Lesson 1 — Why Stop Loss Placement Matters

Many traders know they should use a stop loss, but far fewer understand how to place one intelligently. A stop loss is not just a safety feature or a random number. It is one of the clearest expressions of whether a trade idea has actually been thought through. Poor stop placement damages trade quality, expectancy, and emotional stability.
