After a losing streak, I reduce trading activity or take a short break to avoid making emotional decisions. I focus on reviewing my process and following my rules instead of trying to recover losses quickly.
Just take a break and look at the process of your trades after calming then. Only then start trading again.
Hardest thing in trading honestly. What works for me is having a daily loss limit that I treat as non negotiable. Once it's hit, the session is over. No exceptions. It removes the decision making in the moment when emotions are already running high. Revenge trading doesn't feel like revenge trading when you're in it. It feels like opportunity. That's what makes it dangerous. Having a rule that's bigger than your feelings is the only real protection. 📈
