Drawdowns Are Inevitable — Emotion Is Optional
Even the best trading strategies in the world can experience a 20–30% max drawdown.
That’s just the cost of doing business.
A lot of traders say they’re okay with that kind of risk…
But it’s a different story when it’s actually happening.
⸻
When the market is pulling back…
When your account is taking a hit…
When the headlines are screaming that the sky is falling…
That’s when reality sets in.
And that’s where most traders break.
Not because the system failed—
But because emotion took over.
