Making small profits and large losses in trading, where is the root cause???

1. Not setting stop-loss, small losses turn into deep drawdowns, one mistake wipes out multiple profits.
2. Not taking partial profits, selling at small gains and missing big opportunities, profits are always elusive.
Stop-loss is the bottom line; cutting losses early is the only way to preserve capital.
Partial profit-taking can lock in some gains without missing the trend.
Focusing on these two points can reverse the profit and loss imbalance, allowing profits to outpace losses!
