Stop Loss Strategies: The secret to success in trading is not just about the entry, but the right exit!

Most traders focus on the entry point, but few think smartly about the exit when needed. A stop loss is not a weakness; it's a tool that helps you preserve your capital and live to trade another day.

Most popular stop loss strategies:

1. Fixed Stop Loss

Set a fixed percentage for loss (e.g., 1-2%) of your capital for each trade. Simple and effective for risk management.

2. ATR Stop

Based on the ATR (Average True Range) indicator to determine the stop according to market volatility. Useful during times of high volatility.

3. Trailing Stop

A stop that moves with the price in the direction of the trade. It locks in your profits and reduces your losses if the price retraces contrary to your expectations.

4. Support/Resistance Stop

Place the stop below the nearest support or above the nearest resistance. It respects technical analysis and gives the trade a chance to move.

5. Time-Based Stop

If the trade hasn’t moved within a certain time (e.g., 30 minutes or an hour), you manually close it. A good strategy in scalping.

A heartfelt tip:

The stop loss is not your enemy... it’s your safety belt. Stay disciplined and adhere to it, even if the market looks tempting.
