A blow-up often starts with a heavy position. When the importance of stop loss is ignored during a heavy position operation, or the stop loss protection is withdrawn after a heavy loss, the investor may be driven by a strong desire to recover the investment and increase the position against the market trend. Under the influence of fear and impatience, these increases in position often occur on the left side of the price chart, and the market does not reverse as expected, but instead exacerbates the loss.

With repeated counter-trend operations, investors' positions become heavier and losses continue to accumulate. This pressure may cause anxiety and sleepless nights. In the end, in despair, they may face the end of a blow-up.
