#止损策略

Stop-loss strategies are a very important part of trading, used to control losses and prevent emotional trading. Depending on your trading style (such as short-term, long-term, contracts, spot), stop-loss strategies will vary. Here are several common stop-loss strategies:

1. Fixed Percentage Stop-Loss

Definition: Each trade's loss does not exceed a certain percentage of the total account funds (e.g., 1%-2%).

Advantages: Simple and clear, can effectively control risk.

Example: If you have a capital of 10,000 yuan, the maximum loss per trade does not exceed 1%, meaning the most you can lose each time is 100 yuan.

2. Technical Stop-Loss

Definition: Set the stop-loss level based on candlesticks, trend lines, support/resistance levels, etc.

Common Uses:

Stop-loss when breaking important support levels

Stop-loss when breaking previous lows/highs

Stop-loss after a failure to break through

3. Trailing Stop-Loss

Definition: When the price moves favorably, the stop-loss point also moves up (or down) accordingly.

Benefits: Locks in profits while leaving room for further increases (or decreases).

Example: If Bitcoin rises by 5%, you move the stop-loss point above your cost price to lock in profits.

4. Time Stop-Loss

Definition: If the price does not reach the expected target within a certain time, exit with a stop-loss.

Suitable for: Short-term or event-driven trading.

Example: After a market announcement, you go long, and if it does not rise within 30 minutes, you close the position.

5. Psychological Stop-Loss (Discipline Stop-Loss)

Definition: No specific point is set, but once the market goes against the expected logic, you immediately stop-loss.

Premise: You must be very clear about your trading logic and timely judge that “if you are wrong, you must admit it.”
