Stop loss is a must in trading. It’s not about avoiding losses, but managing them.

Something happened yesterday that made me want to say a few words about the issue of stop loss. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. I have seen many times where the market has hit your stop loss and then moved up or down sharply in the direction you made. Do you have a feeling that if I don’t set a stop loss, I won’t lose money and may even make a profit? I have also seen many market situations where you hold on to the order and liquidate your position immediately. As a result, the market reverses and you make a lot of money. Are you very lucky? What I want to say is, you must bring a stop loss! Because what we are doing is a speculative thing, not a gambling thing! All the money you earn through luck will one day be lost through luck! Of course, it is also a science to bring stop loss and where to place stop loss to reduce friction and consumption.

Although I can't call myself as a professional trader, I always put a stop loss because this way I can control my losses. So I don't see anything wrong with using it.

I'm with you the stop loss are parts of trading but the most important thing is to understand that losses are part of the strategy to win.
at the end the important things is to have a positive balance at the end of the year.
Every time I seen reports without loss I skip the strategy

alxeanderer posted:Yes, placing a stop loss in trading is essential as it helps manage risk and protect your capital. A stop loss order specifies the maximum amount of loss you are willing to tolerate on a trade, automatically closing the position if the price moves against you beyond a certain point. This risk management tool helps prevent significant losses and is a crucial component of any trading strategy.

Gert12 posted:I either invest in Crypto and hold for long time, or just scalp off minor gains in minutes, that way you don't need any SLs. The best thing you do about it is to sit down and keep track of your trades throughout the entire duration, it's seriously troublesome.Ethanishere posted:But if there is so big volatility you may reach stopout in seconds?

I get where you're coming from. It can be frustrating when the market hits your stop loss and then moves in the direction you anticipated. But remember, stop losses are there to protect you from big losses. Without them, you risk significant drawdowns if the market moves against you.
It's a balancing act: finding the right level for your stop loss and managing it to minimize friction. Trust me, sticking to a stop loss can save you from substantial losses in the long run.
