Suppose you trade at 10% gain per annun , like safe investment companies, if you want to earn relative minimum wage, like 40k, you'd need 400k to be able to work forex exclusively.

Trading safely - by itself - doesn't relate to how much money you have.
there is always, always another trade!!

As per my calculations and as per my experience basically you need 10k to make 100 bucks every day....so depending on how much you need daily you should have the account size.

if you need 500 bucks daily you will need 50,000 as balance.

How much money do you need to safely trade forex

"safely" doesn't depend on money. it depends on trader's knowledge.

you have already additional 2 threads on similar subject:

Drawdown: how does it affect your trading and account 2 pages only

How large is your account and vote 1 page only
I can.I will. End of story.

HA H AH HAHJ HA COME ON MAN - IN YOUR DREAMS

I WILL ASSUME THE BEST CASE

1:500

MARGIN IS USD$2.5 per 0.01

spread assume it 2.0 pips

so

50 - 2.5 - 0.2 = USD$47.3 equity you have

that is meaning 47.3/0.01 = 4730 points = 473 pips

what are your chances to be right in your trade 50:50

so if the price market went against you then you will stay hanged either to hit margin call after few days or hit your profit of let's say 300 points after few days or hours depending on your pair

do not be a dreamer and write realistic matters- please

ahhh... sorry i have forgotten the night swap too

assuming the night swap is -20/1 lot = -0.2/0.01

so, if the trade will stay 7 days for example, then your equity daily will be reduced by USD$0.2 AND THE FLOATING LOSS

take an example usd/cad

it went down from 1.34 to 1.25 in few days

that is 10000 points approximately....

Assuming the "new trader " listened to your idea and opened buy then he will lose it after 1 days.

Then he opened another buy " he is still new ", after 14 hours again another loss


your idea is not a trader idea ... It is a joke

No it's not a joke. (Maybe a little) The idea is to train with precise entries. Risking small and winning big. And while the trader is still training forget about risking more that $50 a month. Also, new trader will loose anyway. Why make them invest more that $50 if we know statistically this new trader will not make it with a 95% probability? That's safe and It answered his question.
