This couplet at Lingyin Temple cured my trading-related mental turmoil
“How can life always go your way? In all things, just hope to be half satisfied.”
Your stop-loss gets hit, then the market turns around. Many people regret it: “If only I hadn’t stopped out.” But if you avoid setting stop-losses because you’re afraid of regret, sooner or later one trade will drag you into the abyss.
Accepting that a stop-loss can turn out to be the wrong call, and accepting imperfection, are part of a trading system.
Don’t be so hard on yourself. Being even half satisfied is already pretty good.
