Very much useful tips you have added here! I mostly appreciate your 2nd point I mean using stop loss trading tool! Because, I have seen many new Forex traders are not interested to use SL trading positions in their trading! I think, trading without stop loss position means, you are taking unlimited risk in your per trade position.
