Liquidation 10/10 can actually be prevented if a stop loss is used correctly from the beginning.

Many traders complain about stop loss not working, and yes, that can happen—especially during extreme volatility. But to be honest, most of those who scream about losses during a 10/10 liquidation actually know exactly why it happens. The reason is simple: they feel the liquidation price is still "far away," so they ignore it.

In reality, it's not like that. The distance is just an illusion if you don't have a solid exit plan. Many get trapped in the thought of "later," while the market moves drastically in a matter of minutes. There it is. Position wiped out. A stop loss is not a cowardly way—it's a survival tool that distinguishes long-term traders from those who are just lucky for a moment.
