Setting a Stop Loss

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to set and edit a Stop Loss on the new AvaTrade platform. We’ll explain what a Stop Loss is, how to enable it before placing a trade, and how to adjust it from your Portfolio after the trade is open. You’ll also learn why Stop Loss is a useful risk-management tool, while understanding that it is not a guarantee against losses or slippage.
