I am increasingly feeling that stop-loss really is a bit like a breakup: dragging it out without acting, pretending to "wait and see," but in fact, you're paying interest every day, and your emotions are also being hijacked. Admitting defeat sounds unpleasant, but clearing out your positions and mindset early on can actually help you sleep better later.
Recently, there's been talk about some regions raising taxes and tightening regulations, then relaxing again. Basically, this has a big impact on deposit and withdrawal expectations, and when volatility hits, it's easier to get caught up in the emotions. Anyway, I just follow my process: first, think clearly if I can handle the worst-case scenario; if not, cut it. No need to tell myself fairy tales... The good thing about being a lone wolf is that no one is forcing me to tough it out.
