My question is do you consider closing your trade if those orders didn't trigger for some time?
This is a good question and newbie trader would benefit from this thread because it is really a practical trading question. You can't understand this question or attempt to answer if you have not been trading, as a trader you will be locked in between this kind of decision.
So my answer is yes. I do exit an order that is taking unnecessary time to trigger because with experience sometimes you lose after waiting that long.
Because for example, the trade you opened becomes sideways or stable, and no pumps or dumps happened that triggered your orders, so for some time, your trade is still open.
Experience have taught me this that when market is sideways for long, it could be a result of market price and indecision going on at your back (yes lol because you are not there present only through the trading channel or platform, exchange), so it is better to stay out and allow whatever that wants to hit the market to do just that while your capital still stays safe at the time. With experience too I have learnt that it is better to have your money than to unnecessarily lose it and there is always another opportunity for profit. Another lesson to this, when the market seem quiet or sideways for long, something is about to hit the market either a new trend will be formed.
