    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.

    It's nice to hear other guys talk about this stuff at a high level.
    I had one of my best mornings ever today, then made a profoundly idiotic mistake that compounded the idiotic mistake.
    This video helped make me realize that I'm not crazy lol.
    To the winners and future winners out there, I salute you.

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

    Good clip Lance and important to talk about. I find just taking time off and backing off is a good strategy for a retail person. At a prop firm or running a fund, you have a bigger margin for error. However, there is a lot of utility for developing the discipline to back off and feel really good about that. Preserve capital until market conditions change.....Thanks.

    Fantastic video. I have been reading Trading Psychology 2.0 and created best practices for dark times very similar to this video. Seeing this gives me good concepts to bounce my current processes off.
    The last like 4 videos have all been home runs btw. Exponential risk sizing video proved to me that I was correct to reject the fixed risk sizing I was taught initially.
