It's easy to say, but very few people truly manage to let go of past losses without hesitation.

That's right, after stopping loss, the most important thing is not to keep dwelling on that loss... I used to have this problem myself, always reviewing trades until dawn, and as a result, the next trade would be chaotic, losing more and more.

Well said, but only a few can truly do it... Most people start to blame themselves after losing, and the next trade is more likely to go wrong.

Really, the hardest part is mindset. Most people, once they lose, get stuck and keep overthinking, resulting in an even worse next trade.

The key is mindset. After stopping the loss, move on immediately. Overthinking can actually ruin your mindset.

That's right, mindset is the true dividing line. After reviewing losing trades, you need to let go; constantly thinking about how the last trade blew up can easily cause the next one to blow up as well.

Well, that's correct, but the real difficulty isn't in repeatedly chewing over the losing trades in your mind... I often can't do it.
