Trying putting SL a little far. But always use it

Stop-losses are a common risk management tool — but in my experience, they often do more harm than good.

Here’s why I don’t use them:

Too often, I’ve seen my stop-loss get triggered… only to watch the price reverse in my favor *right after* I’m out of the trade. That’s not just frustrating — it’s costly. Instead of relying on a stop-loss, I take a different approach:

🔹 **I only set a take-profit.**
🔹 **I trade small amounts.**
🔹 **And I focus on keeping calm, not chasing excitement.**

Let me give you an example.

Say I have \$1000. I enter a short position with just \$100. Even if the market moves against me, it would take a 10x price surge to liquidate that \$100. A small drawdown of 2–3% is manageable — especially if the market is already overbought.

So why use a stop-loss that might cut me out of a trade *too early*?

👉 Trading with small amounts and patience helps reduce risk *without* relying on automatic exits.
👉 If you’re trading for adrenaline, maybe a casino is a better fit — the odds might even be better!
👉 In real trading, you need calm, clarity, and discipline — not panic-triggered exits.

Also, from my experience, **technical analysis doesn’t always work**. Markets can be irrational. Sentiment can flip. Indicators can mislead. That’s why risk control, not just charts, should guide your strategy.
