Market downturns can really test your patience, especially when emotions start creeping in. I’ve been trading for a while, but I still catch myself second-guessing decisions when things get shaky. For those who’ve navigated these swings successfully, what’s your go-to mental framework? Do you have specific habits or routines that help you stay cool under pressure?
I’m curious about how others handle the psychological side of trading whether it’s sticking to a strict set of rules, stepping away from screens for a bit, or even just reframing how you view losses. Any tips or personal experiences you’d be willing to share? Would love to hear what’s worked (or hasn’t) for you.
