If I get a loss, sometimes I make a cut loss if I am in the wrong direction, but if I experience a loss, but if the previous entry matches the overall trend, then I will hold where I put the profit.

add a little bro, in my opinion we can close the entry or we hold a holding also depends on the knowledge and knowledge in reading the direction of market movements.

Good trading is not recommended to hold the position for too long, we should put a stop loss instead of wasting time holding back the floating, which in the end will not necessarily profit even more drain our margins.

I will cut losses, let losses make the losses bigger, it's dangerous for my account.

Cutting off losses after re-analyzing and ensuring that I open the wrong position, allowing losses will only make my capital run out.

If that happens in my position then I will do a partial hedging which is open instead of the first open example first open sell it turns out the price will go down Buy 30 pips from the sell price so that the margin is not eroded or locking then Stop Pluss until the price returns again.

Try learning how to hedging and locking if you can master the technique then you will not panic and minimize loss when trading forex.

Because I learned from experience, I prefer to put stop losses on each of my trades. One of them is to anticipate events like that you experience. Certainty of future market movements we as traders will never find out. Therefore we should be able to always limit the risk of loss that we will certainly experience. In addition, with us holding the floating in a state of loss too long is also not efficient for our trading activities.

hello friend trader ... the first thing you do, if possible don't choose a pair that is in line like gbpusd and eurusd. My advice is to open the position in the other GBPUSD pair on USDJpy or something else. if you hold the view first on tf bigger in d1 or w1 it will be able to return to the previous price or not

I always use stop loss 40 to 50 pips from the entry position. so no need to worry about the original balance using the appropriate mm. I don't dare to take more risks
