The market isn't taking your money, you are just at the wrong timing and sometimes it happens. You/We never control the prices (we don't forget about this), the market moves freely and that might be opposite as what you are thinking. It won't take you money if you never sell but if you let your worries control you and do the panic selling, that eventually you are simply giving it. The market never steal's you but instead, you are willing to give it, but if you just hold, there are no such tragic ends.
The market needs your money to make reasonable movement in case your don't know. Have you ever asked yourself why the market is always sluggish (dull movement) at the beginning or ending of the market? Why there is always a low momentum of price at the closing time of the New York session. This is because of low participants in the market. By that time, a lot of people have left the market maybe because they've made enough profits/loses meeting their targets.
You can't be smarter than the market makers, they manipulate the market to suit their prospects, that's why their is never a 100% working strategy...never! They're all seeing where you placed your market orders which they can decided to hit your stop loses thinking maybe your timing is somehow poor but no, they're watching your silent moments lol. Go and research on mitigation blocks and liquidity grab so as to see the manipulation of the market makers. I come in peace!
