Title: The Lesson of Blood! Not Setting a Stop Loss Means Handing Your Principal to the Market!
Just now, I was handling a fan’s account situation, and it was shocking.
A principal of 35K—because for one trade, they relied on subjective “holding through” without setting a stop loss, the loss on a single trade was as high as 8,000 oil! Now they only have 13K left.
This is the cost of not setting a stop loss! In the trading market, “luck” is the biggest poison.
Many people can’t hold onto the winning trades but stubbornly “dead-hold” the losing ones—that’s the typical retail trader mindset.$BTC $ETH $ZEC
I often emphasize to my brothers:
✅ Bring stop loss and take profit—this is the most basic bottom line of following a trading plan. My approach can guide you into the market, but it can’t replace your ability to control greed and luck. If you make chaotic trades yourself, even the gods can’t save you.
✅ Principal is king. With the market quiet over the weekend, it’s a good time to calm down and reflect. On Monday when the market opens, I’ll provide real-time entry and exit levels—but the prerequisite is that you must strictly manage your position sizing and follow stop-loss discipline!
If you can’t even protect your principal, and you charge into this market with blind optimism, it’s really hard to stand firm for the long run.
Settle down, respect the market, and we’ll fight again next week.
