Disliked{quote} I'm not sure how well that would work TBH. If you are in the EU (or with EU broker) you are gonna have maximum 30:1 leverage due to ESMA rules, and I believe the US is maximum 50:1? So to place 1 microlot you gonna need about 33 euors, dollars, whatever to open the position. And you get a margin call at 50% draw down I think. So even 1 microlot on a $200 account isn't going to give you much room to manouvre - and that's without even thinking about opening more than one position at a time! I always open positions with a 0.5% capital risk...Ignored
i trade for a few months with a 100$ per account, compounded and after 20/30 trades and withdraw the money and start all over again, same cycle; the first set of 10/12 trades was a slow growing but after that it skyrocket very nicely
every single "new" startup account was made from the profits, my main capital its in a different account acting like a "savings" account.. but its all relative to the way you trade/accuracy and how much money you really want to make =)
