#StopLossStrategies
Considerations and Best Practices
• Avoid Arbitrary Levels: Setting stop-losses without analysis can lead to premature exits or excessive losses.
• Account for Market Conditions: In volatile markets, consider wider stop-losses to prevent being stopped out by normal price fluctuations.
• Regularly Review and Adjust: As market conditions and your positions change, reassess your stop-loss levels to ensure they remain appropriate.
• Understand Order Types: Be aware of the differences between stop-loss and stop-limit orders. While stop-loss orders guarantee execution, they may do so at unfavorable prices. Stop-limit orders set a specific price but carry the risk of non-execution if the market moves past the limit price .
