The problem with trading losses is when you're wrong mentally, you're like, because you've had this level of success, you get very comfortable with losing and you get comfortable on knowing that this is a stage you're going to go through. And you just have to tweak things in your trading, maybe tweak things within yourself to be able to re perform because you've, you've had success. But until you have that success, it's kind of walking into an alleyway without knowing where the end is. And that's what it was for me early on. So it does shift when you are profitable for a year or so, but until you get there, it is a big question mark. And I lived in that question mark for some time.
