Hello, I hope your trading week went well.

This is another video in my beginner series and although you probably know this already, I have been asked this question a few times in the past, so I want to be sure that everyone is covered.

The Tutorial

Today's tutorial will show you how to measure how many pips are between two points on a chart, as well as the number of bars/candlesticks.

It's second nature to most traders, but if you are just getting started in trading, this is just one of those things that you have to learn.

If you are just starting out, I hope this helps.

Happy trading!
