Use 1/3 of your total margin only

I would say, use max 10% of your margin only!!!

Re: Forex - 10 Tips

I wonder if 10 per cent is a bit high, I use 5 percent or even less.

Re: Forex - 10 Tips

My tips are to choose the right broker to get right platform and services so you can get enough support to make your trades profitable. Do not get too emotional and too greedy. I am made my choice by selecting FreshForex broker and I don't regret it. They are good in every aspect of a brokerage firm. Recently they are launched 101% tradable bonus facility. Some of their offers will support your account in the case of drawdown and some of them support you even if you have losing trades. All of the promos and bonuses increase your trading volume and the only thing you need to do is to trade in a regular mode and enjoy it.

My tips is to using technical analysis and using correctly. If you use technical analysis correctly, you dont to lose money. Before   ordering, follow the product you are considering investing in. And use technical analysis. You can learn here how to use technical analysis

Re: Forex - 10 Tips

There are some good hints in this topic. I also can`t stress enough how important a good broker is. I have learned it the hard way myself. Only register at regulated brokers and make sure the spread is low.

Re: Forex - 10 Tips

You should make an independent research –  there’s a lot of information online. Here are some most common tips of FX traders:
•    Don't over-trade. Wait until you have a real opportunity to enter the market (even if you have to wait for many days)
•    Don't over-leverage - Using high leverage is an invitation to huge losses.
•    Follow a trading plan or a strategy - If you want to control your Forex risks, always work with a complete method which tells you when and how to trade.
•    Use a Stop Loss

1/3 of capital is too much

Don't risk $2 to make $1? What about scalping?
