DislikedIve been there, losing half of my account in one trade, (thankfully my account wasn't very large) in my case it was because I did not have a S/L in place and I just knew it was going to turn around in my favor all the while I just sat there I watched my account dwindle away. Sheer stupidity on my part but I I finaly learned my lesson.
But that has got to really hurt.
Hang in there, you will get over it, you will.
As one of the above posters stated:

Get drunk, clear your head, and...Ignored
