DCA or StopLoss?
Assalamu Alaikum friends,
By 2025, 6.8% of the world's total population will be involved in crypto in some way. And most of these involved people are involved in trading. Traders mainly do two types of trading. 1. Spot trading and 2. Futures trading
If you want to make a profit by trading today, you can easily make a profit without risk by trading smartly, without following all the old trends of the past. For this, you have to control your mind before anything else.
Many people use the Take Profit option to make a sure profit. So that, if the market pumps on a single spike, the trade will automatically become profitable and close. On the other hand, they use stop loss to avoid additional losses.
Now the topic of this blog today is, DCA or StopLoss?
If you want to trade smartly, there is no alternative to DCA. Because, we know that the crypto market never dumps at once. Blockchain collapse is an exception. Now if someone uses stop loss and the market drops to the level he has set the stop loss to, if the market drops there and pumps up again, then that trader has lost a part of the total fund from the stop loss.
And this is what is happening the most at present. Because, there are many traders who use robots to trade and make a very good amount of profit through these robots. But, if traders continue to profit from the market in this way, then it is not beneficial for those who are the market makers. That is why currently, so that robot traders cannot profit from the market, they smartly hit the stop loss and take the market back to its previous position.
In this way, traders lose a large amount from the stop loss. On the other hand, if DCA is done, then the buying price will come down to the average. When the market comes into correction, it is possible to exit the market very quickly with a safe exit or profit.
In this way, the amount of loss that traders would have lost from the stop loss. It is possible to ignore that amount of loss. However, to go through a process like DCA, you have to make instant decisions. So, to go through this method, you have to be active all the time. That is why, in my opinion, DCA is best for consuming losses.
