Since a number of dear followers requested more clarification regarding how to set a stop-loss on Binance, I wanted to share this post with a simplified and detailed explanation
✅ How to set a stop-loss (Stop-Limit) on Binance in easy steps
📌 Simple example:
You bought a coin at a price of $100, and you want to protect yourself from a significant loss if the price drops.
You set a stop-loss at $90, meaning if the price reaches $90, you want the app to sell the coin automatically before the price drops further.
📲 How to set a stop-loss on the Binance app or website:
Open the Binance app or log in from the browser.
Go to the trading page (Trade), and choose the pair you hold the coin in (for example: XYZ/USDT).
Select the "Sell" option.
From the order type (Order Type), choose "Stop-Limit".
Now you will see 3 fields to fill:
Stop (the price that triggers the sell order): for example, $90.00.
Limit (the price at which you will sell): for example, $89.50 (a bit lower than the Stop to ensure execution).
Amount (the quantity you want to sell): for example, 100% or part of it.
Press the "Sell" button to execute the order.
⚠️ Important notes to understand the difference:
Stop: the price that automatically triggers the sell order when reached.
Limit: the price at which you actually want to sell, and it is usually a bit lower than Stop to ensure a quick sale.
🛡️ In short:
If the price of the coin drops and reaches $90, the system will start selling the coin at a price close to $89.50, which protects you from larger losses if the price continues to decline$ETH
