Many traders overlook risk management—and that's precisely why they end up in the red. Ignoring position sizing, stop-loss placement, or portfolio allocation might feel fine during bull runs, but one bad move wipes everything out. Profitability isn't about landing the perfect trade; it's about surviving long enough to compound your wins while keeping losses in check.

Been liquidated again, huh? You're so right... I am the living example of what not to do. During the bull run, I didn't implement any risk control, and as a result, a black swan event wiped me out completely, losing everything.

Alright, to put it simply, risk management is really something you can't skip. How many people have been knocked back to their original state by a market wave?

That's so true. Stop-loss is really the line between life and death in trading. Not many people can actually execute it properly.
