Hi guys
I had started trading in Oktober 2018. I had blown up three good account trading till now.

My first deposit was $35, i have $40 then, but i decided to keep $5 (just in case) hehe, i have my first "stop-out" in 2 days and in 4 days my account was empty.

I had given up completely ; but you know a trader by heart never gives up till he or she is dead.:slight_smile: title=:slight_smile:

Money management is the most important thing. Give room for the trade to move and you always land in profit.
There are lows in all systems sustaining the lows or losses is the key.
At first profits don't look attractive but as the balance increases the profit factor increases and looks attractive.
Start slow and taking it easy is the key.

Now..may i ask you how much are you trading with now?
If you want, how much was your first deposit?


Thanks

Many of new trader get MC not long after start trading. So it's better to understand the concept of trading before doing real funds. You can use demo account for 2-3 months and learn from it.
I'm personally place a little amount of capital for trading.. just say total reached $50 and not to mention some NDB. It should be enough to place open position with small lots.

Thank you dear..
 Yes...very important to know what you have in your mind. Being a successful trader requires a lot of knowledge and skills. Trading requires constant research, evaluation and discipline.

i start trading with my own money is about 50$ and with 15% deposit bonus, i deposit first in XM, i cant manage to get profit back there, my money only survivr about a few hour before i got margin call a few hour after, i guess its the only deposit i do, and after that i just find a broker who offer NDB and make some profit with it

the deposit is realistic, adjust it to your current condition, don't force a lot of deposits but bank debt, it makes you psychologically and mentally confused in forex, except those who are experienced in their field, with good money management, and good at managing risks, regardless of their capital success in the world

hey friend in any business the loss is sure to happen but is it possible for us to be able to survive when we go down ??

it seems that many traders are unable, in the storm that hit him, you lose about 35 $ huh? it's still relatively small where many traders lose up to thousands of dollars

but they can always face it gracefully, and a heart that remains calm

so give your brain a moment after experiencing a margin call loss, you will find the best way to do trading

Hopefully useful friend ..

Don't give up the foreign exchange trading business like that !!!!!!!!

As long as I study trading and start trading real I have made a deposit repeatedly, starting at $ 10, $ 20, $ 100 up to $ 200 but I also often experience MC. the important thing is that we keep trying whatever capital we have to manage properly.

it would be nice to start by understanding the ins and outs of forex. do not go into the world of forex with real money before you are ready.

talking about my capital at the beginning of going into forex, I use NDB and I deposit around 100 $ dollars to start with small lots. now I also work on NDB.

my first deposit was $ 20. I opened a cent account at the AmegaFx broker. I use a pattern, take 10% profit and only be able to withstand a 10% loss.

Hi guys
I had started trading in Oktober 2018. I had blown up three good account trading till now.
If my experience is about the initial capital of trading, so the chronology is like this, at that time I first became familiar with forex trading and learned forex trading using a capital bonus trading from one of the outside brokers of 7 $. And it turns out I can make a profit of up to 32 $ as I recall, so I made a withdrawal from a number of these benefits. Then I deposit only 15 $ from the profit I made the withdrawal. So yes the first time the trading capital that I use to deposit also comes from the profit from trading using the bonus account. Then my trading account if I remember correctly only lasted 4-5 months at that time and ended with stop out too.
Indeed, the use of money management in trading is very important, therefore we must be able to discipline it in each of our forex trading activities. Better to get a small profit but can be consistent and the risk of loss is small too.

for me trading is not a matter of our capital being large or small, the important thing is the science of how we trade, can we make a profit even if we get a little, and if we can be consistently profitable in long-term trading it will also grow, which important science first is not capital

I used to start with small capital, sir. for me to strive to be great, of course. it is usually done by traders who are still learning to be consistent and continue to learn to achieve a target that he wants to achieve in trading, I am sure you too, sir.

I want to laugh, sir, if you read the writing that you share
because I remember the time when I first knew forex, and my first deposit was as much as $ 20
and even then in one week it developed and became $ 100, I was very happy at that time because my money was growing in just a matter of days and that was my first withdrawal from forex
but the next day is more mc than profit

it seems like a little noltalgia with this article. When I first got to know forex and just studied for 2 weeks. Then I deposit as much as $ 200 because at that time there was no broker who received a deposit under $ 50. And because it's still newbie then I trade without MM so my capital runs out and nothing left.;D;D;D;D;D;D;D
