Stock stop loss and take profit are equally important, why take profit is more difficult than stop loss in practical skills

Setting stop loss and take profit points is a necessary planning task for every stock trader before entering the stock market, otherwise huge losses will inevitably occur in the stock market. After all, the fluctuations in the stock market are too frequent, and the ups and downs are also relatively large. As a result, if investors cannot stop losing and winning in a timely manner, they will inevitably lose a lot in the end.

However, according to the survey, most novice stock traders find it easy to stop losses in the stock market and are very proactive. However, they seem less proactive when it comes to taking a break, and some investors even set a break even point before investing, but once they start practicing, they cannot truly achieve it.

Why is it harder for novice stock traders to stop winning than to stop losing?

Reason analysis: Although both stop loss and take win strategies carry certain risks and may not be accurate enough. But no stock investor wants to see the prices of their stocks continuously fall, so stock investors do their stop loss work in a timely manner. Of course, some investors may regret if the stock price rebounds after timely stop loss, but it doesn't matter, after all, they can continue to buy.

But stop win is different, no investor is willing to sell when the stock price rises, after all, continuing to hold may earn more. Most investors stop winning in a timely manner, but afterwards the stock price continues to rise without any downward trend. At this time, investors naturally regret it and dare not continue to buy. If there is a sudden decline at this time, they will be trapped.

Of course, the main reason is that novice stock traders want to earn more in the stock market. Their greedy desire will make them unwilling to stop winning and want to earn more, which may ultimately lead to being trapped and resulting in more losses.

This makes it easy for investors to stop losing in the stock market, but difficult to stop winning. Stop winning in a timely manner will make investors earn less, but stop winning in a timely manner will make investors lose even more. This is a problem that everyone must be aware of.
