I'm new to all this but I have a short on at 5753. Is it a good idea to leave it over the weekend or shall I just take the small loss while I can. obviously I'm not asking for a crystal ball but what's the hunch?
you needed to have that clear in your head before youenyerrd the trade. 70% of margin traders lose money
If you can cover up to 6150, without any issues even if it didn’t come back down, then I would leave the short open and at a suitable point below your entry, edit the position and put on a guaranteed stop loss so you cannot lose money. Otherwise, I would close it.
Jamie- work out how much you can afford/want to lose- then set your stop/loss accordingly
