How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[netra]

Yeah u r right ..its all depend on situation....but usually i put stop loss on basis of pivot point,....due to accuracy and scientific base i can trust pivot point....

[sachin]

scalping is short term trading..and scalping dont need much analysis so SL is needed to be set,,,and i usually trade scalping style and i set 15-25 pip in every trade....

i think its all based on the our strategy...we shud select pips based on our technical analysis and the our take profit position...so its safe to our account balance

I think, 50 pips is a fair distance to find out that the predictions that we are doing it wrong. I always use a 1:1 ratio, meaning that 50 pips stop loss, take profit 50 pips. and do not forget, always use a trailing stop.

Stop loss is depend your account balance and how much you effort the loss. But i think stop loss is a unfortunate things because you open a trade by using specific strategy and analysis and you also except profit from this trade. So you give the stop loss because the market will not go this range and you also making stop loss by using pivot points, support and Resistance.

I may also agree with you that, stop loss depneds on what trades or what types of trade you doing , it can be less to more, so it is tough to tell the stop loss at just once, so dear friend it will allow you how the trades is begun

Mere hisabse ye aapki capital ki upar nirvar karta hay. agaar aap long term trade karte hay tab aapki SL apki plan ke anusar set karna parta hay or aagar aap short term karte hay tab SL mere hisabse kam set karna parta hay or ye 50 pipe behtar hoga.

First, we study market currencies or metals or stocks to determine the stop loss is different stop loss from currency to currency, for example Euro dollars as possible determine the stop loss 50 points, while the Australian dollar 30 points, but metals such as gold determine the stop loss $ 10, silver half dollars by moving currencies and metals

Every trader needs to trade in their risk and reward ratio and I think the stop loss should be placed according to the same. I trade in the ratio of 3:1 which means if I trade for the profits of 60 pips then I place my stop loss at 20 pips .

mein to apne trading aur avaialble equity ke hisab se mein apna stop loss chhoose karta hoon.basically mein scalper hone ki wajah se mein jaldi hi position close kar deta hoon so mein kabhi kabhar sl bhi nahi rakhta

Even with stop loss, account of trader still get margin call if trader use big lot size. What is good is combine of stop loss and money management. If combine the two the margin call far from trader. Trader use 10% of account to open position and set 50 pip stop loss is good. If trade loss, then only 5% of capital is loss. If can trade this way then will not easily get margin call.
