Insane in the Brain..
Can’t believe I’m here to inform you guys that I lost £17k today and the last positions were liquidated just now. I’ve been shorting since 4389 and kept doubling down till 4410 with big lot sizes.
Blown the account and all my life savings gone. I really don’t know what or how to feel right now. I’m honestly devastated and heartbroken

make sure you take only 3 trades for the day when 1st 2 are sl, hoping for your recovery from 2026 onwards

And just before the nice holidays. I felt the same way in 2018. But hopefully, you'll come back stronger. Analyze your mistakes and learn from the errors you've made.

£xxxk. It will get better eventually, but you need to take time off.

Man, it takes real guts to post this. A lot of people here are losing accounts, but they don’t have the courage to say it out loud.
At least you faced it and overcame that fear by sharing it.
What happened doesn’t define you as a person. Many experienced traders have been through the same pain at some point — they just don’t talk about it.
Take some time, step back, and don’t make any decisions while emotions are still heavy.
