I have blown off my Options account 3 times in last couple of years. Worth a 3 years old Honda civic. I only deposited 20% of the amount last 2 times compared to first time deposit, so damage was subdued . Fortunately, my corporate stock account of my employer stocks has more than doubled in last 2-3 years and that has kept me floating. I hope to turn this around soon. Learning, training and observing and adapting as of now before I make my next move.
