No "trader" would every let their account drop from 15K to 5.7.
Try rethinking your trading policies and your money management program (if you have these).
In the meantime, stop trading until you learn what you're doing, why you're doing it and how to do it. There's more to trading than ente4ring orders.
PS. yes I made money with the puts I bought the other day
Many traders face this kind of problem, I would suggest you not to loose hope and go for automated trading systems. These systems are the future of trading. They have ensured an online environment with full trading functionality.
Maybe you should quit trading, and find yourself a good mutual fund?? Just a thought.
Wait it out. In all likelihood, the market will go up again. The biggest long-term returns are from passively-managed accounts, not aggressively-traded ones.
Welcome to the club. I also lost over $3,000 today
and just in mutual funds that are conservative.
This may be a big correction, so hold off for awhile.
