chasing our losses is a losing game! If you manage to win and take out some money you will put it all back. The mind game will have started where you convince yourself that because you won once you will win again. And when you eventually lose, which is more often the case, you will begin to throw more good money after bad. chasing the losses once again. It is scary how fast the line will move as you tally your losses. And what you become immune to as the losses wrack up. Look at this as a very expensive lesson. You have found out that you are a compulsive gambler. Someone who finds it hard to have any control for very long. It can be so hard to realize you lost your house savings but many here have lost a house. Know that this compulsion will only get worse if you keep feeding it. I hope you realize this before you are far down the road. Take care, Laura
