DislikedIn my logs you will see the most Ive drawn down from my account is somewhere around 20% and it was down between 10-20% for a couple of weeks and I worked it back up, stayed with my plan and I am now where I am now. As you can see in my logs
Thats also the reason I dont like to increase my leverage, I feel that I will...Ignored
And what happens then, when markets change. Will the drawdown still be only 20% or will it get much higher? What will you do if you are 60% down? Those drawdown questions are really important. Cause sooner or later you will experience a major one, except if your strat really is extremely robust. Also a higher account with money that actually means something to you will make your emotions go crazy in the beginning, except you are really emotionally balanced.
Just pointing out the dangers of going in with too much in the beginning. You might not be able to stick to the plan, once really a lot of money is on the line / lost in a major drawdown.
