Stop Loss Calculator
💡 Why Use This Stop Loss Calculator?
Arbitrary stop losses get systematically hunted by market makers. This calculator helps you place stops at meaningful technical levels using ATR multiples, percentage-based, or support/resistance distance methods - reducing the chance of being stopped out before your thesis plays out.
Pro Tip: Set stops 1.5-2× ATR below key support - this buffer accounts for normal volatility without exposing you to trend-reversing moves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where should I place my stop loss in crypto trading?›
Best practice: below the most recent swing low for longs, or 1.5-2× ATR below entry. Avoid round numbers where stop-hunts cluster. This calculator computes ATR-based stops from your OHLC data.
What percentage stop loss should I use for Bitcoin?›
BTC's average daily range is 2-4%. A tight 1% stop on BTC will trigger constantly on normal volatility. Use 3-5% stops for swing trades, aligning with ATR (Average True Range) measurements.
