So what we need to do is the following
- Get the pips number which we are going to use to work out our calculations for the order placement. We do this by taking the current price of the pair and multiply it by 10. In our example the current price of the EURUSD as 1.4700 so we take it and multiple it by 10 (1.4700 x 10 = 14.7) and we get 14 pips. We round all the numbers. So 14 pips will be the number we are going to work with.
- We need to determine the the prices where we will place the pending buy and sell orders. First we take the number of pips we got above and we multiple it by 2 (14 x 2) and we get 28 pips. Now the orders that we are going to place should be 28pips away from the current price. So the pending BUY order will be 1.4700 + 28pips = 1.4728 and our pending SELL order will be at 1.4700 - 28pips = 1.4672
- Now to determine the StopLoss level, the stoploss levels should be 28pips (14pips x 2) from the Opening of the candle we are working with. In our example above, the StopLoss for the Buy order is 1.4707(open) - 28pips = 1.4679 and the StopLoss for the Sell order is 1.4707(open) + 28 pips = 1.4735
- For the Takeprofit, we take the Current price and multiple it by 100, therefore, as per our example, our takeprofit is 1.4700 x 100 = 147 pips.
- To calculate the Trailing Stop value, we use the following formula 28 pips + (14 pips/2) = 35 pips. This is the trailing stop that we are going to use.
As you can see, this system is indeed very easy to understand and apply. It does not take into consideration in which direction the market is going. Whatever the direction the market takes, we are going to make some profit or at least breakeven on our trades. I wish you best of luck on this one.
