There are many cliches, and most people know I have a great disdain for all of them.
Onne is, "You never move your stop." That's a good rule, but never say never (Ouch, another cliche.)
It is possible to get into a trade thinking you are in it for the ST. Sometimes things will change.
Thus, we bring on the EUR/USD. There was already discussion on where my SL is set. That is predicated on me getting out of the trade within 24 hours of entering, and I would use the 15-min to set the stops once the slower time of the day kicks in.
That is now subject to change. I already said 1.3089 is on the radar. The hourly would be too short of a stop if I am riding the trade that far. Therefore the thing to do is use the 4-hour as the stop. The arrows point to where the stop would be as of this writing, and where it would be at 10:30pm IST. Most likely, that is going to be my operative. The exception would be if the TP gets hit. I know there will be a bounce from that area, so I'll reenter after the bounce.
In essence, I have just dispelled the notion that you never move your stops back. Having said that, there still needs to be a methodological approach to moving a stop. If someone is in the habit of moving a stop because they're afraid it will be hit, then I got a message for them, "Never move your stop!!!"
