The distance depends on the volatility of the currency pair, the higher it is, the greater the indentation, respectively, and for issuing a pending order.
4. Next install a safety stop-loss at the same distance as a pending order, but now from a minimum of a closed candle 2-hour day (from which we set aside Buy Stop).
Usually the price on the market should not return to the stop-loss, but if you knock on the stop-loss, you must set aside an order to buy at the price of the first order again. In most cases, the second order closed with a profit and a good profit, if the order is of course re-opens.

a) closing the deal totally
b) the closing of the transaction, and rearrange the rest to breakeven
c) deal leaves open the next day at night and leave it be a little higher than the maximum 2-day.
d) the opening of the transaction must be closed necessarily maximum at the end of the third day!
6. If you prefer, you can simply use the trailing stop to accompany a trading position (or Universal Standard MT4 Trailing Stop) at 30-50-70 points.
