🚨 STOP LOSSES AREN'T OPTIONAL. THEY'RE SURVIVAL. 🚨
I had a friend who thought trailing stop losses were for amateurs. He treated futures like a casino – huge leverage, no protection, chasing unrealistic targets. He’d be up $1,000 on a trade, bragging about the “final target,” and I’d tell him, “Lock in your profit NOW!” He wouldn’t listen.
Then the inevitable happened. A whale moved the market, a violent spike, and poof – $1,000 gone. Liquidated. Not because his trade idea was wrong, but because he refused to protect his gains. A trailing stop loss would have saved him.
This isn’t about being right; it’s about staying in the game long enough to win consistently. $BTC, $BNB, $SOL – it doesn’t matter what you trade. Crypto markets are brutal. Sudden wicks happen. Protect your capital!
Here’s how to use a trailing stop loss:
Option A: Percentage Trail – Set it at 1.5%-3% and let it follow your profit.
Option B: Structure Trail – For pros, move your stop based on key support/resistance levels.
Option C: TP-Based Trail – Move your stop to break-even after TP1, then into profit after TP2.
Plus, remember these rules:
✅ Risk only 1-2% per trade.
✅ Scale out profits at key targets.
✅ Avoid max leverage on volatile assets.
Don't be the trader who loses it all chasing a dream. Protect your wins. Every. Single. Time. 🚀
