So you are completely emotionless?
Even a mechanical trader, hopes his system works well.
To look forward to with desire and reasonable confidence.

Those trading a positive expectancy method will see each trade as "Doing Business".
It will be without emotion.

I'll answer this as well methinks.
Nope, not even for a second. A small loss simply signifies that I'm one trade closer to the inevitable big winner, which invariably comes along when least expected. You just move on and take the next trade.
There are no cr*p trades, there are only trades.
If you are reacting emotionally like this to an individual losing trade then you have a problem that needs addressing.
U got that right Mike ---- i have serious problems --- i was reading the forum earlier and i missed my long entry on the EUR/USD at 7.20 pm (IG time) --- and im still emotional about that
--- now ive gotta sit around and wait for another entry --- next one might be short though

How about multi-millionaire traders who have green days nearly every single day, swearing their azz off when trades go against them? Just as one gets a good rush when they make a great trade or have a fantastic day. While it's not good to let it get to you too much, experiencing the emotions that come with trading, is half the fun of it, just the same for any athlete in a sport.
Must not have a positive expectancy method. All luck I reckon.
