Try using the lessons made by the chess.com team & watch some videos online, try using the bots & use the game review and self analysis to see what you could improve on.

Using puzzles are also great for practicing.

Take a break! Do some thing else! And come back to the game with a fresh mind!

Also, play longer time controlls! Play fewer games but and take your time to analyise your games. Be Patient!

A 4 losing streak has a 1 in 16 chance of happening, so it's not that rare. On the other hand, I once played 30 games without a single win (like a one in a billion chance)

You need to go back and watch the film and make adjustments.

dont treat chess like a coin flip

it's for statistical purposes.

if you think a 4 four losing streak is bad, look at my games.

After?

Mine are forever during.

Stop playing

Will that end the streak? I always thought a win did it.
