“Things I learned. Have HARD stops.

Date them.....don’t marry them.”

Excellent advice. I start keeping my stops at 1-2% below the buy price, putting them in IMMEDIATELY after I buy. Then if the stock goes up, I move up the stops, and tighten them to like 0.75% - 1% below the current price.

First priority is not to lose money.
