EURGBP signal of 03/07 has closed at BE
Hi Levaz,
I've put the 4 signals of 03/07 as pending orders (all limit orders) with TP of 25 and EURGBP closed in 7 minutes at BE. Have removed the TP on the other three orders for now just to see the potential (trading on a demo account for now).
Thanks,
Alex

That is the one drawback of using the trailing stop, and such a tight one.
The normal daily range for this pair is around 50 - 60 pips. We do have days with >100 pips, but that is when there is big news and the news event outcome is rather drastic. Therefore, a 25 pip stop would be very tight.
The benefit for you is that we are now in a slight drawdown of 1 - 3 pips, while you are now safely out. Typically, the trade will turn a profit, as all our trades carry a greater than 80% probability of ending up in a profit.

We closed out for a 40 pip loss, see the benefit of using a trailing stop.
