Been trading F&O for a bit (small capital, learning as I go) and noticed something about myself I want to sanity-check with others here.

On days I take an early loss, I catch myself doing stuff I'd never plan for -: taking a bigger position size to "make it back," entering trades way faster than usual, ignoring my own SL rules that I set the night before when I wasn't panicking on the loss.

The weird part: sometimes it works and I forget the pattern even happened. Sometimes it wrecks the rest of my week(or more 😑)

Curious if this is just me or a real thing for others here:

• Does this happen to you too? What does it actually look like for you (bigger size, more trades, ignoring SL, something else)?
• Have you found anything that actually helps in the moment . Not "just have discipline," but something concrete you do?
• Would you ever want something that just quietly flags "hey, this trade breaks the rule you set for yourself yesterday", or does that sound annoying/useless in the moment?

I did made a post earlier asking whether I would get AI ML or aerospace at 55k rank. And most of the seniors have made it clear that It's more than possible to get Cat-1. But far too many are saying to join a local college instead. I am stuck in this problem of whether to join VIT for btech for my degree to have a VIT tag or join a local college in Indore(I'm from Indore btw). And in Indore many are saying most of the colleges have bad ROI or Not good academics. The only viable option(as a non Jee aspirant) I see for myself is Medi Caps. So now the competition is Medi caps vs VIT bhopal. Please seniors help me out. Fees of Medi caps is around 9.5. total for btech Cse(AI ML). And if I get Cat-1 at VIT bhopal, total fees 8 lac around plus Living expenses extra. I don't know ROI of VITB. But in this age most good jobs are found off campus. So I'll have to work hard at both the places and I'm ready for it. Just stuck in this preference. Help out guys!!
