closing at different positions


Rudy

Question

Hi

Can anyone tell me if I can close a position twice at 2 different levels?

Eg: I  have 20 contracts in forex.

I want to set my limits to take profit 40 pips away for just 10 contacts and then close the rest off say 25 pips later.

Regards

Rudy

    • Today is NFP, a lot of volatility is expected. Todays close (weekly close) will determine the short term future. Support stands at 2K.
    • There were some muted gains in Asia overnight, but the main mover was the Nikkei, which slumped another 1.7% as the yen continued to strengthen and Japanese GDP was revised down. Hints from the Bank of Japan this week have prompted a flight of short sellers from the yen on expectations that 2024 will finally see some policy tightening in Japan, just as other central banks contemplate cutting rates. Meanwhile, oil clawed back some losses as Russia and Saudi Arabia called on other OPEC+ members to adhere to the recently-agreed production cuts, but both Brent and WTI are still down heavily for the week. US non-farm payrolls are the main event of the day, with the focus on whether job growth is slowing or remaining resilient.
