Making money comes with friction costs. In gaming markets, losses are essentially the "system toll" you must pay to capture profits.



Every leap in asset magnitude is clearly priced with corresponding tuition in knowledge and space for trial and error:

Use a $10,000 stop-loss threshold to run a $100,000 profit expectation;
Use a $100,000 strategic drawdown to carry a $1,000,000 asset volume;
Use a $1,000,000 trial-and-error cost to leverage a $10,000,000 class transition.

Profits and losses originate from the same source—this is the iron law of this space.

If you have an extreme aversion to losses in trading and cannot even accept normal system drawdowns, then you've lost your qualification to stay at the table from the very beginning. Respect probability, then bear the risks you're supposed to bear like a machine.
