itself, it is just a tool to prevent us from getting more losses.

Stop loss mainly depend on two thing . Type of trade , is short term or long term and how much you afford to loose.
Analyse resistance and support level and put stop loss.
