The Stop Loss Cancellation Pattern — Again

This is now the second consecutive trade with the same problem:

Order SL Level Status
SL #1 $0.0950 ❌ Cancelled 2 mins after entry
SL #2 $0.0936 ❌ Cancelled ~5 hrs later
SL #3 $0.0974 ❌ Cancelled 23 mins later
Exit $0.1001 ✅ Filled (market sell)

You cancelled 3 stop losses in one trade. This is becoming a pattern.


What Your Annotations Show

  • “Coin ni kena close monitor… memang pump n dump. Set stoploss. Always” — You knew the risk profile of this coin before entry. Good awareness.
  • “Resistance pon kuat sini” — You identified resistance correctly around $0.100
  • “Masih tak break long upper tail” — Patient observation ✅
  • “Masih belum bergerak… kalau masih takda pergerakan kita cabut” — You had a clear exit condition defined ✅
  • “Ade spike… jaga trailing, Alhamdulillah” — You caught the spike but then…
  • Exited at $0.1001 while price hit $0.1200 — left ~20% on the table

Core Problems ❌

1. Cancelled SLs three times — same issue as ZEC trade This is now a repeating habit. You’re not just making a mistake, you’re building a bad pattern. One of these trades will hit you hard with no SL in place.

2. Massive missed profit — +1.6% vs available +21% You correctly read: “adjust stop out dulu taknice” but then exited at market $0.1001 right at the base of the spike instead of trailing above it. The spike to $0.1200 happened and you were either not watching or panic-sold near the bottom of it.

3. Entry was a market buy into a breakout Entry at $0.0985 via market order on a pump-n-dump coin is high slippage risk. On a 3-min chart for a low-liquidity coin, this can cost you significantly.


What You Did Well ✅

  • Pre-trade awareness: you knew it was a pump-n-dump coin and noted it
  • You identified the resistance zone accurately
  • You had a time-based exit plan (“kalau takda pergerakan, cabut”)
  • You caught a profitable move on a difficult coin

How to Improve

Problem Fix
3 cancelled SLs Rule: Maximum 1 SL adjustment per trade, only to move it to breakeven or trail it up — never widen it
Exited at spike base When a spike happens, do NOT market sell in panic — set trailing SL above the base of the spike and let it trail
Left 20% on table Pre-define your trailing rule: “Trail SL to 50% of spike body” and stick to it
Market entry on low-liquidity coin Use limit orders near the base level, not market orders into momentum

Pattern Alert — Across Both Trades

Looking at ZEC and SAPIEN together, you have a clear recurring weakness:

You set stop losses but keep cancelling them out of fear of being stopped out — then exit manually at worse prices.

This means your SL placement is probably too tight. The fix isn’t to cancel — it’s to set your SL at a more logical structural level from the start so you don’t feel the urge to cancel it.

Masalah bukan kat strategi entry kau — entry kau okay. Masalah kat disiplin selepas masuk. Set SL sekali, jangan cancel. Trail naik, jangan turun. 🎯
