CANCEL\REPLACE ORDERS IN FOREX

A Cancel/Replace Order is a procedure and not an entry or exit order. By definition it is when the trader cancels an existing open order and replaces it replace it with a new order. A cancel/replace order is primarily a strategy of trading and is predominately used after one has taken a position in the market and wants to stay in the market locking in profit. For example: you buy Swiss at 1.410. Your protective Stop Loss Order is 1.390. The market moves in you direction as projected. You now want to reduce your
potential loss, so you cancel your Stop Order at 1.390 and replace it to 1.410 where you got in. You are now in a trade with no risk. As the market moves further north in your direction, you now want to lock in more profit. You cancel your 1.410 Stop Loss Order and replace it with a new 1.440 Stop Loss Order. You now have locked in 30 Pips in profit. You are in an all-win, no-risk trade. You keep canceling and replacing your Stop until you are finally stopped out.
