The Confidence Killer: When Losing Trades Steal Your Mind

When the market gaslights you...

Let’s talk about the mental breakdown nobody posts about.

Ever taken one loss…
Then a revenge trade…
Then sized up to “win it back”…
And suddenly you’re questioning everything?

Welcome to the shame spiral. It’s where confidence dies and gamblers are born.

And here’s the catch:
You’re not trading the market anymore, you’re trading your feelings about it.

💡The fix?
You need a market-neutral gameplan BEFORE you trade.
If you’re improvising during drawdown, you’ve already lost.

Here’s the exact framework I use:
✅ Pre-market bias
✅ LIS (line in the sand)
✅ Tactical targets
✅ Risk logic locked in

And it’s exactly what we break down inside my private Discord room.
