you don't have to not do money management in order to make more money.
it all comes down to your skills in managing everything from your emotions to money and risks.

if you start taking well thought risks then you start succeeding. a well though risks is something that you do a little research about and see if the reward is bigger than the risks you are taking and also you have to see all the angles, like what could go wrong and what are the chances of that.

and after all this you have to think about exit strategy meaning what you are going to do if something went wrong like price drop.

[~Bitcoin~]

Depends upon the size of your total capital ready for trading. If you are have around 10+ bitcoin you can get decent profit 4-5%+ from day trading if you diverse your investment in multiple alts with high volume. Don't think about quickly doubling your capital within few days or weeks. Even if you can earn 20-30% profit in a month, that will be nice than just saving your bitcoin in one address.

Never buy any coin which are pumping high, don't sell being panic when price is getting correction.

You could  answer it   for yourself  when  you  found  out  whats the  cause  of such  loss. If you ask  me,  money management is the  proper handling  of your  money which  you do actions  which  lessen the risk of  lossing  it. Dont be  greedy because these  thing   would really put you down and also   you  must have  patience especially on doing   trading forex  because  its  so complex and  its  not  easy to do.

It's really hard there to double your money i tried forex before and i just lose $100USD with traning program i thought it was really easy in the first place because your mentor is just easy dealing with the altcoins but if you are going to try it i just woah i don't know what do you then after i lose money i never tried to do trading again in forex. I can really manage my money if i had experience before.

I want to double my capital in a month

This is where you are doing mistake. Better look at long term gain rather than quick doubling or tripling investing in some low volume coin which is pumping in 24 hour period. You may end up bag holding shitcoins i have lost around 10x within few hours in this way.

You should have really good knowledge regarding coins you are trying to trade, also you should follow all bitcoin/crypto related news constantly. One pattern is seen almost everytime, like when bitcoin price is pumping short your altcoin holdings like ETH, XMR and FCT but when after pump bitcoin price start to get some correction, start buying alts as within few hours you will see alts going green.

This is very important to know what is money management
principle in forex trading. That is controlling over your money on what
you can carry to loss. Anyway this really risky, all invesment are
riskyz. Thus we should not put all our money in one basket.

[streazight]

Money management in trading is kind of technique that will ensure your long run within trading.

Your trading volume and stop-loss levels should be chosen in a ratio based on your trading capital amount.

For example : A trade call which comes with more risk and not suitable for your capital amount then you must avoid that call without trading. That is money management.

That's unfair. When you feel yourself risky or not suitable for profiting just avoiding the trade call is not money management. You make necessary arrangements to grab the profit, though you know its risky is the true money management. Only then growth happens as well high volume trades keeps moving

You are right the greediness would really come out especially when you are trading and this feeling would really come out and its really hard to control it and your money management would really be affected regarding with this. When you do have these problems ,its only you could only able to handle that and you will surely realize that in the end especially when you do experience already losses.

in my experience this is one of those topics that you only have to learn on your own. and no amount of reading is going to change anything for you unless you start getting your feet wet.

start keeping logs if you find it hard. and follow every money that goes in and out of your pocket and try to find ways of reducing the risks and increasing the result you get by making better decisions.

i think money management is about how much we want to spend our money when we want to make trading, how much profit will we want to make it because when we got much of profit then we want it more big again even if we got it and i will called this situation with too greedy that we want to get big profit. so i think better we control ourself when we can make profit and don't take too much because we can be too greedy and we could be loss in profit.

money management is the way you spend your expenses and how you budgeting your money in investment, but if you have a skill and experience money management is not too important, when you know you will earn big profit you don't need to hold back your money, but if you are still training and still in the middle of training or you don't sure about the trading result then you need to learn how to manage your money, how much you can spend your money in one time trading

from my experience in trading for about 8 years, market movement is almost unpredictable. Most time there are many fundamental issue even technical issues that changes market detection.

According to my experience, I do not believe that market movement is not completely 100% unpredictable. It is approximately 50%. As long as you know how to analyze chart and quickly adapt to the market news, I believe that you can avoid losing money and you can also guess what the next step will be.

The things I bolded in your post are contradicting each other. If you have been trading forex for a while now then you should have at least learned that having a strategy for managing your money is a must. This makes me think that you are either really new to trading or just a person with a gambling problem who sees forex trading as one giant casino.

exactly with forex the first thing that we needed to learned is how to manage our money decreasing the possibility of a loss and making sure even it is just a traction of profits that we get from time to time we deal with trading so i guess you should study harder not just because you been there for quite a while you just can depend with your instinct its not the proper way it should be precaution first before anything else and it is your investment noe the less just go to gambling casino's and take the risk.

[pooya87]

here are the rules i follow:
1) never do any trades unless you are sure about it. which means not buying anything and crossing your fingers for a price rise. you have to be sure about the rise before buying

2) have stop loss. which means selling if price went down to a certain percentage of what you have bought.

3) never go all it. invest what you can afford to lose

4) it is a good idea sometimes to diversify. meaning to buy multiple different altcoins not only one.

No, money management will not help you to find out the opportunities for earning in trading but it will help you to prevent losses.

The strategies only will find out the opportunities of earning and how secure you will be is guaranteed by your money management tactics. But different trader will have the different opinion about money management, but definitely it has nothing to do with your profits/predictions.

If you invest only what you can afford to lose, you won't hit it big in crypto-trading.
When you are really good and making repeated profits, you can take more calculated risks and invest a bit more than you can afford to lose.

I believe many people here don't know the principle of money management in forex trading. Money management is not about making profit rather is managing of risk in trading. We all know that predicting market movement direction is hard so money management help you to manage the risk of wrong or bad trade.

Money management is when you try to spend any money that you earn as quick as possible

4) it is a good idea sometimes to diversify. meaning to buy multiple different altcoins not only one.

These set of rules does really help because im using the same thing when im doing trading and its somehow helpful especially when you are in the middle of a trade. If you are doing this money management is already engaged into it.You must really risk only the money that you can afford to loose but dont just let it gone in an instant thats why we are trading because we do love to make profits.

[Kevin77]

If you invest only what you can afford to lose, you won't hit it big in crypto-trading.

No, it is not working in that way. When you are risking only what you afford to lose, you will get peace of mind for your trading. That will help you to go depth with your technical analysis part. Obviously a strong technical analysis will get you enormous profits.

When you are really good and making repeated profits, you can take more calculated risks and invest a bit more than you can afford to lose.

Still you must invest only what you afford to lose. When you are rich, you may get chances to trade with big capital amount, it doesn't mean beyond affordable limit.

[PokerFace3]

you must invest only what you afford to lose. When you are rich, you may get chances to trade with big capital amount, it doesn't mean beyond affordable limit.

Yes, basically managing everything within our control with the respect to our capital amount and the risk levels must be meant by money management.
Failures in trading may happen due to improper technical analysis which will not be covered by money management, but proper lot-size and risk levels must be covered money management.

All what you pointed above revolves around risk and money management, so what do you mean by first saying you don't have to do money management in order to make more money? To become a skillful and profitable trader, risk and money management is inevitable, because any trading decision taken outside of these two always lead to loss and most times, an entire account is wiped out

Just my own analogy about money management, by the definition itself it wouldn't differ on how any other management thing is done, it would just be identical in terms of the principle however you're just dealing with money and in this case your own and not the people that usually goes with managing which you handle and works for you so if you don't know the basics of management and failed on money management, you already know what went wrong.

[zac2013]

Sorry to dig this thread up from the grave, but i have just found it on google & felt compelled to write something 

---------------------->

Not one post here understands money management.... simply put it is "the % allocation of your capital that you put into each trade".

Most professionals will tell you that 1%-3% of your "bank roll" per trade (or coin) is a good risk strategy.

So for example if you start with $3000 and then decide on a 1% money management strategy, you will put $30 exactly into each coin you buy.

You then need to rebalance your stakes if your "bank roll" increases or decreases.

A 1% strategy will enable you to buy 100 coins

A 3% strategy will enable you to buy 33 coins

"bank roll" = total amount of cash you have

Yes it is me, I have never tried forex, I tried to ask about forex and I do not answer anything except a conclusion that it is very risky. financial management in trading is very important and I do it to keep my assets.

Learning money and risk management is mandatory as the basic especially in investment and trading business.
Money Management is the process to how take a profit for daily, weekly or monthly with the risk in your business.
How risky to open position in the price now or later? how much i take a profit or cut a lose? if you dont know the answer, actualy you must learning money and risk management.
