Trading Loss Comeback

avatar
(Edited)

Hey guys,

We all experience losses when trading. Nothing can be gained without losing. The pain is inevitable, whether it's the account liquidation when trading with leverage or a shitcoin plummeting to zero due to a questionable decision by the team, like using project funding to buy a home. However, managing losses is a crucial aspect of long-term success, have you ever stopped to consider how much is required to recover from those losses?

Loss Levels and Corresponding Recovery Percentages:

Loss of 5%:
Recovery Target: 5%

Loss of 10%:
Recovery Target: 11%

Loss of 15%:
Recovery Target: 18%

Loss of 20%:
Recovery Target: 25%

Loss of 25%:
Recovery Target: 33%

Loss of 30%:
Recovery Target: 43%

Loss of 35%:
Recovery Target: 54%

Loss of 40%:
Recovery Target: 67%

Loss of 45%:
Recovery Target: 82%

Loss of 50%:
Recovery Target: 100%

Loss of 55%:
Recovery Target: 122%

Loss of 60%:
Recovery Target: 150%

Loss of 65%:
Recovery Target: 186%

Loss of 70%:
Recovery Target: 233%

Loss of 75%:
Recovery Target: 300%

Loss of 80%:
Recovery Target: 400%

Loss of 85%:
Recovery Target: 567%

Loss of 90%:
Recovery Target: 900%.

Loss of 95%:
Recovery Target: 1900%

Loss from 5% to 40%:
I believe this task is achievable without requiring excessive risk to mount a comeback within this range.

Loss from 45% to 60%:
If your trade reaches this level of loss, a substantial amount of planning and risk will be necessary to recover the losses adequately.

Loss from 65% to 95%:
In such a scenario, a comeback will be exceedingly challenging, though not impossible. Crypto investments can yield such returns, but achieving it demands impeccable trade execution, precise entries with higher-than-usual leverage, and essentially trading with a substantial amount of risk, almost in a speculative or 'degen' style.

I hope that after reading about the goals for recovering losses, traders will now set tighter stop losses with smaller percentages.

I sold some assets at a loss today.
Sometimes it has to be done for further growth.

Hedge those bets!

Yes it’s always better because all funds can get lost but of course it’s easier said than done
