Risk management tip: Once your trade moves into profit territory, shift that stoploss to breakeven. Why? It locks in your safety net while keeping upside potential alive. No more wondering if you'll take a loss on a winning position. You either break even or gain—that's the trade-off. Works across spot, futures, any market really. The key is discipline: set it and don't second-guess yourself when volatility kicks in. Small adjustment, big peace of mind.

Sounds good, but I think most people still can't do that... It's easy to say.

To be honest, I'm tired of the term "breakeven stop-loss." The key is still to have discipline... but indeed, many people can't do it.

Breakeven stop-loss sounds great, but a rebound can break it easily. The real challenge is not to touch it.

Breakeven stop-loss sounds good, but I can never make up my mind. Can I really hold on?

Breakeven stop-loss is a well-known tactic; the key is execution, which most people cannot achieve.

Breakeven stop-loss sounds good, but when volatility hits, can you really hold steady? I personally often fail to stick to it.

Moving the stop-loss to the cost price, I've been using this trick for a long time. The key is really about mindset.

Breakeven stop-loss sounds good, but the real challenge is not to manually close the position...
