Does having a lot of investing money make trading for a living much easier?

[gabbie2010]

Everyone knows that with more more as your investing power comes more profit. It is only simple mathematics. 10% of $100 is $10 while 10% of $1000 is $100. Even if both made the same ten percent of their capital, the difference in the amount of profit is dependent on the size of their capital.
It's a long standing truth that money makes more money. Only one with much capital can make much in little amount of time

Trading with a huge capital for a living will have a lesser risk compared to trading with a small capital. $100 is too small and will put more pressure as you solely depend on it for a living i.e using profits to buy stuffs, goods and services whereas 10% of $1000 is quite reasonable when profitable as well as compounding it will amount to huge profit in a long run especially with a good money management technique and a sound trading strategy.

I think that trading success depends on your skill, it's very little depends on the amount. Many people started small and achieved success, and many lost all of their money.
If you have never engaged in crypto trading, investing large sums of money in this market is risky. I think you should run something in real life out there, that would be easier.

Crypto trading is risky, research says 95% traders struggle with their investment. But without taking the risk we can't gain anything. People can gain profit quicker by investing in crypto if price get sudden pump. Small investment will take ages to gain good profit, while big investment may bring same amount of profit within short time. And learning the crypto market is must needed before investing money. So skill and amount both are important in crypto trading.

The difference between putting a lot of money for your trading capital and the small one is the difference of having "enough" profit to stop whenever you want. If you put in 1 million dollars and manage to make 20% profit one year, that means 200 thousand dollars, if you invest 1000 dollars you need to make 200x profit to reach the same level which is close to impossible and if you make 20% profit it would be 200 dollars.

So, there is really nothing similar between them on the same profit % wise so the method will always be different. Obviously you will want more money in both cases, someone who makes 200k profit will not want to just stop and spend that and never trade, they will want to trade too but at least they have the luxury to stop whenever they want.

jerry0, given your extremely paranoid posts about anything and everything, I don't see any point in the question you asked - because I don't see how you could trade cryptocurrencies at all - because it requires more than just knowledge and experience and it's not for everyone.

Someone who can’t figure out the basics needed to own crypto at all can’t have an advantage in trading no matter what amount of money they have in their hands. In other words, if such a person has $100 or $1 million, the only difference is the time it will take to lose everything.

Moreover when you have a huge capital you can change the market the way you want as well. Depends on the market and depends on the money but you can change the crypto world all by yourself if you are rich enough. If you have over 100 million dollars you want to invest into, you can buy from binance slowly and change it as a whole, you can divide your money into 5 big places and buy 20 million each all at the same time there and change the price of bitcoin suddenly.

Of course if you do not have that much money which many people don't, you can just get in to a smaller currency that has like 50k volume instead and you can invest like a million dollars and change it as a whole. So, having big amounts could allow you to change the whole market if you are rich enough.

[Gibreil]

Of course yes!

The simple analogy of trading is that, rich becomes richer and small traders is hard to become richer. Why? Almost impossible to take profits, 1000x. If you got it then you are luck. In trading, 10% profits can be the max profit of a trader. Therefore, if you have 10K usd then you can earn up to 1K usd per trade. Specially if you can buy and sell smoothly. However if you only have 100 bucks then you may earn only upto 10 bucks per trade. Its quite unfortunate for small traders, but this is the reality of trading.

It does not certainly needed to be a lot a first. It is just right to have enough capital to start up your journey when it comes to trading. It is of course in need to have money to start trading but having lots of money does not guarantee you that you will obtain a lot of money as well on your trading. It is still dependent on the coin and the market behavior and of course with your capabilities as a trader to make your trades profitable. Only trade what you can afford to loose and not all the you have.

Having money is very good, and having skills is something that is very important.

If you have the money and you don’t know what you’re doing in this cryptocurrency market you’re going to be steady losing that money until you will have nothing left from it. So, you need both of them; the skills and the money to be trading.

Moreover, when you have skills but a small amount to finance your trading, it won’t still making much sense as you will not be able to make enough profit with the little money you have. That’s why the both are very important.

You will see some people that have the money, but they don’t trade because they don’t have the skills, so they look for professional and invest the money into their hands to trade.

[michellee]

Having money is very good, and having skills is something that is very important.

Combining money and skills in a specific field will help us to find a way to make money. If you have skills and money in trading, that can give you a chance to make money, which many people can not do that because they have one of that thing. But everything that you want will not always happen quickly because sometimes, you need to wait for some time to see what you will give a good result. So if you have money and invest your money in trading, you will have more chances to make money than other people.

[freedomgo]

The amount of money you are holding does not affect your trading performance, what affect is your decision making.
If you are consistent as a trader, you will certainly be profitable in the long run and with that, it's not necessary to have a big capital to start trading.

The bigger you risk in trading the higher you risk, so if your skills is not that good enough, you are likely lose money regardless of how much you have.

Everyone regardless of our financial status does not have an unlimited money, so we should know to risk what we can afford only and be smart all the time.

Of course risk always comes with profits, people will reap great profits if he dares to take risks and win them.
However, to be able to cope with risks, investors need a lot of knowledge and experience. In the case of the topic owner, he said that he had never been involved in investing in this market, so if he made a large investment immediately he would easily lose all his money.

[Shasha80]

Not a guarantee that having large capital makes trading for a living much easier, because making profit in trading is not determined
by the amount of capital we use. But from knowledge, the expertise and experience we have can make it easier to generate profits
in trading. So don't be too dependent on capital if you want to be successful in trading. Whatever capital we have if used properly,
will definitely make a big profit too.

The amount of money you have certainly does affect your trading, just not the way you think it does. Your decision making does have a data of your capital, so your decisions are made depending on how you act and how you trade, which means if you have 100 dollars your decisions will be to make at least 2x profit whereas if you have 1 million dollars you will aim at few percent more than the saving interest rates.

This is why having how much money you have to trade changes a lot of things, you should be able to comfortably put money in it that would allow you to make amounts enough to retire, if you can't that means you are going to be ambitious about how much money you make, nobody wants to make few dollars, that is not good even in the poorest countries in the world.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

In my opinion, You don't literally need a considerable amount of money to invest or use in trading to make it much easier to earn a profit because your earnings in trading only depend on your skills and strategy on how you will analyze the market charts and manage your portfolio wisely. If you don't have any skills and enough trading experience, your large capital could only turn into losses.

It does really had significant effect when it comes to your trading decisions specially if you do know that you do had bigger capital or money to be traded off.
As mentioned where goals and targets will really be basing up compared if you do just have that limited capital but on generalization where everybody
will really be aiming on making profit in the end, it doesnt matter on how much percentage of it as long we do see greens then that what matter most.
For sustainability then it all matters on how you do engage with it because there are some people who do had limited capital do able to pull out profits
which they can sustain themselves on day to day living.

Trading takes time not just trading but analysing the market!!

If you are good with trading then why you even waste your time for other Job?
There is many people who make living with trading.

And the covid 19 means more people more and more will Come in to Trading.

[Cryptomiles1]

What really happened is that some people love trading BTC while in some countries the tax rate is not that much so what most people does is that they sent to money to their friends in abroad to help them buy. Likewise to me after the calculation of tax and expenses I decided to send to a friend in abroad to buy and hold after some specific period the price appreciated I order to sell out and make my profits.

Sir this right..

As someone whose wants to start trading, he or she has be to good with the market condition before fundings, it doesn't really matter how much you started with if an only you are good in trading you (we) can equally increase and make progress as the time goes.. though having much funds also let you make progress as well but it's meant to start small then end big at last.

[lixer]

I think that trading success depends on your skill, it's very little depends on the amount. Many people started small and achieved success, and many lost all of their money.

Right one can earn big with small initial investment but having a good capital helps in strengthening your decisions because as an individual trader it is not easy to stand strong with a small capital and market fluctuates so much in crypto.

If you have never engaged in crypto trading, investing large sums of money in this market is risky. I think you should run something in real life out there, that would be easier.

I don't think investing large sum of money is risky as long as you are investing in one of the prominent coins like bitcoins itself or maybe ETH and other solid coins like XRP maybe. Investing though is a tricky concept because if you are investing into bitcoins then you can maybe skip but if you are investing in altcoins then you have to be very careful what is happening in the market and the new developments in it because there are times when you have a small pump in price and as an altcoin investor you have to grab it.

The rich gets richer as they get more opportunity. That's just how things are.

Big gains means means you need a big capital. If you have less like only a thousand USD, it won't stop you from trading if you just knew when to buy and sell. It may not be a big gain but using the native token to pay for the trading fee will save you BTC. Its not also going to make your life easy trading this small amount but start with this amount to gain knowledge.
