If you feel comfortable with a stop that is closer to the current price then increase your pip value and normalize risk.
At a minimum you should increase your pip value by 50% prior to taking profit & then re-enter with your last lot size
and complete the cycle.
You do it like this:
$0.20 ---> $0.40 ---> $0.60 ---> $1.20 ---> $1.80
or this:
$0.20 ---> $0.30 ---> $0.60 ---> $0.90 ---> $1.80
So that you can do this:
$0.20
$0.60
$1.80
$5.40
$16.20
$48.60
$145.80/pip

Ok I see what you are saying. You are either going
to need to close your trade to increase pip size or
cut space. Need to manage that SL.
