**💡 The Harsh Math of Losses Every Trader Must Understand**
New traders often think: *"If I'm losing, just wait—the market will recover."*
**But the numbers tell a different story:**
- **Lose 50%?** You need a **100% gain** just to break even.
- **Lose 90%?** You’ll need a **900% return** to recover.
- **Question:** How likely is a 900% rebound? **Almost never.** ❌
### **🛡️ Why Professionals Always Use Stop Loss**
1. **Protects your capital** from catastrophic drawdowns.
2. **Prevents emotional paralysis**—no "hopium" trades.
3. **Lets you live to trade another day** (the #1 rule).
### **✅ How to Trade Smarter**
- **📊 Backtest rigorously**—know your strategy’s limits.
- **🔍 Track drawdowns**—if losses exceed 5-10%, reassess.
- **🧠 Set stop losses**—**always.** No exceptions.
