I'm having a problem with a lose streak

I'm having a problem with a lose streak

Not long ago, I switched from trading with a prop firm to trading my own account through a Axi broker and I’ve encountered my first-ever losing streak.

Psychologically, it hits much harder since it’s my own money, my strategy allows for this many losses in a row but it’s very unpleasant for me. Should I just trust the strategy and keep opening positions, or should I take a break and review my trading journal?

Edit: Decided to take a break, today I recieved one more stop loss, think I need to rebuilt my trading strategy and check my mentality state. Thanks to mate in the comment for advice to take a pause.
