My portfolio shows 25% Paper Loss

6/17/14

I read somewhere that stock market trading is not about IQ but more on EQ. I couldn’t agree more on this. Seeing my portfolio losing almost 25% of my total account equity value is really heart-breaking. Yes, I wanna cry! Huhu! 🙁

Before I started trading, I tried to convince myself that I won’t let my emotions affect me especially when I’m losing ‘money’ on a stock. And yes, I’m doing it right now. I’m trying hard. It’s truly hard but I’m still holding on to it. I’m still hoping that one day, these stocks that I previously picked will go back on top and regain their momentum. Pretty soon hopefully.
