A stop loss is the line that says the idea was wrong. Placed well, it protects capital while giving the trade room to work. Placed badly, it either exposes too much or gets clipped by normal noise.
Anchor the stop to something the market respects, such as beyond a swing high or low or outside a support zone, rather than a tidy figure.
The question to answer is: at what price is my reason for the trade no longer valid?
A stop that ignores how much an instrument normally moves will be triggered by ordinary fluctuation. Wider moving instruments need wider stops and therefore smaller size.
Tools that measure typical range help you set stops that survive noise but still respect risk.
