When I started, I thought stop-losses were enough. Now, I see risk management is more about how I set up the trade before I enter, small size, a clear plan, and knowing when I’m wrong.
If the market turns, I either let the stop hit or cut it manually if it feels off. No revenge trades, no panic adds.
For me, it’s not about never losing, it’s about keeping losses small so I’m ready for the next setup. That’s real risk management.
