Hi NotAlone,

As far as I know the stop loss function on eToro is working well.

SL is the price to which an asset (crypto, share, cfd and so on) can fall down until you automatically close your transaction.
So it is the minimum price for which you want to keep the asset, not the maximum amount you want to loose on a transaction.

I really think that you shouldn't be trading in crypto (not alone :D ) if you do not yet understand the basic principles of trading.
You should think about getting practice with a demo account, for example the virtual money on eToro.
Or you could consider to copy a Popular Investor on eToro.

STAY SAFE
