Moreover, trading isn't about one trade, it's complex business. You shouldn't hope for one profitable trade, that's fine, but the point of a trading strategy is to have more profitable trades and you earn in total. And stop-loss helps a lot with that. What's more, it's not like you're controlling the trade 24/7, so stop-loss/take profit partially automates the trading.If you're trading with 3-5 trades, that can work so. But if you're taking trading seriously, you simply can't control each trade 24/7, so you would miss some of them and would lose money on them. Stop loss helps to avoid such issues. Otherwise, you can't control taking profit as well, so sometimes you can miss your profitable trades. So, it's better to set up them ALWAYS.
