Bouncing pips was a nice thread and you don'y lie on your reputation about this one also.
May i know witch MA you are using on your chart and also don't you think that fibs and daily pivot would be a nice hint about TP an SL.

Any calendar indic that would call the news? We still need to listen at news or update a news site to get ACTUAL.
Today I will share with you simple ways to secure your profits & cut losses using this method with the given Indies.
OK so all your Indies give you a signal. You take your position. NOW WHAT!!!! WHERE IS MY STOP?!?!? MY TAKE PROFIT!?!?!?!?!
Well these are questions that only you & your fear & greed can answer. But, I will give you a safe (relatively) way to cut your losses & keep your profits running.
OK. STOPS.
As a general rule you should always use stops. In this method you should place your stop above/below the support/resistance line. The size of your stop will depend on the pair & the time frame. It should also conform to your risk appetite & money management rules.
1st pic below is an example on the GBP/JPY 1 HR.
OK. TAKE PROFITS.
This is 1 of the most debated topic in Forex. Where the hell do I get out? In this method we implement a step method. You should always have a goal in mind but you should also be willing to go beyond it. If for example you are up 20 pips & your goal is 100, stick to it. If the trade looks good then let it go. I almost never close out manually. I follow my trade with stops at certain levels. With this method those levels are the new support/ resistance line created as time goes on. Using this method you will catch the breakouts that happen when price breaks the S&R lines (excluding news times.) So when you get to a certain point you are locking in profits. You can just relax & let it go. 2nd pic below is an example.
Of course these are set & forget settings. If you had a goal of 200 pips you would have hit it. Its all up to you. I try to make it easy & not spend all day watching the charts.
