Guys, let me explain something that has saved my wallet more than once: the break-even point in trading. Basically, it's the move you make when the market is on your side and you want to protect what you've earned so far. Here's how it works: when the price moves in your favor and you start to see some profit, you move your Stop Loss from the initial level up to the entry price (or just above). This way, even if the trade goes wrong, you don't lose anything. It's like telling the market: okay, at least you don't take away what I had before entering. The concept of break-even trading is simple but brilliant. Imagine entering a long position at 50k on BTC. The price rises to 52k and you move the SL from 48k to 50k (your entry point). If the price drops, you exit at break-even. If it continues to rise, you've locked in the initial profits. I saw a visual example with the initial Stop Loss position on the left and the adjusted break-even on the right: the difference is exactly this protection you give yourself. It's not a complicated strategy, but one that separates those who know how to manage risk from those who leave everything to chance. Especially in times like these where the market is volatile, with MicroStrategy continuing to buy BTC and pullbacks arriving suddenly. Try implementing it: it will change the way you trade.
