Loss streaks should be managed by adjusting position size, not by panic exits
  • Nang recounts a personal episode of seven consecutive losses over a year‑and‑a‑half.
  • He reduced position size during the losing streak, which lengthened the recovery time but prevented larger drawdowns.
  • The key is to stay disciplined, accept the statistical nature of losses, and adapt exposure rather than abandon the strategy.
  • This approach preserves capital for future upside when the edge re‑emerges.
