Risk 100 pips and target 10 pips,is it possible?

[Fmfx]

It is very very possible to trade this way, but the question you need ask is, is it the right way to trade? and I think answer to this is no as it is not all right to risk 100 pips for a little profits of just10 pips, and moreover it is not the right risk and reward ratio.

i think every think is possible. but be careful about risk. so i think its 50-50 is better. if risk 100 pips then profit at least 100 pips.

i think all of traders screw divergent strategies and that's smooth. so if anyone is using that strategy, perhaps it is an mechanism that has been coordinated with a trader's own trait. but if it's my trade, I would put the try of 25pips and place 100pips.

I also feel the same that we should risk only double than our take profit. Although it is high but we need to give some margin to our positions
so that there must not be many orders hitting stop loss quite often.

I expect, too much having to use a block loss 100 pips. envisage if colored prevent loss, it is needed to unstopped trade for 10 nowadays to recall loss. and equal then must ever profit. if you requirement to scalping, meliorate not use a stay loss, if mistaken role retributive cut loss.

yes you can, many scalper did it, sometime scalper didnt use SL, but rather than using cutloss, and their TP sometimes only 1-3 pips, but its wise if you use that risk reward ration only when sideaway or you will floating a lot of minus

This is just the most useless way of trading the financial market, why will that be, so the risk to the reward ratio is now 10:1??? this is indeed a bad idea in trading forex market

of course it's very possible. You can use money management to do it, and estimate the risk is greater than the profit is good, because trading will not necessarily profit.

when l open a position l place my stoploss based on the nearest support or resistant or to high or low of the previous candle.so l dont get a fixed risk.if you will risk 100 pips for 10 pip target at the end you will be looser.the advised risk management rule is at least 1:2.it means when you risk one then your target have to be at least 2.your profit target have to be double than your stoploss.

it is not good way for trading, because your risk reward ratio is very low, about 1/10
this means when you lose only 1 position you have to make profit in 10 positions only to get your balance bank
it can't make you enlarge your capital or make profits
also why you only take 10 pips in every trade while some trades can give you up to 50 pips with the same risk

of course it is possible but it is a wrong decision. you will take the vice verse. you can risk ten pips and your expectation will be that you will earn hundred pips. always take low risk where is a high probability to gain more profit there you can take some high risk.
