Also - as one of Lance first points alluded to: We are always even. We start each day at Zero. You cannot think of the losses as money you need to win back. Instead, you are even at zero and your goal is to make 1 solid trade today.

What a great value highlighting keeping the right mental perspective. Some key takeaways I had:<br><br>-Stop digging a hole, log out.<br>-Take 24hrs to deal with the emotions.<br>-Keep perspective. Your worst day is someones best day.<br>-Determine the causes, and develop solutuons. <br>-Have incremental sizing rules up and down.<br>-Find the easiest trades, find consistency on singles, then double down.<br>-Focus on small steps having big results over time.

Great advice. Thanks. Funny enough, I have 11 out 13 days in red for this month. So one week ago, I hired a psychologist, reduced my size... I wish I had "past successes" to rely on. But after 3 years, loosing 75% of my account, I'm really doubting I'll ever make it. Hopefully my pyschologist will make some miracles as the hole is really deep...

This year, my PnL Hole is so deep and wide that I have to sit in a specially-made chair now. The old one kept getting lost.

This video is fantastic! Thank you for your insight. I am battling this since January this year and feel like I made zero progress sometimes. I overworked on my set ups and strategies and ignored the psychology behind it. As a result, I cannot take a draw-down in a decent manner. Then I revenge trade and blow my account. It happened again!! I sometimes feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. But your video gave me hope. I really want to be a trader and need to learn to control and get out of the hole quickly.
