Seriously, if a 1-2% price swing gets your heart racing, something's off with your setup. Either your leverage is cranked too high, or your position size is way bigger than it should be.
Here's the reality check: a tiny 1-2% fluctuation shouldn't even register as a blip on your radar. It definitely shouldn't come close to wiping you out.
Take a step back. Look at the bigger picture. Adjust your risk parameters before the market does it for you.
But hey, most traders will scroll past this anyway.

That's true, if a 1-2% move makes you lose your cool... you really need to reflect on your position management. Why are you using such high leverage?

People who panic over just 1-2% clearly don’t understand what risk management means. I’ve seen plenty of them.

Ha, that's true, but who really sticks to it? My quantitative model gave an early warning long ago. Fluctuations of 1-2% really shouldn't make people lose their cool, but looking at historical data, most retail investors use super high leverage...

1-2% and you're already losing your cool... Bro, your leverage must be sky-high.
