While it is not foolproof, a combination of these two orders can be very effective in managing and reducing risk while still allowing for the potential to make a profit.

using this combination should be correct because using a stop loss should be more mature

The correct answer is B. A stop loss is more mature than a trade exit. Trading Forex without a stop loss carries additional risk, as it leaves you exposed to more potential losses in the event of a sudden market move. A stop loss, however, can help limit your downside risk by automatically closing out a losing trade.

You can use this stop loss combination well, but indeed you have to be able to regularly use management

I never use a trailing stop because I'm confused about how to use it, I prefer to use a stop loss.

I think, Combining a stop loss order with a trailing stop order is a common practice in forex trading to manage risk and protect profits. A stop loss order is an order placed with a broker to automatically sell a currency pair if it reaches a specified price level, limiting potential losses, while a trailing stop order is an order that adjusts the stop price as the market moves in favor of the trade, thereby "trailing" the price at a set distance.

You can read this article to learn more about trailing stop (because I think you more know about stop loss lol)

Trading stops can be confusing, especially if you're new to trading.

This combination is of course very important for us to use properly because when you can use trading stop losses and trailing stops properly, everything will be more comfortable for you to make profits.

In my opinion, a trailing stop can be used when the profit is more than 100 pips, because if it is less than that then you should just use a stop loss to make it more effective.

I don't think it's suitable to use a trailing stop because sometimes the RR becomes unbalanced, so so far I've just used a stop loss
