Bumasoft - In my opinion the question of whether you are stupid or not depends upon the reason you didn't take the trades, the reason why you took the trades you did and why you moved your stop loss to break even when you did.
If it was because you were following your trading rules, then you are to be congratulated rather than condemned.
However, if I am correct and it was for some other reason, I recognise the symptoms....
. Well, as I said before, I use a mini account on InterbankFX and I've been able to not lose it in the three months I've been trading. If I will lose this account, I will refund it. That's not an issue. I promised myself I won't stop until I am profitable and that's what I will do. I've tried the demo at first, but that's too easy in my opinion. I am always good in the demo, because I have absolutely no emotions. I just take the trades. The problem I have is not really of method, it's an emotional problem. Fear of losing makes me not take good trades and then, after seeing they would have went well, I start taking the low probability trades (lack of patience). I can only overcome these on a real account, where losing some cash hurts.
