# Short 0-V1

[00:00] So the one thing that destroys most traders when they get it wrong is that they've lost money.
[00:05] And what happens is that creates an emotional uptick.
[00:09] And so what they end up doing, what most end up doing is something that I call revenge trading.
[00:16] The market just took some money from my pocket.
[00:19] I'm going to teach the market who's boss and I'm going to go get it back.
[00:22] So I have a little saying.
[00:24] The market's only holding your money until you can get it back.
[00:28] And you've got to write down every single thing that you learned during that single trade every day and do it right after you're done trading in that trade.
[00:39] You got to say, here's why I won.
[00:42] This is what I was feeling.
[00:43] This is what I saw and now it becomes a repeatable process.
[00:48] It's important to keep that kind of information for yourself so that you can go back to the journal sometime later and understand what it was that you were going through and not make that mistake again.
