It looks effective but i am wondering how will that work. If i have $100 to invest then 2% would be $2. If i invest again the remaining $98 and i lost another 2% which is $1.96 then my remaining fund is $96.04. Well, not bad actually. It somehow save me $0.04 because if i let that 4% deducted to my $100 in one transaction, i lost $4 instead of $3.96 if i use the 2% rule. I confirmed that it will minimize the risk specially for those traders with big amount of money to trade.

The 2% rule is basically a money management strategy not to order a particular trade that will see our accounts in red whether big or small account.

2% rule would be good in using it up either on forex or stocks but those kind of stop losses wont really work anytime here on crypto yet price can swing into higher percentage which would really trigger that SL so easily.Even on having 10% would still be on danger.

Yes but sometimes we really should not feel bad when the stop-loss is logged out. What would have happened to our account if the SL was not there?
