Pulling the plug on this one. The entry was rough from the start, and execution didn't help matters. All signs pointed to cutting losses here, so that's what I did. Sometimes the best trade is knowing when to step out—no point trying to salvage a position that was doomed from the beginning. Taking the hit and moving forward. That's the game.

Be decisive with stop-loss, or you'll keep getting hit repeatedly. Learned this lesson this time.

Timely stop-loss makes a winner; there's nothing wrong with this move.

Stop-loss is truly an art; recognizing the situation early is much better than fighting against it.

Hmm, that’s a bit intense, but this is what professionalism looks like.

Taking a loss and quitting—that's what a professional player should look like. Setting stop-loss isn't shameful; stubbornly holding on is true amateurishness.

Stop loss is just that—stop loss. There's nothing more to say. It should have been pulled out earlier.

It's wiped out. From the moment of entry, this trade was never in the right direction. Accepting loss is the only option. Sometimes, cutting losses promptly is more professional than stubbornly holding on. Why self-torture?
