Just a Passer By, Welcome to Silicon Investor and to the HOME thread. After reading your post, I get the feeling you are a bit too hard on yourself. It appears you are making good decisions and that is what matters. And as you point out, gains can take a long time, yet losses can happen very quickly.

There are not many traders doing dances in August. So you are hardly alone in your bewilderment. Many investors and traders net worth is lower now than they are used to seeing. The Dow & Nasdaq averages do not completely reflect tech selloffs. So it is easy to think that the rest of the world is doing fine when you are not. But there are many days when the Naz is up sharply when the very best tech stocks are down sharply.

So while you are working toward learning to better preserve those gains, consider that you are never alone in your quest.

Plan your trades and trade your plan!

and always. . . . .Profit Often!
