Today, I experienced a five-loss streak again. Sleep deprivation made my mind fuzzy, and as a result, my contract position directly crashed.

What’s the most outrageous? The return rate has been dropping from 80% all the way down, now only 75%. This plunge is really hard to withstand.

Watching the principal of 8888U shrink right before my eyes, I keep thinking whether I can minimize the losses, ideally to fall below 7000, and I’d be satisfied. Don’t ask me why I’m so pessimistic; everyone who has lost money understands—sometimes, reality is just like this.

Contracts are like that; one careless move can turn small gains into big losses. Sometimes I really feel it’s better to cut losses early and not harden myself against the market.
