🚨 How I Saved 12% (and My Sanity) with a Stop‑Loss 🚨

Couple of weeks ago on Tuesday(as far as an remember) I woke up to a 20% crash in the altcoin I’d been holding since June. My heart sank—until I remembered the stop‑loss I’d set at 5%. Instead of nursing a 20% hole in my account, I only lost 5%, which meant I could reload later without wiping out my balance.

What I learned:

Treat your stop‑loss like insurance. It’s not a sign of weakness to admit you don’t know where the market will go.

Tune it to each coin’s volatility. I use 2% for Bitcoin, 8–10% for smaller tokens, and even 12% for ultra‑high‑beta plays.

Review it after every big move. After that crash, I bumped my stop‑loss to 7% since volatility spiked.

In crypto, preserving capital beats chasing every 20% moonshot. A well‑placed stop‑loss can be the difference between staying in the game and going broke—and it keeps me trading with a clear head.
