I don't like holding a position like that, I prefer to use a stop loss because after all using a Las stop is important and using a stop loss can maintain our security.

persisting in a losing condition is something wrong because when your position is floating minus you should not hold it, therefore it is important to always use stop loss when opening a position

holding a losing position is one of the things we should not do in foreign exchange trading because the longer you hold a losing position, the more your money will be eroded later and MC

A trader can lose a lot of money if he holds a losing position for too long and doesn't want to cut the loss because that would deviate from the trading plan that has been made.

Holding a losing position is one of the things we should not do. When you always hold a losing position, it actually makes it difficult for you to trade with minimal risk.

People who often hold losing positions generally have little experience because their psychological characteristics tend to be unstable so they hold losing positions.

It's best not to get into the habit of doing things like that, holding a losing position, it will actually make it more difficult for you to make a profit. Likewise, if you already know that the trend doesn't match your analysis but you decide to hold a minus floating position, you shouldn't be obliged to use it either. stop loss

Maybe you should know what causes us to often hold losses for too long, in my opinion this is all due to uncontrolled trading psychology, so we often allow plotting losses.

In my opinion, holding a losing position is the wrong condition, therefore it is very important for you to trade using a stop loss so that everything becomes more comfortable and calm.

Holding a losing position is the wrong thing when you are like that, it is very unreasonable and this will always make it difficult for you, making you lose and unable to carry out trading activities well.

When you hold a losing position, that is something that I think is inappropriate because when you continue like that, it will definitely be difficult for you to get big and high profits and of course you will always be MC.

For me, a losing position really shouldn't be held. But if you have determined your risk limits well and set a stop loss, I think it doesn't matter because you already know when you are in a negative floating position, you know how much your risk is, according to your management, you must have calculated it.

It's better for you not to do things like that because when you do things like that, it's the same as losing your money on purpose because it's better for you to always use a stop loss.
