how much secondary resistances????
I try cap my primary resistances total 80 + 55 for all difficulties.
But how much secondary resistances characters need?? (stun included)

my current resist inside ( )

Stun (86)
Life leech (55)
Reflected damage (35)
Energy leech (50)
Disruption (58)
Trap (34)
Petrify (66)
Freeze (60)
Sleep (0)
Slow (39)

Does anyone need sleep resistance? It seems to be extremely hard to get.

sleep resistance doesn't needed, trap, distruption(if distruption is on effect your skill in shortcut will be look like cooldown), freeze, slow, stun, life reduction. well if you really hate that just use this set https://www.grimtools.com/db/itemsets/144

Sleep resist is extremely hard to get. Only way to fix it is by adding "Seal of Resonance".
there is no "rule" to secondary resistances like there is with primary
from what i'm glancing your resistances look real nice (better than what i often manage to gather)
i'd say, "how does it feel?" when you fight. Do you feel like you are getting excessively slowed, frozen etc?? i think it's pretty safe to ignore sleep given how non-existent it is(unless 1 of that handful of items happen to fit in your build? o.0), but try pay attention to what you encounter, that feel like a hindrance
then consider if it's worth adjusting to obtain that, but ofc in a way that doesn't gimp you severely otherwise.
i'd still say Primary resistances, DA, "mitigation" should take priority over attempting to cap secondary resistance, specially when already having "that much" -but i'm no expert

U dont need 2700 DA, 3k OA. U dont need to max out all resistances, u dont need 8k+ hp. U dont need secondrary resistances as well. Those stats are not minimum or neccesary to finish Ultimate. If u want to solo crucible or deep shattered realms - thats another thing.

*or hardcore mode

I can't imagine the stress of trying to play through ultimate HC with less than 8k health.

It really depends on how naturally tanky you are and how much remaining 'active' is integral to your survival. Some builds rely on huge ADTH or constantly channelling a skill to gain health (typically nightblade variants and arcanist or necro casters) for them stun resist and freeze resist are hugely important cause if they get stun/freeze locked for even a few seconds against tough enemies they die. Where as by contrast soldiers, shamans, oathkeepers etc who tend to be tankier can get away with lower values here.
