I lost $30,000 in two weeks trading options and futures. It seems like a considerable amount but that account was started only a couple months prior with $5000. For me it was fantastic and extremely depressing all at the same time. Unlike most people I don't mind great risk for great reward, and I always learn something. The things I know now are worth more than the 30k lost. That's how I handle it, knowing that I now have possession of information worth more that the amount lost....which means I can duplicate the performance at any time.
