The more profitable the more fear?

  1. I don't know about you. Straight winning never did good for me. Now I am at a stright 26 days of winning, which I has had for nearly 5 years. But I sense the fear that I never had before. It's growing bigger and heavier. So my question to you is this. What can I do about the eventuality of losing. What I need to do?

  2. buy more options.
     
  3. You might be possessed by demons of the evil scalpz
     
  4. But seriously..........focus more on executing your system and don't be concerned with the "arbitrary" 26-day profit streak. It WILL come to an end but your profitability doesn't have to.
     
  5. You don't want to hear my advice, but stop trading. Give yourself a pat on the back and take a break. The statistics and your fear is getting to you and it might distort your judgement. You really shouldn't be worried about the eventuallity of losing. It may not happen for a while or it may happen tomorrow. The focus for me would be to figure out what it is that I'm doing right and making sure I can stick to it again after taking a loss and breaking that streak.

    Most of all, I think you should go enjoy the fruits of some of your effort. I know you probably won't. :) But please think about it.
     
  6. I think since you have been blessed with this nice winning streak, I think it's about time you paid back some of the money you owe Bert. You owe that much to him.
