We generally know about the importance of Stop Loss, its common but don’t know when it is more appropriate to use above all the beginner traders. When was a newbie I lost my whole amount due to not using SL and after that I have been using this trading approach till even though sometimes I get more confident about the real faction of this Market.
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. And forum community can be a great source for them to acquire real trading experience in particularly Fx factory and FPa.

Stop Los must still be able to use. as a tool that will help not lose your account.

Before, I also did not use stop loss, I wanted to earn more. And as a result, loss of account.
Once, one of my trader friends said such a thing. The more often you place a stop loss, the more often it will trigger. Sl psychologically tunes you to a negative order.
Therefore I prefer not to set it at all.

It depends if u like to loss all of your hard earned money. You can go with no loss strategy.

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.

Agreed.
I don't use stops for smaller deposits and I'm doing fine
