šØ The Law of Large Losses ā A Lesson Every Trader MUST Learnā¼ļø
Hereās the harsh truth most traders ignore:
The deeper the loss, the harder the recovery. Letās break it down:
Loss vs. Required Gain to Break Even:
⢠Lose 10%? You only need +11% to recover.
⢠Lose 20%? Now you need +25% to break even.
⢠Lose 50%? Youāll need a +100% comeback.
⢠Lose 80%? You must gain a massive +400% just to recover!
Thatās the brutal math of compounding losses. And it teaches us one critical principle:
Protecting your capital is more important than chasing quick gains.
Smart traders donāt focus only on winning big ā they focus on losing small.
Hereās how you do that:
ā Use stop-losses to cut losers early
ā Avoid over-leveraging ā it magnifies both gains and losses
ā Position sizing is key ā never risk more than you can afford to lose
ā Donāt trade what you donāt understand ā learn first, trade second
Survival is the strategy.
The traders who win in the long run are the ones who can weather any market ā bull or bear.
Because in this game, capital is oxygen. Run out, and itās over. Stay in, and opportunity always comes again.
Protect your downside ā thatās the only way to earn the upside.
Make that your golden rule.
