take-profit value must be larger than stop loss, if not your win rate has to be much higher than loss rate to make money.  for me, win rate and lose rate almost equal so take profit has to be more than 1x.. sometimes take profit too early and price goes up.  so now my rule is 1) price under moving averages use the moving average as resistance to TP, or previous swing lows 2) if price is above the moving averages, use previous swing highs as resistance or check of price flush up vertically too fast. 
Lastly, good to check fair value. can calculate yourself or reference analysts values. Tiger brokers is best because all data is readily available in the App.
