traders sometimes do not put a stop loss in their trading because the trader is afraid to accept a loss, because the stop loss that we install will be touched by the price. However, losing is indeed a risk from the forex business, so our losses can actually be bigger if we don't use stop losses because there are no barriers that will limit our losses.

the function of the stop loss is to limit losses according to the analysis.. so it does not mean that in trading by always placing a stop loss, the capital / balance will be from a margin call. If the placement of a stop loss at random does not match the analysis, the amount of balance/capital that is reduced can be too large and it will be difficult to recover the losses that have occurred.

Besides stop loss can be used to limit losses, stops can also function to secure profits.. usually called trailing stop or stop loss+ so traders can use the stop loss function as needed in trading

If we do not have the determination to determine a clear stop loss, we will of course experience the name MC. And stop loss is not the cause of the loss. The losses we experience when trading occur from mistakes in choosing the decisions taken

Stop-loss cant makes our trades get profit, but stop loss is one great way to manage our risk in every single trade, trading without stop loss for trader sometimes make minds fill anxiety, in trading, I am still often using stop loss to manage the risk, especially when must leaving the chart, stop loss and target profit is a simple trading strategy.

If we trade but do not use stop loss as the restrictions on the risk, our trading will be very risky, and it will make it easier for us to experience enormous losses

Stop loss is part of the limit of losses that we can accept so in my opinion the stop loss is not the source of the loss. it's still minimal so what you get is even profit, even Lost or even Margin call

The use of stop loss is of course very important because market movements are almost unpredictable, when trading is not accompanied by a stop loss, the potential for MC will be very large. Although it is important that the stop loss application must be considered carefully, don't be silly and only rely on guesswork. When our trading method is like that, be prepared to swallow a lot of losses,

There are many traders who blame Stop Loss as the main cause of losses, even though if we don't install it, maybe the market can reverse direction and make us avoid the loss.

Actually, if we are disciplined in applying stop losses, then we will avoid MC for that, it is better if in running our trades we have to prepare stop losses because stop losses can help us to limit losses so that they are not too big. Learning discipline to apply risk management is also important to survive.

stop loss is one of the trading techniques for traders to limit losses when the trader is wrong in analyzing the direction of price movement the stop loss is used so that we don't experience MC in trading. with the intention that the possibility of experiencing loss or MC can be overcome.

If you often use stop loss and are often touched then of course stop loss will also not be effective in making you successful in forex trading.

Trading that does not use stop loss will often suffer large losses or can experience margin calls like my own experience at the new learning trading that does not like to use stop loss instead suffer bigger losses even often experience margin calls because there are no loss limits or limits The risk taken, the old way we have to leave and change get used to ways of trading using stop loss, if we always discipline in limiting the risk then the security of the trading account will remain durable and can be used for the long term.
