Why is SL sacred?

— A stop-loss is insurance against emotions. Even if you are confident in a trade, the market can behave irrationally.

— Example: You bought ETH on a breakout, but BTC unexpectedly dropped due to news. SL will save you from disaster.

Conclusion:

You can only change your mind based on new data, not because you were "scared". And SL is like a seatbelt: it's better to stop early than to crash.
