the recent swing low this way if the price suddenly drops your losses are limited now for the exciting part taking profits set your profit Target at two times the risk you're taking for example if your stop loss is $100 away from your entry price your take-profit target should be $200 away from it simple right let's look at at another example to understand this strategy better as you can see here the Buy Signal has been given by the trend indicator and a blue line has formed on the chart shortly after the momentum indicator has created a
green column signaling bullish momentum in the market enter the trade based on these signals we execute the trade set the stop loss place the stop loss at the recent market price low this safeguards your position in case the market moves against you target profit and managing stop loss our Target profit will be set at two times the risk so if your stop loss is $100 away from your entry your profit Target should be $200 away now to further protect our trade we will gradually Trail our stop- loss along the Blue Line This minimizes our chances
of incurring losses and helps us lock in profits as the trade moves in our favor by trailing the stop loss we ensure that we capture profits gradually while reducing the risk of a big loss this approach helps in maximizing gains and managing risks effectively [Music] [Music] when using this indicator on shorttime frames like 1 or 5 minutes your stop losses will be very tight this can be problematic with broker offer offering High spreads as even small price movements could trigger your stop- loss prematurely to avoid this issue I highly recommend using IC markets they offer
