An Easy way to calculate take Profit and Stop Loss for day trading:
1. Count an average daily moves in $ for the last 3 Months.
2. for example if stock is moving $5 per day on average in last 90 days and if its above 20 EMA count $5 as your take profit from the opening of candle and 2.5 as a stop loss.
3. Let's say you have checked in middle of the day and out of $5 its already moved $3 then what remain for you to take profit is just $2 from the current price to take your profit.
