What is Forex?
Forex, also known as foreign exchange or
currency trading, is the process of buying
and selling currencies with the aim of making
a profit from the fluctuations in their
exchange rates. The forex market is the
largest and most liquid financial market in
the world, with an average daily turnover of
around $6.6 trillion.
Stop loss - it is an order that a trader can place with their forex broker to automatically
close a position at a predetermined price level in order to limit potential losses. Essentially,
it is a risk management tool that helps traders control their downside risk.
Take profit - it is an order that a trader can place with their forex broker to automatically
close a position at a predetermined price level in order to lock in profits. Essentially, it is a
risk management tool that helps traders maximize their potential gains.
Risk to reward - (RRR) ratio in forex trading is a comparison between the potential risk of
a trade and its potential reward. It is a key concept in risk management and can help
traders make more informed decisions about when to enter or exit a trade. For example, if
a trader enters a trade with a stop loss of 50 pips and a take profit of 100 pips, their risk
to reward ratio is 1:2.
Risk management
Risk management in forex trading is the process of identifying, analyzing, and
mitigating the risks involved in trading currencies. It is a critical aspect of successful
trading, as it helps traders to limit their potential losses and protect their trading
capital.
Safe risk management - in our opinion safe risk management is risking no more than
1%-2% of the account on one trade and never risk more than 10% of the account on all
running positions.
Moving stop loss to entry
Moving the stop loss to the entry price level in trading is a technique used by some
traders to reduce risk exposure in a trade. It involves adjusting the stop loss level to the
same price level as the entry price level, which means that if the trade goes against, you
will not lose any money.
The main reason why traders use this technique is to eliminate their risk exposure while
still maintaining the potential for profit. If the trade continues to move in your favor, you
can still profit from the trade, but if it reverses, you will not lose any money.

Closing part of trade
Partially closing a trade in trading can be important. Closing a portion of a trade can
help to manage risk by reducing the exposure to potential losses. By taking profits on a
portion of the trade, you can lock in gains and reduce the overall risk of the trade.
