There is no rule. It entirely depends on your trading strategy. If you are a day trader, you have to make your target according to your trading efficiency. You said you closed a trade and market moved for some more pips. Close trade when your strategy permits. If the market moves more, those are not your pips. If you want those pips also, make a better strategy. But the fact is you can't exploit the full benefits everytime.

You're right; there are no strict rules for trading, as it depends on individual strategies. Day traders should set targets based on their trading efficiency. Once you close a trade, any further market movement doesn't belong to you. To capture more pips, focus on refining your strategy. It's essential to accept that you can't always maximize every opportunity.

The number of pips you aim for per day depends on your trading style, strategy, and market conditions. Some traders target 20–50 pips daily, while scalpers may go for less with higher frequency. Focus on consistency and risk management rather than just pip count.
