The point for our purposes of today’s lesson, is that your trading strategy or edge needs a large series of trades to make you money, and within that series of trades it’s perfectly normal to have strings or streaks of losing trades. So, you cannot allow yourself to get overly-emotional about a losing streak of ‘normal losses’ as discussed above, and you especially should not get emotional about any one individual losing trade, because over the course of a larger series of trades, it’s irrelevant. Next, understand that if you fall into the traps of emotional losses and getting too worked up about any one losing trade or streaks of losers, as discussed above, you are not helping yourself overcome any losing streak, you will only make it worse.
