Taking a LOSS versus a LOOSING Trade

There is a big difference between taking a loss and being in a losing trade.
.
Taking a loss is par for the course in being a successful trader.
.
A losing trade is not!
.
A losing trade denotes that you were hoping and praying that your trade was correct. A losing trade is when you move your stoploss. A losing trade is when the market is going against you and rather than exiting out, you stay in the trade hoping and praying that it will turn around.
.
Take the loss and live to trade another day.
