Though there are no set rules or guarantees, I think its prudent to leave your stop a few pips below the nearest support such as the last structural pivot, even when trailing stops. Although I dont use the same ideology when it comes to taking profits (I simply take profits to lock in cash), I do think its necessary to do so when setting stops. If you want to leave stops at entry levels (i.e not below support), you might as well just take full profits there and then (I do that- regretfully recently!) as market could easily hit your arbitrary stop.if id moved my stop to b/e instead of + 10 as the rules stated id be another 40m pips up. No real explanation why i did this but OLD Ma Flasheart is fuming
