📌What is a Stop Loss?
A Stop Loss (SL) is an automatic sell order that is executed when the price of an asset reaches a specific level, known as the stop price. Its purpose is to limit losses in case the market moves against the open position.
📌Types of Stop Loss
There are several types of Stop Loss:
1. Fixed Stop Loss: A fixed stop price is set, for example, 10% below the purchase price.
2. Trailing Stop Loss: The stop price is automatically adjusted based on the movement of the asset price.
3. Trailing Stop Loss: The stop price is adjusted according to the distance between the current price and the highest/highest price reached.
📌How a Stop Loss works
1. A long (buy) position is established on an asset at $100.
2. A Stop Loss is set at $90.
3. If the asset price falls to $90, the sell order is automatically executed.
4. The position is closed with a loss of $10.
📌Advantages of Stop Loss
1. Limit losses.
2. Reduce the risk.
3. Helps maintain discipline in trading.
4. Allows you to establish an acceptable level of risk.
📌Disadvantages of Stop Loss
1. It may lead to unjustified losses if the market recovers quickly.
