What is Stop-Loss? (explanation)

[joca 33]

I really liked this tutorial, the stop_loss strategy has been explained very well, the truth is that I am very new to trading and I can say that I like it a lot, I do not have such extensive knowledge but I already understand many terms, but this strategy As such with that name I did not know it, I would still like to investigate and have more information about this strategy, it seems quite profitable if it reduces losses, on the other hand it would be very good to get a tutorial that explains how to configure the stop_loss and in the experience of the most experienced, that Exchange would be better.

The stop loss order prevents you from acting emotionally in critical decisions about the stock exchange, and can come to your rescue like a savior angel when you go on vacation or when you cannot follow the shares you have for some reason.😃

It is a tool used in exchanges, which helps us protect ourselves from losses. Now, this element must be moved dynamically with the price, to ensure our profits since it is useless to reach objectives if in the end the price falls back and we have to sell at the price of the initial Stop Loss.

Stop loss is an addition in most platforms of the finest additions that I dealt with because it protects you from a big loss and protects your money from losing a large percentage, but there is an important thing that I would like to tell you about sometimes when you place a sale order that is not executed due to the selling pressure that occurred. Therefore, I advise you to use the coc property to stop the loss because it will set two consecutive sell orders for you with the same quantity that you want, and the sale will be mandatory and ensure no loss

Yes, I have noticed this too, but I noticed for stop loss to be effective, the stop limit and the limit order must have a significant difference for it to work, else, it will not work and the market will decrease and your order not unfilled. Did you noticed this too?

Every trader must master the use of the stop loss in order to avoid a large loss of capital. The stop loss is considered a safety valve for the account because through it you can perform strict capital management for your account and also you will be able to ensure that your account will not be rolled out in the event of a price reflection on you.

Stop loss is really great feature in trading and every exchange provide this feature for their traders, because they don't face huge loss when their traders trade goes their against, because trading is not easy and without this stop loss feature we loss our funds in few hours.

It will be good if all exchanges provide stop loss for traders to use to trade, I will like to see such one yobit too so that can be able to use it to learn more about how to trade. Stop loss will be able to make traders to stop losing while trading. It will be very good way to truly stop loss.

The usage of stop loss is really important because you might really lose a lot of assets if you don't use it! Also, set it correctly, because otherwise it'll be non-sense. I learned the importance of stop loss the hard way! So now I'm saying it all of you so that you don't also suffer the same fate as me.

This option is excellent to avoid being aware of a trade if we are busy with something else, when I set to sell in stop-loss I am calm in thinking that if the currency goes down I will not have big losses or any, so I can do other things while I wait for My order is executed at the price I set to win, in the technological world there are options that make our work easier and this is one of them.
