I showed my Q3 post-market analysis to Grok, and they came up with the core method for avoiding losses: never add to a losing position. Some might say something about "averaging down," and I initially did that too, which did allow me to hold on until I made a profit. However, in retrospect, I found the time cost to be extremely high (capital was tied up for a long time), and even with high-probability opportunities, I couldn't free up capital to trade.
