Hi Sunil,
I changed your account name so all Ok now. You can change this on your forum account page, for which there should be an icon under name.
To stop overtrading you need to become aware of the problem while you are actually trading. Too late after the event as you rightly know! Not easy, but this is where mindfulness training can help. You have to learn to be aware of your thoughts while trading and interrupt those thoughts leading to problems. Check the Mindfulness book referred to in course video 27. At the very least do some deep breathing while trading, and stand up or walk around often to break your state to help avoid getting hijacked by your emotions.
