It was acceptable to have losses in trading but it was also different when you are saying ALWAYS. If this case is still happening, I have to quite in trading. There is something we need to figure out what is wrong and where are we getting wrong, our strategies? Luck of knowledge? Or we are an emotional trader.
Because we are still going to continue trading without looking these holes on us, believe me, we are not going far but just keep on losing. That was hard when we pretending ourselves that we are totally ready for this thing but actually is not. That is why we have to look back and have to think deeply.
Yeah, always is the difference here when you are trading. Even the greatest traders make losses, you can be a hedge fund worth trillions of dollars and you could still make a loss time to time. Hell they make the biggest ones that destroy the economy most of the times and have financial crisis, so we all know that they do have losses.

However, when you are talking about losing money constantly, that is something different. I personally think the best way to move on from the losses is to figure out what you did wrong and not doing that. But if you have tried many methods and still losing money, maybe trading is just not for you? I don't know the cause of the loss in topic here so I can't say something, how you lost money and why you lost money will change how to handle it as well.
