Daily range check
A target that needs more movement than the day has left is a hope, not a plan. See how much of an average day the market has used, and the room left for yours.

Today
The room left
An example with typical numbers. Change any box to use your own.
Today has used 50% of an average day. If it ends as an average day, there is about 48.00 (480 pips) of room up from here.
- Today so far
- 3,988.00 to 4,018.00: 30.00 (300 pips) against an average day of 60.00.
- Room both ways
- Up 48.00 if today's low holds; down 42.00 if today's high holds.
An average, not a limit: some days move twice the average and many move less. Take the average daily range from your own chart (an ATR of 14 days on the daily chart is the usual one).
Education only, not investment advice. The answer comes from the numbers you typed in, not from your account or the market. Simulated results are hypothetical and have limits: real trading has slippage, gaps, changing results and emotions. Trading leveraged products can lose money quickly, including all of it. Risk warning
Educational only, not financial advice; trading involves risk.
Targets that fit the day
Markets move a fairly steady amount on most days. When a day has already covered its usual distance, a fresh breakout has less room to run, and a target set far away often needs tomorrow as well. That is no reason to skip the trade, but it is a reason to choose a closer target, a smaller size, or a trade that is happy to stay open overnight.

- When the busy hours are in your time zone: market hours in your time.
Not advice. The answer is arithmetic on the numbers you type, not a view on any market.
