What do you do after you suffer a huge loss?
If you have more money would you again take the risk and invest or would you just stop trading and try to earn in some other way?
I know that it is hard for us if we lose our money in trading. Some people are now quitting in trading because of the loses that they experienced. I believe that loses is part to become a good trader. We need to experienced losing in trading for us to become a better trader.

About 5 years ago I was try to trade with OIL and I lose it all. Because the price dropped so hard. At first I feel pretty bad and I didn't tell anyone about that. Then I was only thinking should I invest more and try getting back that money on other investment. But no I just stopped with trading on markets , then I find out about bitcoin and start investing again. But now I invest only 20% amount that I earned on bitcoin investment, so if I lose it won't hurt that much.

It depends on my trade history, if I was able to double my investment previously and I experience a huge loss, I would definitely invest again and avoid the mistakes I have done
You have mentioned a good point. Indeed it hugely depends on the type of experience you had with that particular investment. If the loss has been because of your mistake, it could be recovered but if it is just because of faulty nature of investment, you cannot get your money back.

This is the reason so many people are after bitcoin because they know if they face loss here, it is because of their mistake, not of bitcoin.

keep on going bro, nothing stops even in losing trades, if in trade just want to lose do not have to trade, I think coin there is no death, sometimes up sometimes down value, now there are still many opportunities to be able to see profits and victories, stop trading is stupid. to see all possibilities we have to do research and read. with reaseach we can know more and will learn more, are we going to lose continuously Huh we can minimize defeat if we are able to read the opportunity, read the situation, if you follow ponzi or scam project with the desire to achieve profit in short time to eat the possibility of defeat to you very big, but if you patiently membca situation and opportunity to hold your insvetasi I am sure you will have a bigger chance .. so lose our pub relax

Loss is always hurt. Huge loss is more hurt. Everybody eve face this loss if they are trader. In my opinion, stop for a while and investigate what wrong with our strategy
Honestly, loss sucks but what can we do. This is something we just have to accept as traders. We cannot just have a 100% perfect trade all the time but at least when you are good, you will get the best of your trade and even get back more than what you lost rather than just sobbing about it. I remembered how I lost so much recently on my set order while sleeping, which was about 60% of my trade amount, it was shitty, but it is just part of it and all the mistake I did or bittrex did for me was the stop loss that I set not working but then karma being a bitch, I got back more than I even lost the next day.

at the first time i get huge loss i get sick for 3 days. after that i get little traumatic about investment. but as time went by the mental dya recovered, and I learned to re-invest in small amounts. and not greedy in taking advantage
That's why we really need a presumptuous attitude towards trading or in any online activities, that's why people here keep on telling that risk only what we afford to lose, even we know that it's hard to do but sometimes we didn't get what we wanted, just always keep going and learn to stand up and move on, know that orhers already made it, so we can still also success on it, in time.

First you need to rest and clear your mind. And then analysis why you lose,  learn from your lose. Don't give up.

Always have a Plan B regarding on this kind of situations on where you should have a back-up plan when you do lose up money specially on big amounts.I know that most of us would really lose interest,stressing so much ourselves but we should really accept the fact that it is always been part of the risk on losing money.In this case,you should remain calm and think off on other way on how to recover its either still on doing trading or engaging into another thing.
Plan B is always good as it helps to recover at least from the craziness of the trade. Huge loss can be crazy and there is no trader one way or the other, either at an early stage or later on, that has not experienced a huge loss before. Shit happens, but how to deal with the shit after it happens is what really counts and plan B most especially in looking for another better trade after getting out of that one is what counts.

Sometimes I can't control my emotion after a major loss, I have mix emotions for myself and sometimes I feel so stupid. Also it always took a while for it to sink in my mind like I can't believe that it really happened. But of course I'm trying to control and manage all of it so what I'm doing is to have a break from it, try to unwind and picking up my thoughts. Sometimes trading make us go crazy tho. Grin

Well we can't deny the fact that after experiencing a huge loss we feel traumatic but then again it is not the reason to stop trading or investing or taking a risk. But we should be thankful with this failure because there is something that sink in our mind or a lesson that we learned from it. So if we try to invest again then we will be more careful and apply those learnings.
Exactly. You should always learn from the mistakes that you've made as you move on with your life. Those mistakes is what makes you a better person, a better trader in this case. Because if you just keep on making mistakes without learning from it. You'll definitely won't reach anything. You'll become a failure.

Ny mentality is of course i need to win back that huge loss that happened to me. I am not going to panic or lose hope because that is a huge amount of money there is no way i am gonna let that pass by without winning that back to me. Because in this business it is normal to lose money and some people are losing hope after that and lose their money forever but me no i am not giving up in that and i am gonna work hark more and strive for my goal i need to gain a pot and it is not impossible to win that back and even gain even more.

In that scenario i calm myself and take break a little while to relax my mind because of lose of investment, loses are the part of trading investment need to accept this part of game as trader and try to invest again to cover up the loses.

I just accept and learn from my past mistakes. If the reason on why I lost huge amounts of bitcoins were due to a force majeure or something that is inevitable to happen, then I just accept it and risk again. Before investing or trading, I always treat them as money that I am willing to lose to prevent drastic regrets after. Some people also treat their money as something that is meant to be loss or to mature in a given time. Though the feeling sucks after losing a huge loss despite making it as money that you are willing to lose, you do not have any choice but to move-on and learn from it.

Its a normal feeling that after a huge loss is your feeling down and shock all you have to do is to move on and start again with a new day.Analyzing and start again seeing what is wrong ,more experience is best to make a best trading when you invest it again.There are two things in trading a huge loss or a big profit .

You're completely right. If you feel any emotion at all, it means that you made the move based on feelings instead of a systematic approach.
