Well, maybe it is....but losses are a fact of life and your
ability to take them systematically without fault
is key to your long term success.

You see, every system ever designed and traded has suffered
losing trades and most have had several losing trades in a
row. Even short term systems that purport a high percentage
of winners will hit periods of 3-4-5 losses in a row.

If you stop taking the signals, then your gauranteed to lose
and never get back your money. Ironically, after a losing
streak, is when a system will normally bank a series of winners
or the one big profit trade.

So the next time you find yourself mired in a drawdown, take
some satisfaction in knowing that losing periods happen
to everyone and that if you stay disciplined, your method will
most likely carry you through it. Realize that the pressure
you feel to quit, is the pressure that every trader feels
at some point and it's how you handle that pressure that defines
your ultimate success. Winners trade through it and losers don't,
it's just that simple in most cases.

Now please, the above discussion is based on the assumption
you have a sound trading method and you implement
proper risk management. If you don't have those two variables
nailed down, all the persistence in the world will not
help you.
