    No, almost never use guaranteed stops. I have never had a major problem in 12 years. I won’t however carry a large position over the weekend or near very important news. I need to have a system that wins lots of pips on just moderate size trades which I do. Trading .2 to .5 size trades is enough to made $6 k a month. I do trade baskets with 5 trades up to 1 lot size on great trends. When I do trade up to 3 lots ( rare ), it’s on M5 for very short trades. No one really needs to trade over .5 lot if they trade with multiple positions where you build a large position safety. Money is made by adding to winning positions, going all out with one large trade is just stupid.
