🚨 The Dark Side of Stop-Losses: Why I'm Rethinking My Strategy 🤔
For years, I've relied on stop-losses to protect my trades. But after experiencing repeated liquidations, I started to wonder: *am I losing to the market or to the game?*
💸 The Harsh Reality
- Stop-losses can become targets for market manipulators
- Exchanges profit from liquidations
- Predictable stop-loss levels can make you vulnerable to "stop-hunting"
🔥 My Personal Experience
- Repeatedly, price would dip to my stop-loss level, only to reverse and rocket in the opposite direction
- I realized that my stop-loss wasn't protecting me; it was making me a target
📊 New Strategies
- Ditching visible stop-losses and using mental exits instead
- Reducing position sizes to survive fakeouts
- Trading on spot markets to avoid leverage traps
- Analyzing order books to spot potential liquidity hunts
