trades ride too far and on thecontrary, you should let the winning ones ride as long aspossible in order to always have a positive balance at the endof the day. The best technique you can use in order to fulfillthis proper winning vs. losing trades positive balance is theuse of Stop Orders. Every trader should trade using stops if hewants to maintain the proper balance in his trades for the day.A Stop Order lets you manage and decide how much money you wantto risk losing if the trade you are in results in a bad trade.So, if you combine this "security" stop with a correct technicalanalysis of your indicators you will always be on the winningside, even if you have a few losing trades.

In short, the proper behavior of a forex trader can be resumedin two main attitudes: Always follow the trends of the marketsand decide accordingly (sell or buy) and always maintain apositive balance of your trades using stop orders in order tocut losses at its maximum.
