Today was it, I went long on margin and lost $20k. Goodbye ET. Trading is a losing game. Many of you know what I am talking about.
Went long what? Did you just keep avg'ing down? I've lost much more than that in a day, it didn't come close to blowing out my account but it messed my psychology for months and I was trading with scared money.
