#StopLossStrategies
Stop-loss strategies are essential tools for managing risk and protecting your capital in trading. A stop-loss order automatically exits a trade when the price reaches a predetermined level, limiting potential losses. Common strategies include percentage-based stops, where you risk a set percentage of your capital, and support/resistance stops, placed near key market levels. Trailing stops adjust with price movements to lock in profits while minimizing downside. Choosing the right stop-loss depends on your trading style, risk tolerance, and market conditions. Consistent use of stop-losses helps maintain discipline, reduce emotional decisions, and preserve your account over the long term.
