How many pips do you think is safe for SL ?

[ritesh]

yes,you are right.SL should be decided with Support or resistance and they act as good one to determine.Even pivot points are also good in determining.so one can put SL based on this or specified values like ratio of TP :SL as 2:1 like that.It depends on traders need.

[girish]

yes, for me many times power went off and i was not able to get connected.And finally when the power came i opened the terminal and i had got MC and my account was destroyed.

[rahul]

no we cant tell any values for SL unless we know the type of trader.
for a scalper no SL is required as it might get triggered easily than TP.

This depends on many things, most notably the daily movement of the currency pair, for example if the EUR / USD daily is 120 points, then we have to calculate the rate of profit / loss, and I prefer the rate of profit / loss 2:1 or 3:1, meaning that the rate of profit to be 80 points and the loss ratio is a maximum of 40 points

Stop-loss-controlled speculative points of support and points of resistance that can be affected by a point loss, I do not gamble much I select always at 25Ppips the last time set at 45pips but when practicing good points and support points of resistance will be the highest of this class. Now requires a market study well so that it can determine the margin of profit and loss.

Stop loss depends on your capital if you have large capital then large stop loss if small capital then small capital. I set my stop loss 2% of my total capital because I don�t want to lose big money from my capital.

I think this is depend on traders own target. but if you trade short term Forex trade then i think 50 pipes are enough to safe for SL but if trader trade for long term trade then condition must be different then traders pipes must be up to 100 pipes.

I agree with that it depends on the liquidity & the market conditions, also to the lot volume you trade with
but while scalping I think it is the most important to make SL as far as possible
in order not to damage your balance as you are trading with very large lot volume

I think it is depend to ratio of your free margin and margin you use as balance to open position. If you type of agresive trader who didn't scare to loss, So the ratio of your stoploss must around 5-6 time to your total amount of money in your account. But if you safe trader your stoploss ratio must above 10-20 than your amount.

[ritesh]

I don't think the value of the capital works much because you should manage your money & your trades whatever your capital
the condition here is how many **** your account can withstand
so you should know the ideal value of pip you will risk with
& then upon the pair volatility you can sit your position
