Been burnt on SGH. Haven't been setting stop losses (stupidly) for a little while due to bouncing volatility. Kicked in margin call overnight night before last. Ouch. Most positions forcebly closed, only a small parcel still kicking on. Must have triggered at about 40% decline.

Think I just need to use stop losses more, and set a wider stop loss margin in future. Could have avoided the bulk of this pain for a small fee if I had bought in a guaranteed stop loss amount. Lesson learnt, anyway.
