I've been struggling on making positive trades for a while now. I seem to constantly break my rules because I become afraid of losing more money in my account. And I just lost my job due to a company restructuring so I can't add funds to my account. Getting a new job is what I really need to be doing at this time, but this is the first chance where I can actually trade during the day from a computer instead of my phone. I need to stop being such a degenerate gambler and actually stick to a plan that I create. If I did that, I wouldn't have lost as much money as I already have. Several of my more recent trades could have been positive if I wasn't greedy after they moved up and hit my sell limit. 

I think I'm going to write out my rules and post them in front of me so I can reference them while I'm trading. It might help if they're right there so I can tell myself not to break them.

 

Anybody have any suggestions that could possibly help me? Thanks in advance.
