if we are accustomed to not using stop loss then we are often tempted not to do cut loss and mehold floating minus for a long time and not infrequently until a margin call.

when we experience floating minus we usually tend to be afraid and that's what drives us to hold protracted positions, it is very dangerous because it can threaten the security of our account and the habit is often done by traders who are still beginners.

it often happens and traders often hold floating minus because the psychological condition is not good, especially if they are still beginners.

sometimes we often forget the risks involved in trading when we feel afraid of loss and MC and are not willing if our account experiences a large floating minus.

traders who are not yet willing to suffer losses and do not yet have good psychological control amka it is natural that he will tend not to install SL and hold the floating minus position.

Yes, most traders who are new like that, the absence of SL and TP makes them more often do hold floting minus which continues to grow until the MC.

it's due to lack of knowledge.

we are indeed more often withstand floating minus than floating profit because basically we don't want to get losses that's why it's often being held but strangely the more detained it even the bigger the floating minus is happening. all because there is no risk limiter or risk management

traders who do not want to accept a loss will tend to prefer to hold a floating minus compared to floating plus, that's because of psychological factors.

floating minus always gives a strong psychological pressure and tends to make it difficult for traders to move on so that traders often withstand floating minus rather than floating profit and sometimes it's not rare that short-term traders turn into swinger just because of floating minus.

Traders whose psychology is still unstable indeed usually tend to like hold floating minus because they are not willing to suffer loss or profits that have been obtained just disappear.

basically traders who prefer hold minus minus are usually not able to give up a loss, so a small floating minus even if he is not able to cut loss.

human nature does not want to feel loss, most dare to withstand losses and hope to return to the previous price.
and when fortunate instead want to quickly take it.

on the contrary should hold when profit and quickly sell when loss (stop loss)

the thing most related to hold floating minus is psychology because unfavorable trading psychology will prevent us from giving up and respecting a loss so traders tend to hold floating minus more often.

traders tend to choose large losses rather than limit losses, even though it is clear and often occurs in forex trading but traders do not pay attention.

if we prioritize risk management surely we will never be trapped in floating minus which tortures and makes psychological conditions unstable.
