What determines whether you can make money is not the win rate, but whether you can stabilize your losses.
In a mature trading system, losses are never the problem; uncontrollable losses are the risk itself.
Professional traders can maintain their rhythm, not because their win rates are high, but because they understand that stop-loss is a cost, not a failure.
What affects emotions is not the stop-loss, but improper position management.
Once a position is held, subjective bias can occur, so key decisions must be set before opening a position, and only execution should be done after holding.
Four principles of trading:
Clarify the basis for opening a position (verifiable technical signals)
Plan stop-loss in advance (key structural levels)
Set target take profit (clearly defined range)
Quantify the worst outcome (position matching risk)
Take profit: discipline over greed
Regardless of how strong the trend is, fully open take profits are unprofessional.
Phased realization + retaining the base position is the core of controlling drawdown and extending profit cycles.
Profits that should be collected must be collected; unexpected returns are extra rewards that are not worth being greedy for.
