I’m curious to know how much everyone started with and where they are in total career earnings. I hear stories with people turning like $10k into a couple million over the years.

It would be worth being careful during such strong news and events.

I started my the most successful trading account with $4400 in 2015. And now this account is improving by investor's funds.

I'm a fund manager. Why did you decide that I had no losses? I tried forex in 2011 and for the first time, I had a hmm.. "difficult period".

Well it's possible provided you have a SOLID system in place and no black swan events.

you can start with min capital you have. Utilize leverage which is borrowed capital holding large quantity of amount as your captial with litile cash of your own account.

I started off with $150 as i was unwilling to risk too much for the start and i would recommend all beginners also to start with a small amount as making money out of fx trading is not that easy as it seems.

Yes leverage can be used, but never over leverage your account, it can manifold your losses. Beware!

I started with $100 and right now I am at $370 but this is just after 1 and a half months of small trades.
To be honest, starting with $10000 can take you to good earnings.
