Recently, the market isn’t moving… Yet the reason you can aim for +10 pips: “Can you take it every day?”

Recently the market isn’t moving... Yet there’s a reason you can still aim for +10 pips every day: “Can I do this every day?”

【FAQ】Can you really take 10 pips every day? What I’m thinking when the market isn’t moving

This time, I’ll share a realistic answer to this question and a strategy to accumulate more pips during periods of low volatility

Lately, the market hasn’t been moving much...
Days like that have been continuing
In FX, you profit when there is price movement

No matter how good your method is, if volatility is extremely low, extending profits isn’t easy

That’s why I want to answer the common questions this time

“Can you really take 10 pips every day?”


Conclusion: It isn’t guaranteed that you’ll take 10 pips every single day

To answer briefly,

It’s not guaranteed you’ll take 10 pips every day

For example,

・Days with extremely low volatility
・Days when the market is paused waiting for important indicators
・Days with very short trading windows

On such days, you may not reach a total of 10 pips

Especially for working professionals,
you often have limited time to trade after work, after taking a bath, having a meal, and then going to bed

Naturally, the number of opportunities becomes limited

Still, on average, 10 pips is quite realistic

On the other hand, there are days when the market moves a lot

When a trend forms plainly,
when there are multiple entry opportunities,
on such days you can take 10 pips or more without special effort

In other words, you might have a day that only yields 5 pips

Even then,
on another day you might take 15 pips or 20 pips

As a result, on average

Around 10 pips per day is a realistically achievable target


When the market isn’t moving, increase the number of currency pairs

However, low-volatility markets can last for days, weeks even

In such times I think about

“Increase the number of opportunities”

If you’re only watching USD/JPY

* EUR/USD
* AUD/USD
* GBP/USD

and
look at currency pairs with relatively low spreads

Then, naturally,
you’ll have more entry opportunities than when you’re watching only one pair

It’s common that “USD/JPY doesn’t move, but EUR/USD trends nicely”
Increasing the number of monitored pairs equals increasing the number of opportunities accordingly

If you trade hard during a stagnant market and rack up needless stop-outs, wouldn’t you rather broaden currency pairs or spend time testing for the next big move?

In such times, a weapon is the “currency-weakness/strength-based trading logic,” but that’s for another occasion


Those who earn focus on the total rather than “every day”

The more stable FX traders actually don’t think in terms of a single day

On days with low volatility,
they accumulate total pips across multiple currency pairs

On days with high volatility, they lock in more profits than usual

In this way, they accumulate profits over a week or a month


Finally

“I didn’t take 10 pips today...”
There’s no need to feel down about it.

The market has days it moves and days it doesn’t

What matters isn’t forcing the same profit every day, but
steadily accumulating profits in situations with a favorable expectation

And on days when the market moves, make sure to grab the opportunity

That accumulation is what I believe eventually makes a big difference


Summary: two paths according to volatility
Rather than clinging to the fixed idea of “always 10 pips per day,” adapt flexibly to market conditions to stay profitable in the long run

On days with [low] volatility
Monitor multiple currency pairs and pick up the small opportunities to accumulate total pips

On days with [high] volatility
Ride the trend strongly on favorable pairs and build even more profits as if saving up

Both approaches are fully effective and sensible strategies



The methods I currently practice are here
(I’ve also added a currency strength filter here)
★★Steady trading of +10 pips per day (2–5 hours per day)★★
I’ve taken two methods taught by a genuine pro trader (my mentor) and combined the best parts,
and added a logic that clarifies entry points
Trading not to “win” but to “earn”
Trade with the expectation of going long where the upside probability is high
Thinking like an overseas pro trader (legendary investors Buffett and Soros)
