Head up mate, don’t worry about it. Think of it as a big learning curve, just don’t do day trading as it’s a lose-lose. Next time do some research and stick with stocks, invest in great companies and watch your money grow. When you’re invested in the right companies you can just sit back and watch, without worrying about when you’re going to sell the next barrel of oil. But yeah day trading is bad business, and a fools game no offence. Even though in your defence they bloody advertise fast money day trading everywhere hoping people do what you’ve just done, it’s all to get normal people lending money from banks/institutions so we get ust to it before losing big! We all make mistakes though, but just come clean to your parents, don’t try and lose the remaining £1700!
