I do not trade on hope, but I do make mistakes. let's see how this trade turns. My stop at 1.3015. no profit target though.
Sry if not explained better. I hope that others trade by that rule also meaning that they do not lose more than they win

I'm also intrady. But have had some trades for a couple of days. Largest profit was +340pips.But that's just 1 gem out of other trades. I prefer taking out 60-120 pip profits.

what is right is wright
I have seen Shiko s open trades.

in total ( more then one instrument ) > 2000 pips > 3000 pips.

but ofcourse loss & win corolated.

it is all about how you take it.

from my point of view he has one issue to fix.

he aim too much.
& sometimes loose the profit exit BE.

greedy man

he wants all pips for himself.
this makes him loose some portion of it.

I want to know how much % he risks per trade too? In my opinion big targets should have wider SL too let the market move.

sure
you have to make calculations regarding to your account size & RR ( Risk Reward ) ratio.

10 pips or 1000 pips all same.

the only thing make it different is cost.

you pay same cost for 10 pip trade & 1000 pip trade

whe you trade 10 pip trade with profit you pay 2 pip cost ( spread and/or comission )

net
10-2 = 8 pips cost is % 20

for
1000 pips
1000-2 = 998 cost is %0.2
