On a thin pool, a stop at -30% can fill at -60% because the next buyer is far below. Stops still help, but size is the real protection.
Size from the stop
If losing 2% of your account is the limit and your stop is 40% below entry, the position is 5% of the account.
Use chart levels
The chart desk draws your entry, stop and targets over the real candles with caller markers, so you can see where the levels sit.
