A highly regarded study led by mathematical psychologist Amos Tversky and Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman found that investors feel the pain of a loss twice as much as the joy of an equivalent gain.
They call this 'Loss Aversion', and it means that investors hate losing money far more than they enjoy gaining money.

IN SUMMARY
IN SUMMARY
I’m going to borrow from Rudyard Kipling’s Poem IF
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs
If you can hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says: ‘Hold on!’
If you can have belief when there seems no logical reason to believe
And hold conviction when others are quitting
If you can be calm when others are anxious
If you can treat uncertainty and fear as your friends
Then you will become a successful investor.
