This tool is used by all traders, so of course it is very important for everyone
No it's not used by all, I have seen a lot here that don't use it.

There are always FX traders who don't want to close a losing trade because they think that the market will move in their favour. But the problem is, the markets are not generally known for moving in the favour of individual traders, so trading Forex with no stop-loss is literally like putting emotions over logic. But keep in mind that stop-loss orders do not guarantee you profit – nor will they make up for a lack of trading discipline. You need to be confident in your trading strategy and stick to your action plan.

Stop-loss is useful tool for almost all currency trading strategies as it can be attached to both long and short trade positions. No matter how closely one might try to monitor the market, it is impossible to accurately predict Forex market movements. Every day comes with changes that have significant impact on the market, such as global politics, central banks’ actions, and economic events. Many global factors can cause major shifts in the trend of currencies at the snap of a finger. As such, even the savviest trader can find themselves on the adverse side of a market move. When severe market dips happen, stop loss trading can help to close out your position and prevent excessive losses.
Informed Forex traders always include a stop-loss order when placing trades. In fact, you should not, or else you risk blowing your account up with losses when the price trend goes the unexpected way.

I was always taught to use a stop loss and for good reason, most and all traders are not 100% certain where the market may go.
Now I will sound insane but indulge me for a second.
What if you actually knew 100% that the market was indeed going to go your way even in the short term.
Then using a stop would not really matter in that case correct?
But the 1 million dollar question: who really knows when that will occur? And be consistent not just lucky on the draw...😐
I believe that is the ultimate goal of all traders even if they don't care to admit it..
Stops are a safety net one should always use unless they are 100% accurate 100% of the time

Always use stoplosses even if you are right, you never can tell when spike might occur against you, so stoploss I always use and best it is in saving profits for me.

I don't mean discredit other's opinions but here is my take about stop loss.
If your trade lots are "properly sized", you may never need a stop loss.
To avoid a debate because systems are different per trader, here's a thought experiment which some of you may relate to. How many of your trades have been "supposedly right" only had it not been "stopped"? Another one is, how many times have your accounts "should have been blown" but saved by "stop loss"?
If you quantify this correctly in terms of profits, then you will know objectively whether your system needs a stop loss or not.
Well Said, best response so far!!, I don't use stop loss, however my position is "properly sized" so even if any unexpected event that occur it wouldn't blow my account. Once i fully understood this i have became consistently profitable. Also when unpredictable occasion/events occur (which always happen) you can hedge your positions. To give you time in order to re-evaluate your outlook.
Also as he mentioned it all depends on the strategy you deploy...😎

You better start using stops, but it's your choice.There was an event that happened couple of years ago I can't remember but not up to a decade, market jumped like more than 10,000 pips in some pairs in a single move, although I have stoplosses and it also went in my favour, just assuming you are in such situation and have a 10,000 pips against you in few seconds, now tell me what you will do or you think your balance shit will be? Better be protected all the time.

Using stop loss is really important for trader's and all types of trader's have to use stop loss, no matter which type of strategy you are using, no matter which time frame you are using for trading you have to always follow stop loss in trading. I would suggest you to check your risk and reward every time and try to open your positions for good reward areas only. I personally on concentrate on 1:2 risk and reward trading strategies.

All the forex market does is bounce up and down between the stop losses and the prices where retail traders are closing at a loss. Whether you set a SL or not. You always have one. Even when not using leverage. If market moves 50% against you. Your broker closes your trade for a -50% loss.
It’s ultimate a scam. But the 1% of lucky traders will get very wealthy from it. At the expense of all the others.

Newcomers don’t like to use Stop Loss which is the inevitable part of trading; they have to ensure more about proper using Stop loss. And they should practice demo account for all time besides live account.

An expert FX trader will always place a stop loss order when making a trade. Some traders dare not comfortable to use stop loss order. If the price trend goes in an unexpected direction, one may lose his/her whole capital.
