Without stop loss your condition as like a ship in a deep ocean without a rudder. so, it is more appropriate to use stop loss when trading practically for avoiding unfortunate losses and risk.

Yes it is possible if you have that type of skills and strategy. Many people do hedging as a risk management policy instead of stop loss. Some do not use any of them. It is all about how much skilled you are. And what you are comfortable with. You have to find out your strength by yourself.

I don’t think, hedging is an alternative option instead of SL trading tool.

The few times I've tried to hedge it has always ended up in disaster for me, so I avoid it now altogether.

yes it can be done when you have a good trading strategy and confidence. Many successful traders do rading without stop losses but it demands huge experience and market knowledge. For beginners it is recommended to trade with stop losses.

I agree - learn how to use a stop loss well and implement it, that's one's best option. It is possible to trade without it, but I wouldn't recommend going straight away to that kind of trading.

it's possible to trade without stops as soon as you start, on condition that it's the trade based on scalping method. In fact there you don't have to make stops and it's really pointless.

Then you have to always be active on your live trading chart. Agree?

It's your system's potential to get into good trades, that is important. Not stop losses.

If you get into bad trades very often, you are probably using a losing system.

You should have a really strong psyche and great patience to trade without stop-loss. When I tried this strategy before few weeks, it was very exciting and nervous waiting

I can't imagine not using a stop loss, but at the same time I greatly admire people who don't and are successful anyway.

Well, I would like to see performances of traders who dont use SL. I am guessing there would be some huge drawdowns...

A previous example on another conversation about stop loss use.

Never trade without some sort of stop loss. Even if your sitting at the computer with the your finger on the trigger, you can miss.

If anyone want to trade devoid of using Stop Loss , my personal request , please trade some time in demo , then you could realize the importance of this trading technique. i cant imagine trading without SL , because every faction in this stock market is uncertain and no one can calculate this with surely. so, trade without SL is just a part of madness , nothing without it.

I can't imagine trading without stop loss either, but some people do it and do it successfully. In the end a strategy that works for you is all that matters, regardless of what that strategy is.

If you want to trade without stop loss, I suggest you learn about an option then mix it together.

Stoploss is like insurance. We can't be monitoring our trades all the time. It protects the unforeseen.
