My Stop-loss Strategies For Trading! ✂️📉
Using BNB as an example
Managing risk is key in trading. That’s where stop-loss strategies come in—they protect your capital and keep emotions in check. Here are the stop-loss styles I use, explained with BNB!
⸻
1. Fixed Stop Loss 📍
Example: I buy BNB at $300 and decide I’m okay risking $10.
So, I set my stop at $290.
If BNB drops there, I’m out—no thinking, no stress.
Simple but doesn’t consider market movement.
✔️ Good for beginners
⚠️ Can get hit easily in volatile conditions
⸻
2. ATR Stop Loss 📊
ATR = Average True Range (how much price moves daily)
If ATR is $15 and I buy at $300, I’ll set my stop at $285.
ATR adjusts with volatility, so I adjust my stop accordingly.
✔️ Dynamic
✔️ Adapts to current conditions
⚠️ Needs indicator tracking
⸻
3. Trend-Based Stop Loss 📈
Trading an uptrend? Watch the swing lows.
If BNB’s swing low is $295, I’ll place my stop just below it at $294.
Lets the trend breathe, but still protects me if it breaks.
✔️ Great for trend-followers
⚠️ Needs chart analysis
⸻
4. Break-Even Stop Loss ⚖️
I buy BNB at $300. It pumps to $315.
Now I move my stop to $300 (my entry).
Even if the market reverses, I won’t lose—break even!
✔️ Stress-free once price moves
✔️ Locks in safety
⚠️ No gains if you get stopped out early
⸻
5. Trailing Stop Loss 🐾
I buy at $300, price goes to $320.
With a $10 trailing stop, my SL now moves to $310.
If BNB hits $330, SL moves to $320.
Profit locks in as the price climbs!
✔️ Ride the trend
✔️ Auto-protects profits
⚠️ Might get stopped on small pullbacks
