Loss itself is not worth beautifying, but I am glad that in front of those accounts that are blazing hot, I have already set my stop-loss levels. This way, even if I ultimately can't hold on, the loss is kept within a controllable range. Sometimes closing a position isn't necessarily a profitable trade; accepting a loss can sometimes feel more like a victory than forcing a position. This mindset is probably the biggest gain after so many years of trading.

Stop-loss is really something that needs to be set in advance; otherwise, you're just waiting to be trapped. I really don't understand those guys who hold on to their positions—it's clear they've broken support levels but are still dreaming. Accepting losses can actually help you survive longer; this is the mindset of a winner.

Setting stop-loss orders sounds easy to say, but few can actually follow through. I admire this level of rationality.

Having a proper stop-loss setup truly changes your mindset; you won't be tempted or get carried away by those accounts. I have deep personal experience with this.

Cut meat, not love: Stop-loss is stop-bleeding, nothing to hesitate about.

Stop-loss discipline is easy to talk about but very hard to implement, but it is truly a killer move for staying alive and exiting the market.

Talking about stop-loss is easy, but doing it is hell. However, those who can truly implement it earn money through their mindset.

Setting stop-loss is easier said than done, but your mindset is definitely worth learning from.

Stop-loss is easy to talk about, but few can actually execute it. I think this is the dividing line between those who make money and those who lose money.

Talking about stop-loss is easy; doing it is hard. The key is probably a mindset issue.
