Tightening your stop-loss after a trade moves in your favor is the fastest way to lose money. Price pulls back and hits your premature stop before resuming the original direction. Place your stop beyond the true extreme of the liquidity block that triggered your entry, then leave it alone.

The fastest way to ruin a good trade is to move your stop loss too early. You get a good entry, price moves your way, you're in profit, and then you think, "Let me just tighten my stop to lock in some gains." So you roll it up or down, and then the market pulls back, hits your stop, takes you out, and then continues in the direction you were trading without you. This happens because the market doesn't move in straight lines. It sweeps back into areas before it commits the real move. And if your stop loss is sitting in that area, Because you rolled it too early, you're out. Now the fix is simple. When you enter off a liquidity block or a sweep, your stop goes beyond the extreme, the actual extreme, the higher low that got swept, and you leave it there. You let the trade breathe because the market will often come back and test that area one more time before it moves. The traders who make the most money aren't the ones with the tightest stops. They're the ones who put their stop where the idea is actually invalidated and then let the trade play out.
