I trade in this market and sustain losses from time to time too. The only way to guarantee that you will never have losses in what you trade/invest no matter whether it is listed or over the counter, is to never play. Losing sucks, just a part of the game unfortunately. Hopefully it didn't hurt you too much.
Had King used his Oli* tactics on CDFT it might would have been a bit different for you in the short term.
