All I’m thinking now is:
“We're taking it, we're taking it, we're taking it down We're taking it. Fireball.”
Don’t despair, eventually:
“We're bringing it, we're bringing it, we're bringing it back. Fireball.” 
That’s why I think you should always split your portfolio into three:
Long term and biggest chunk (66%-75%) of your funds. (PSG-online Account)
Weeks and months like this don’t matter, eventually it will be better and you just add whenever you think it’s over and forget about it, no margin to watch as a bonus. Don’t go there day to day, you’ll get depressed when its spiraling down.
Medium and short term CFD’s, smallest part of your portfolio (IG Markets)
More speculative and very risky but it keeps things interesting on a day to day basis and you’ll learn to appreciate days like these eventually. You win when you should lose, generating more funds to buy long term when it’s over and at a bargain price, win-win.
Align with the market rather than hoping to control it. Jump that fence, don’t be shy.
(On medium & short term only).
