How do you guys handle stop placement with BTC's volatility?

I'm still trying to dial in my risk sizing for $BTC. Given how quickly it can swing, I find myself either getting stopped out prematurely with tight stops or taking much larger losses than intended with wider ones. What's your approach?

I hear you, it's definitely a challenge. For BTC, I've found that using ATR-based stops works pretty well, maybe 2-3x ATR depending on my conviction. It helps adjust for the current volatility rather than just a fixed percentage.

ใช่เลยค่ะ BTC เหวี่ยงแรงจริง ๆ บางทีตั้ง Stop Loss ไว้ก็โดนกินไปเฉย ๆ สงสัยเหมือนกันว่าคนอื่นเขาใช้เทคนิคอะไรกันถึงจะอยู่รอดในตลาดนี้ได้นาน ๆ

You need to re-evaluate your position sizing, not just the stop placement. If you're getting stopped out constantly with a reasonable stop, your positions are too large for the volatility. Reduce your size and see how that impacts your experience.
