the habit of moving stop losses has become commonplace among traders because of their doubts in opening positions in my opinion it's not good and instead makes us confused just let it go if hit by a stop loss

always shifting the stop loss in the hope that it won't be executed is a very bad thing, and of course it will lead to bigger losses, therefore we have to accept and keep it fully so that we can trade continuously

if we already have a good trading plan then do it well, apply it and don't compromise with it, including shifting the value of this stop loss, we will have bad habits later if this habit is done continuously, so don't do it

Trading planning must be followed, avoid always looking at the market at any time, because it will make us confused and want to change the plan and change the stop loss position.
This habit is very bad, so get used to trading with commitments to the initial planing.

We know that the habit of shifting stop losses is a bad habit, there are several ways to overcome it, one of which is with confidence and discipline with the trading method.

This is clearly a bad habit that can make traders experience huge losses, because basically the use of stop losses is to limit the losses we get, if we continue to shift them, this can damage our psychology and lead to losses in our trading.

In my opinion, a very dangerous habit because it can lead to greater loss of life and can even cause us to experience a margin call in the end

of course this is not necessary, because when we place the stop loss at the beginning it must be in accordance with our technique and plan, so we must obey and be disciplined with it.

Of course this is a bad habit and we have to get rid of it, because shifting the stop loss means that we cannot be disciplined in running the trading system that we have or use.

in my opinion this is a very bad habit because it will greatly affect our trading results where we will be very vulnerable to margin calls in this way.

I think this is a bad habit that will only damage our trading, our trading will not be able to develop properly if we are still doing this

Less Faham with the trading system used will indeed make many shortcomings in running this business. Remove the stop loss or profit target because it feels the price doesn't come even though it's finally until the reason and our reason is very weak when making a decision. But if you are sure of the strategy, it will certainly plong with the op. That is why the experience of the experience will talk much to the success of a trader.

Shifting the stoploss is wrong to do because it will cause the mental trading we change let the market determine whether our op stop gloss or take profit, for example our op has stopped immediately turn off our laptop or Android not open unless our mind is calm and not carried by emotions due to our op hit by stoploss

the attitude of shifting the stop loss often is a bad attitude, and if it is continued it will fail in forex trading, it will make a habit of not obeying its discipline. I believe with such an attitude it will be difficult to achieve success.
