I need advise from experienced traders I like to place trailing stops on my shorts but can't decide 15 20 30 pips Any advise?
If you allow me to answer, you trading style has nothing to do with stops ... since you sell rallies and hold, i don't think you should consider stop loses at all!

good morning everyone All my shorts in green about 16 of them 3780 is tough nut to crack.To me breaking this truly Euro becomes a Bear trend but as long as 3780 holds I must exit my shorts and sell the rallies again. To my haters which are few here I trade 2 live accounts and have no demo!(Ruffyruff-ruff pay attention)
this is my projection made 5 days ago. it dropped even faster.

I need advise from experienced traders I like to place trailing stops on my shorts but can't decide 15 20 30 pips Any advise?

why use traling stops? I started with 60 lots from 3910 avg.


I just closed out 12 of shorts at an average of 1.3800.


Will add 24 on a rally to 1.3835-1.3850.


If you want th trend I wouldnt start using traling stops until the trend is long in the tooth, this could be just the start.

Looking for a long @1.3763 with tight stop. Would be hit and run affair.

do not forget if dollar bounce out of a wedge, it is going to be a big bounce.

True I never used trailing stops before that's why asking advise.
Just matter of not giving back the profits.I could move stops to fixed SL to protect the profits...which I have done before but often spike takes you out then price continues going south.
I have not solved this issue yet...

In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

I think Vachus is right regarding trailing stops for your style of trading. Just take partials, and load back on rallies.

{quote} every trader has a diff strategy. I don't understand your logic sometimes. you wait for weeks to take a trade. even you would have made excuse in yesterday's fall for not taking a trade. I was in 400 pips loss on 5 kiwi shorts and closed all of them in 600 pips profit. so its all about how much balls u have.
What are you talking about ?

What excuse?

I'm a big bear, the more it falls the better i feel

Trading the way you trade is not for me. How much you lost for this 400 pips DD then ? How much % of your account? I'm curious

I have the same problem, the way around it for me was to consider 'time' as the trailing stop...
