You will definitely have to experiment as to what STOP LOSS makes you feel comfortable and how much "room" you will give the market. The "room" you give is really a personal choice, and it does make you feel safe just in case anything unexpected (power outages, knocks on the door, family concerns, etc...). On a longer term hold I suppose you could leave enough space on a STOP LOSS for the normal gyrations of the stock, but there should be one there.
