DislikedHapa, with 2000 in your account, I'm thinking you should start with micro lots instead of mini. I think it's important to get the phsycological factor in when trading with real money but if uncomfortable you may be underfunded. Find a suitable bro-ker if need be.Ignored
That is a good point and on the account I have I can trade down to 0.01 of a standard lot. I´ve been trading mainly with one mini lot with tight stop losses (many of them have been too tight) and t/p which is either too soon or too far away unless I am monitoring the trade.
In order to grasp this skewing and stuff I´ll start experimenting with smaller lot sizes based on the amount of movement/loss I´m prepared to take bearing in mind it has to be enough to make it better than demo trading.
