dr-b. Sorry about your loss. It's something we can all relate to, but awful to deal with.

Most all of my losses, and for much greater amounts, were made from not paying enough attention, to my picks and not taking profits or limiting losses like I should. Sometimes it was bad timing (going short when it should've been long)

But one day I was in the middle of a trade when a client called and distracted me. I had pressed the "preview" button then got distracted by the call and forgot to press
the "enter order" button until it was too late, so I missed my trade and ended up losing 10K on that one. It's a live by the mouse die by the mouse world here.

I hope you are able to make it up soon. Hopefully you'll have some good luck to make up for the bad.
