Practice enough on a demo account first.

@Collingwood112 Even I started with a demo account of plus500 and then when I went live with fxview, I invested $100 and made my first trade. Eventually I raised my capital amount and it’s been all good.

You can trade whichever lot you want, just remember to keep leverage at bay. That way you will keep yourself safe in the long run.

@Fafduplesis It's simple really. When you suffer a loss while using high leverge, the loss in the trade would be totalled according to the leverage ratio. If the leverage is very high the trader would take high risk. For example a trader took 50 times the real leverage on his 10,000 dollars capital, the trader would short/long 5 lots of the currency.

Leverages can be a great tool but then with the good things comes the risk; which is substantially high. If you win the trade you reap good profits.

The leverages and trade size can also be calculated through trade calculators. I have been using Fxview's Fibonacci retracements from the charts through the extreme points. This helps me verify strategies which I can then also apply to my Instaforex account to find the retractments. Fibonacci retracements is bomb!

Same type of money you will not make as you did in the demo. Demo account I believe works to offer you live quotes and a virtual portfolio to learn from the real market conditions.

jaspertan posted:Rightly said mate. Higher the leverage higher are the chances to blow up your account.
I think the best method to determine trade size and leverages is what is your risk taking capacity. Because if you take high leverages or bigger lot sizes then it will destroy your capital
The more your practice, the more you learn.

Start with a demo account, then nano/micro and after that standard. No matter what it will help you to develop how much capital you need for the trades.

The best thing about forex is that there are numerous methods of demo trading and calculations. There are multiple levels of calculation which can be done to understand the trades with a technical perspective

It is also a good method to allocate the trade according to the risk because then we can be assured that what we are getting out of that trade. If you are new to the trading world then the best method would be to trade micro lots because of the low risk.

lurescrand posted:Personally I think there is no harm in using leverages because if you know what you are doing and are sure, a leverage trade would bring you profit. It is okay then to use leverages.
Yes Dennis, and standard lots would be a big no, same with high leverage.
