It's not that you're slow to earn, but rather that you're quick to lose. In the world of investment, stop-loss is more important than making money.

Today, let's discuss a few practical stop-loss strategies, I recommend saving this!

⸻

1️⃣ Fixed Percentage Stop-Loss

The most common and simplest. For example, set each loss to not exceed 5% of the principal.

Example: If the account has 100,000, only allow a loss of 5,000 per trade.

Advantages: Clear and easy to execute.

Disadvantages: Easily shaken out by short-term fluctuations.

2️⃣ Technical Stop-Loss

Stop-loss when breaking key support levels, trendlines, or central structures.

Example: If a coin/stock breaks below MA60, previous lows, or fails to make new highs, just exit.

Suitable for: Friends who can analyze charts and have some technical analysis foundation.

Advantages: Aligns with trend logic.

Disadvantages: Stop-loss points are subjective and require judgment.

⸻

3️⃣ Time Stop-Loss

If the price has been stagnant for too long without rising, switch assets.

Example: If held for 2 weeks with no movement, funds do not wait.

Suitable for: Traders focusing on swing or short-term trades.

Advantages: Increases capital efficiency.

Disadvantages: Easy to miss the “shakeout” before a surge.

⸻

4️⃣ Risk-Reward Ratio Stop-Loss (R-value Rule)

Only enter when potential gains are at least twice the risk.

Example: Prepare to earn 30%, and the maximum loss is 10%; if not met, do not engage.

Advantages: Strong systematic approach, suitable for strategic players.

Disadvantages: Tests ability to pick points.

Conclusion:

Stop-loss is not weakness, but respect for the market. Many people are unwilling to stop-loss, leading them deeper into trouble without the ability to escape. Don't be a trader who is “blind and stubborn”; discipline brings freedom.
