togr,

The thought of trading with $$ that I have taken from my mortgage scares me, although there are a lot of people out there who do this to get started.

When I first started, I opened an account with a broker who had a small minimum deposit ($500 I think), and I paid half of this from savings and half on my credit card.

Once I had paid off the bit that I put on the credit card I setup an auto transfer with the bank that transferred in a small amount every week (at the time I could only afford $25/week) so my account gradually got more funds in it over time.

I just traded very small amounts and gradually build my account up.

Also, I found a broker that paid interest on the account.  It wasn't a huge amount, but was about the same as what I was getting on a cash management account.  Every little but helps.

Thank you for your opinion.
I have made mu choice - i will borrow money from bank with low interest so i can still pay it out with my money from daily job.
If the robots I have will succeed i will pay out the loan with profit from my EAs.

Of course it's too risky!! I would never do such thing.

my thinking is...

Open a very small account and use say $50 to start...... keep adding profitable robots...... and soon that account will blossom.

Instaforex has a small lot size  whcih is 10,000 instead of the normal 100,000 so their 0.01 trades use very little of your equity.

It is a lot easier to top off a $50 account than a $5000 account if your robots are not behaving well.

I do not know of other companies with a small lot size, I am sure there are others.

The money is in the robot... once you have mastered the development of robots a small amount can quickly grow.

Why would you say one is better than the other, do you have any facts or is that just an opinion....?

What crieria do you think are needed to get investors.
As I have great results:) and no investors

I wonder if you should put your signals on the MQL5 site. I see one signal has 900 customers at $21 / month....

As for me credit for trading isn't good idea.And if you will lose your first deposit? How will you return your money?
I think it's better to decide what amount of your income you can take for trading forex. And start with a small deposit.

I think you had the right idea with signals..  That was brilliant.

Dear Kathalena,

I suggest you study more before trading so you should know the difference between regulated broker,
trading platform and trading style.

Moreover this topic is where to get money for trading thus your post is offtopic

My post deleted? Hmm...

Dave, what magic marker?

Please refrain from shilling for your broker in this part of the forum.

There is another section in the forum for brokers that you can use.

Thank you
