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
haha, thats why you try to find no deposit bonus am i right ? if you are looking for broker who accept deposit under 50$ there is many i think like fbs and octa is one of them, just try your luck again bro

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
Deposits affect our psychology in trading, with big capital, we must endure great resilience and we save more in trading, if I never deposit a large amount up to 50 $ and we take advantage of bonuses to increase our resilience, just a little capital every week we get 100 % is enough for me, with even small capital if it can be consistently good for our trade, big capital if we cannot process and cannot manage our financial management, the results will still be a little better capital but can be consistent.

somehow i am thinking is it wise for us to count how lose our money is ? doesnt it make us insecure when trading and get our emotional while trading, i myself loss 50$ only but when i thinking about it, i just feel guilty to myself lol, how about you sir ?

My initial deposit on the forex time was using the profit from a broker that gave a no deposit bonus of $ 30. once it grew to a balance of $ 100 due to mental and psychological stress that wanted to make even more profits shortly afterwards my account experienced a margin call. up to the second deposit using the allowance I saved about $ 68

What is the ideal trading capital to be able to trade for living, in my opinion the question is not right, maybe more precisely is how much profit is ideal for trading for living? because what is used for life is the profit generated, and not the capital used, even though the capital is large, but if the profit is small, of course it cannot trade for living, so capital has no direct effect on trading for living.

The question arises because of the perception that the greater the capital used, the greater the results obtained so that they can fulfill their daily needs. But in reality it is not necessarily with the large capital of the results to be able to meet life's needs.

More easily, maybe the question is how much is the ideal capital in trading forex?
If the question as above, I can answer but not on the magnitude, because in my opinion the ideal capital is capital from our free money that we are ready to lose money when doing forex trading

My first deposit was $ 20 in January 2018.
by using a 50% bonus at one of the leading brokers.

at the beginning of the trade I was confused in the transaction. I also learned from YouTube and forex articles.
for 1 week I suffered a loss of 5 $ from my balance, and in the second week I got profit and profit.

and in the end everything was gone and MC happened because I didn't know about stop loss, but I didn't give up.

After 2 years I continued to successfully enter the contest and deposit finally I found a suitable strategy and got consistent profits.

it's good to learn with a demo account and there is also no deposit bonus, but you won't get what is called emotional and psychology in a trade.

just try using real money then you will feel it.

I just have to learn with real money for 6 months to get consistent profits, even though I had previously studied with a demo account and also NDB.

actually for the minimum deposit or capital needed to trade in my opinion is 100 $
if we have funds of 100 $
can use account cent with a capital of 10 $

I think it's enough
