METHODS FOR SETTING STOP LOSS. PART 2.We continue to study! Moving Average method When choosing this type of stop loss setting, the moving average indicator is used. The moving averages indicator has long been known in the forex market and many traders use it in their trading, since trading on this indicator is simple and reliable enough. The strategy of setting a stop loss on the moving average indicator is very simple: We need to wait for the price to rebound from the long-term average and put a stop below the indicator line, or above it, if we are talking about a rebound down (short). Fibonacci Levels In addition to the moving average indicator, Fibonacci levels can help you with setting a stop loss. These two methods are somewhat similar and both are quite easy to use. All you have to do is first measure the market phase and wait for the rebound from the Fibonacci levels. After rebounding and opening a position in the appropriate direction, set a stop loss below or above the 78.6 level. The simplicity of these methods lies in clear rules, it is difficult to get confused in them, so these methods are effective. Trailing Stop A trailing stop is a stop loss that follows the price by a certain percentage, points, or dollar amount when the price moves in your direction. Thanks to the trailing stop, the risk will decrease, protecting your profit and preventing a profitable position from turning into a negative one. Usually a trailing stop is set when the price has already moved in the direction we need and in order not to lose profit, we set a trailing stop. But be careful, do not place your stop too close to the price, do not forget about corrections, give the price room to accelerate. High/Low Method This method is most often used by swing traders. The essence of the method is that the stop is placed behind the minimum/maximum of a pre-selected day. In addition, the stop can move if the price shows a new high/low the next day. This method is considered not the best, but it exists, and you should know about it. Be careful when using. Conclusion There are many ways to set stop losses, but which one to choose? As is often the case in trading, you should choose the method that suits you, your character and your strategy. Do not forget that excessive stop-loss setting can lead to premature closing of a position. Frequent repetition of this error can lead to the loss of all capital. Stop loss should not be set at any point you like on the chart, it should be set according to the method and logic of price movement. Do not forget about volatility, which can knock you out of position, and then turn around in the direction you need. In addition, it is not necessary to set the stop loss clearly at the support/resistance level. The price often passes these levels and returns back. Don't forget about it. Setting a stop loss in each position is an important rule. This should become your habit. You should know before opening where you will put your stop loss. Do not forget about the rules, follow them and then you will succeed. Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩

AVAX/USDT starting to look bullish. Time to long? In the chart I am using the Supertrend Ninja indicator, which is a trend-following indicator. When the background of the candlestick closes green with an upwards pointing pink arrow. It indicates a possible bullish (up)trend. I want to see more confirmation of this possible trend before making an entry. To enter a trade placing an order a few ticks above the candle high would be sensible. The idea behind this, is that we only want to enter a trade when it has shown a trend continuation. The Supertrend Ninja indicator gave only 6 bullish signals for the 2 day chart in 2021. And it's forming its 7th today. It still has over more than 1 day and 7 hours before candle close. Is AVAX gonna be making a new ATH? I'll be watching AVAX like a hawk.

METHODS FOR SETTING STOP LOSS. PART 1.The market is volatile and very unpredictable, it is impossible to constantly correctly guess the future direction of the market, and in order not to lose everything in one transaction, a stop loss was invented. Stop loss, like the trend, is our friend. Without a stop-loss strategy, there can be no profitable trading strategy. The ability to correctly find the stop loss zones will help each trader to avoid unnecessary losses and not to exit the position ahead of time. Let's look at these strategies. Methods for setting Stop Loss PERCENTAGE METHOD The interest method is a method in which the stop will be equal to a percentage of the capital, depending on your risk management. At the same time, a large number of professionals recommend not to risk 1-2% of the capital in one transaction. And this method is very popular because of its simplicity and ease of calculations. For example, if your capital is $ 10,000, and the risk management in each transaction is 1%, then the stop loss will be $ 100, everything is very simple. CHART STOP This method is based on placing a stop loss behind the support and resistance levels. After several bounces from the levels, you can set a stop loss above the resistance or below the support, because if the price breaks through these levels, then potentially the deal can go strongly against you. Such levels will be our protection, because it will be very difficult for the price to break through strong levels, but even if there is a breakout, we will be protected by a stop loss. TIME STOP Another method of setting a stop loss is a method based on time parameters. This method will be of interest to those who do not want to leave their deals overnight or want deals to close at the end of the week and not remain open on weekends. Everyone knows about the uncertainty that arises on weekends. At this time, it is impossible to close a position, and the news can be dangerous and you can suffer big losses at the opening of a new trading week, in order to avoid all this, this method was invented. VOLATILITY STOP Each currency pair has its own volatility value. Some couples walk fast and a lot, some walk less. If a trader knows the average daily range of a particular pair, then he can set his stop loss slightly above this value so that the position is not closed prematurely due to market noise. For example, if we imagine that GBP/USD has an average daily movement range of 100 points, then setting a stop loss by 20 points is likely to lead to premature closing of the position. But, if a trader puts a stop above the daily range, you can thereby protect yourself from accidental price spikes. This method forces you to place large stop-losses, thereby giving you space to work so that the price is not closed prematurely. Conclusion Setting a stop loss is a vital condition for any trading strategy. Without a stop loss, you will inevitably lose capital. In the next part, we will look at other methods of setting a stop loss. Good luck to everyone! Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments.

How To Calculate Risk/Reward To Trade & Invest In Crypto MarketHi everyone: Today I want to make this educational video on how to calculate your risk/reward in trading and investing in the cryptocurrency market. Many newcomers in the industry are not aware of the importance of risk management. So today let's give out different examples of them on how to properly calculate the $, %, and setting the SL/TP. This video is intended to help traders and investors to understand how to calculate the amount to risk per trade, or per investment purpose. I will give different examples of going long and short in trading, as well as buying coins for the purpose of investment. Doesn't matter what crypto broker exchange you use, this calculation/formula will work, you will just need to do some simple math to get to the right numbers. Example 1: Want to go long on BTC in a trade Scenario: Trading Account $12,000 Risk 1% of your trading account Want to go long on BTC when price hits $70,000 You want the Stop Loss @$66,000, and a TP @ $80,000 Calculation: Calculate your 1% of the trading account: $12,000 Account x 0.01 $120 per trade Divide the $ you willing to risk to the SL amount $120 / $4000 = 0.03 Set your entry order or market order for 0.03 BTC @ $70,000 price 0.03 x $70,000 = $2,100 (This is the amount you will need in your trading account to execute this position. If you have leverage then its less $ needed) Set your SL at $66,000 If price hits your SL, your order would be 0.03 BTC x $66,000 = $1,980 $2,100 - 1,980 = $120 = 1% of your account Set your TP at $80,000 If price hits your TP, your order would be 0.03 BTC x $80,000 = $2,400 $2,400 - $2,100 = $300 = 2.5% of your account Example 2: Want to go long on ADA in a trade Scenario: Trading Account $800 Risk 1% of your trading account Want to go long on ADA when price hits $2.30 You want the Stop Loss @1.70 Calculation: Calculate your 1% of the trading account: $800 Account x 0.01 = $8 per trade Divide the $ you willing to risk to the SL $8 / $0.60 = 13.34 Set your entry order or market order for 13.34 ADA @ 2.30 price 13.34 x 2.30 = $30.68 (This is the amount you will need in your trading account to execute this position. If you have leverage then its less $ needed) Set your SL at $1.70 If price hits your SL, your order would be 13.34 ADA x $1.70 = $22.68 $30.68 - $22.68 = $8 = 1% of your account Set your TP at $4.00 If price hits your TP, your order would be 13.34 ADA x $4.00 = $53.36 $53.36 - $30.68 = $22.68 = 2.83% of your account Example 3: Want to go short on TRX in a trade Scenario: Trading Account $54,000 Risk 1.5% of your trading account Want to go short on TRX when price hits $0.11 You want the Stop Loss @ $0.13 Calculation: Calculate your 1.5% of the trading account: $54,000 Account x 0.0150 = $810 per trade Divide the $ you willing to risk to the SL $810 / $0.02 = 40,500 Set your entry order or market order for 40,500 TRX @ 0.11 price 40,500 x 0.11 = $4,455 (This is the amount you will need in your trading account to execute this position. If you have leverage then its less $ needed) Set your SL at $0.13 If price hits your SL, your order would be 40,500 TRX x $0.13 = 5,265 $5265 - $4455 = $810 = 1.5% of your account Set your TP at $0.07 If price hits your TP, your order would be 40,500 TRX x $0.07 = $2,835 $4,455 - $2,835 = $1,620 = 2% of your account Example 4: Want to buy ETH to hold for long term as investment Scenario: Investing Account $20,000 Risk 10% of your investing account Want to buy ETH to hold for long terms Want to enter when price hits $4,900 Calculation: Calculate your 10% of the investing account: $20,000 Account x 0.10 = $2,000 per investment Divide the $ you willing to risk to the price you want to enter $2,000 / $4,900 = 0.4082 Set your entry order or market order for 0.4082 ETH @ $4,900 price 0.4082 x $4,900 = $2000 (This is the amount you will need in your investing account to execute this buy.) You want to lose no more than 25% of your original $2,000 investment. $2,000 x 0.75 = $1,500 $1,500 / 0.4082 = $3,674.67 Set your alert and SL at $3,674.67 If price hits your alert/SL, your order would be 0.4082 ETH x $3,674.679 = $1500 $2,000 - $1500 = $500 = 25% of $2,000 You want to gain about 50% of your original investment before selling. $2,000 x 1.50 = $3,000 $3,000 / 0.4082 = $7,349.34 Set your alert and TP at $7,349.34 If price hits your TP, your order would be 0.4082 ETH x $7,349.34 = 3,000.00 $3,000 - $2,000 = $1,000 = 50% of $2,000 Example 5: Want to buy MATIC to hold for long term as investment Scenario: Investing Account $1,500 Risk 20% of your investing account Want to buy MATIC to hold for long terms Want to enter when price hits $2.25 Calculation: Calculate your 20% of the investing account: $1,500 Account x 0.20 = $300 per investment Divide the $ you willing to risk to the price you want to enter $300 / $2.25 = 133.34 MATIC Set your entry order or market order for 133.34 MATIC @ $2.25 price 133.34 x $2.25 = $300 (This is the amount you will need in your investing account to execute this buy.) You want to lose no more than 50% of your original $300 investment. $300 x 0.50 = $150 $150 / 133.34 = $1.1249 Set your alert and SL at $1.1249 If price hits your alert/SL, your order would be 133.34 MATIC x $1.1249 = $149.99 $300 - $149.99 = $150.01 = 50% of $300 You want to gain about 75% of your original investment before selling. $300 x 1.75 = $525 $525/133.34 = $3.9373 Set your alert and TP at $3.9373 If price hits your TP, your order would be 133.34 MATIC x $3.9373 = $525 525 - $300 = $225 = 75% of $300 Any questions, comments and feedback welcome to let me know.

Chain Link is in hot trendingHi everyone Link has been moving in a ranged accumulation zone for awhile and I assume it has strong chance to move upward soon. it doesn't mean we would have strong upward pressure for now, we may even see a small correction back into our accumulation zone and even test our dynamic support trend line before boost upward and it really depends on BTC action in coming days. but for near term to mid term I can see we will have a good chance for keep moving upward. lets see if you want to get long position just don't forget setting trade based on proper money management.

Gold consoldating higher prior to NFP?OANDA:XAUUSD typically has little to no movement the day before NFP (non-farm payroll) So I wouldn't expect large moves today but I do see a perfect breakout pattern today and the larger timeframes show the momentum towards the bullish side. Also gold has been consistently bouncing between these price ranges with the current range being on the low side. I would recommend finding a good entry then closing out today before NFP because there's usually a stop hunt along with a huge push. Keep your eyes open and as always use a Stop Loss This is the breakout pattern I mean

BTC/USD Binance.US - This is why I do not use stop losses.. I must start by saying that I believe Bitcoin and cryptocurrency investing offers the greatest opportunity for the common man to build wealth to have ever existed in the history of the world. Yet, it is still an endeavor that must be entered into cautiously and with research if one is to be successful. The Daily Chart for BTC/USD on (the pathetic excuse of an exchange) Binance.US, serves as a teachable moment that should not be ignored. This chart demonstrates that if you cannot go to sleep peacefully without having a stop loss in place then you may need to reconsider being in this game. The traditional methods of trading securities that were used in the regulated stock markets of the world and which subsequently made a lot of the famous traders of old very rich, predated high frequency trading and algorithmic trading bots on these mostly unregulated cryptocurrency exchanges. Yet, these outdated methods are currently being peddled and taught by the get-rich-trading-crypto-gurus today as the "secrets to crypto trading profits", despite this being 20th century methods that will cause you to lose your shirt if adhered to when trading crypto. Any endeavor to read and learn about crypto trading will, almost without fail, lead to a regurgitated list of the same old trading clichés. One such example: the so-called number one rule of trading. Always use a stop loss. The number one rule of successful trading is undoubtedly to limit your losses. This may be true, but if you are doing that with a stop loss on an exchange then you are asking to be robbed. Yes, you have to know when to cut your losses and move on, but unfortunately, because of the nature of swimming these dangerous financial waters, the sharks in the crypto space will eat your lunch, steal your crypto at bargain prices and laugh as you weep over what could've been. The order books are open. Anybody with a desire to do so can launch a trading "bot" using an API on most any crypto exchange. If that person or entity happens to have enough capital to clear the buy or sell side of the order books of an exchange, then they are free to do so. Once this is done, your crypto is gone at a bargain price with the classic stop loss shake out. Which is why if I cannot hold it without a stop loss, then I don't need it. If a drop in price doesn't present an opportunity for me to buy more, then I don't need it. If I'm not confident that it will be around in 2-5 years from now, then I don't need it. To limit losses, set a price alert on Tradingview, CoinGecko, or your exchange watchlist. If you are afraid it will drop too much before you can act on it, or if it suffers from a lack of volume and thus has a lack of liquidity, then perhaps it's best to HODL or leave it be. If you don't know what any of this means, then that could be a sign that you may need to do a little more due diligence.

How To Set Stop Losses And Take Profits using EMA StrategyWait for price to break and close below a level. In this example, price closed below support level and turned resistance. Next, wait for price to retest level as new resistance. The retest in this example formed a candlestick that created a wick which protruded through Horizontal Resistance Level, EMA 20 Resistance Level, and Diagonal Trend Resistance Level. For short trade opportunity, set stop loss above EMA 20 Price Level and Rejection Candlestick High Price. Set take profit at previous swing low.
