BONUS: How I manage my intraday trades<br />

Where to place your Stop-loss & Profit Target<br />

My Profit Target is 10 pips, and my Stop-loss is 12 pips. I use this setting for all four major pairs<br />

that I trade intraday (EUR/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CAD, USDJPY). The reasons for this settings are:<br />

1. I like to be out of my trades quickly because the longer you have your trade open, the<br />

higher the risk of something unexpected happening. It could be a change of market<br />

sentiment or some other market-moving event like unexpected (or expected) news.<br />

2. Another reason is that even if my trading level happens to be against a strong countertrend<br />

move, a 10 pip correction is much more likely to occur than a 20 pip reaction (which<br />

would basically be the end of that short-term trend). Today’s long on the USD/JPY shows<br />
