Size & stops for training (not advice)
One sitting on the sample you just downloaded. Not a stop distance for a live account.
This sitting
- Symbol. EURUSD
- Chart. H1
- Days. The Free sample in Get market data. It is seven calendar days ending today (UTC): from six days ago through today. Hours with no bar are skipped.
- Leave closed. Indicators. Trade → New Order.
Pull that sample, wait until Status says Ready, then New Training. Stay in Training.
The rule
Write this before Play. Do not change it mid-sitting.
- One size for every training ticket in the sitting. If you change size, the sitting is over.
- Invalidation: the high and the low of the first H1 bar on the chart. If a later bar trades beyond either price, the experiment is over.
- Those two prices are on this chart. This page does not add a pip distance or a percent of an account.
Where it holds
Step forward. While later bars stay inside that first bar’s high and low, the rule is in force. Leave the two prices where you wrote them.
Where it fails
The first later bar that trades above that high or below that low is the stop-out. File → End Training. Do not drag a price closer and call it management. Do not add size.
If the end-of-session review appears, the three lines are about this rule: Went well, Mistakes, Next plan. They are not about whether the software opened.
The button under this page is the next step.

Common mistakes
- Turning the two prices into a live lot or a broker stop. Support will not give you that distance.
- Opening Indicators or Trade → New Order in this sitting.
- Moving the invalidation after the bar has already traded through it.
- Skipping hours that have no bar, then treating the gap as a signal.
