I take a trade. It will either succeed or fail.
If it fails-no problem,I have one more chance to make it breakeven.

If it succeed-I made 300rs, now I have a fear that if I take another trade,I will lose this profit and I will end a day with 2nd trades loss+ brokerage.

This is the biggest misery when you trade with very small amount and I even dont know how to face this situation.It breaks you inside :(

This is a mental cobweb. What do you know about expectancy? What is your R:R?

No problem will try to help you. Here is something I did when I was in drawdown/ when I had blown my account many time and when somebody inculcated a good trading habit in me. If you follow it you will be out of danger soon.(If you like it only then. There is no compulsion)
1. You are fiddling with your trade once you enter it. That's wrong. Let it either hit your target or your stop. To do something about +ve expectancy do the following:

2. My trading plan is like this:

a)
Ist trade= win trade no. 2 allowed.

Trade1 win + trade2 win = Stop trading for day
B) Ist trade= loss = stop trading for day
C) Ist trade= win + trade2= loss = stop trading for day
D) 3 losing days = stop trading for week

This is a conservative approach but is a fullproof scheme to avoid account busting.

You can devise such plan yourself. But with the above plan I was able to come out of drawdowns several times.

Good luck!

PS: If you are new or don't know about expectancy I can give a small pdf to read.
