How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

I would say from 50 to 100****,reason being when you lose small amount,you dont get to have a losing mentality. Its not having a great mind. 50**** is not much. It also gives your trading open trades breathing space.

stop loses depend on how much you have used to trade the market. Isr easier. When you are trading in forex market you should make a good money management strategy. Its when you are managing your trades well then you have a look on your stop losses. Like if you are using 20percent of your money in your account. Its the way you have used your money that dictates how to place a stop loss. I usually use 70-100 stop loss. It works for me.

SL depends on your capital and also on that how much positions and also on size of lot ...and also you should think that how much you can afford to loose ...so if you are opening a small lots and not too many positions, then you can afford to apply SL at 50 pips ...but if you are opening a bigger lot, then you need to apply SL at 30 pips , so that you can reduce your losses...so applying SL is very important at proper place....

not only determine how many pips the right to determine the stop loss, but more importantly is to place a stop loss at what price ...
if we could put a stop loss at the point of support of course it would be better, because it can minimize our losses ...

Not appropriate to set the target in pips rather we should let our profit grow until we see a reversal signal and if we notice reversal there is no queston of letting the trade open even if we are not getting the pips we have set the target for.

I think with good mm and 50 pips accurate nyang system is in fact not a problem. Should we kerjar 50 pips on one pair alone because if the pair might use a lot of risk is greater, if not supported by a strong margin resilience

To set stop loss do not put it by numbering and that can can afford or not. It should be placed on that point where you think if market break this point then it will change his trend and will move against you. That is the right place of putting SL. And if it is not affordable then do not trade for this time and wait for appropriate position.

how many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

Many newbies ask me how many pips is safe for stop loss? I think its all depend on how much you afford to lose and we have to put stop loss by checking resistance and support levels, we should not put stop loss just by numbers.

Share your views...

Yes, i agree with this. The stop loss should be used by newbies. And the place where stop loss is placed is according to your analysis. For example, if you hope the market will move 20pips high. You should enter in correct entry. Then, if you feel the market cross some point and will reach reversal, then place stop loss in that point.

Jab me scalping karta hu tu mera stop loss 30 pips k as pas hota hai aur I think yeh safe bhi hota hai ap ki trades k lyey aur ap ko bachata hai agar market achanak se jhatka mare. Is k ilawa day trading may 50 pips se 80 pips tak ka stop thek rehta hai jab k swing trades me 100 k karib ya phr us se thora ziada.Currency pairs jinhe ap trade kar rahe ho, yeh un ki volatility par bhi depend karta hai.

scalping walo ke liye stop loss aur take profit set karna bahut hi zaruri hota hai kyunki wo log bahut hi kam pip difference ke liye trade karte hai
aur kayi baar to scalpers bahut bade lots trade kar lete hai aur 1-2 lot se hi akfi acha paisa kama lete hai..me to situation ke hisab se trading karta hon jab mujhe lagta hai scalping ki zarurat hai tab karta hon warna long term trading karta hon
