Trading is a game of capital

[carlfebz2]

Yes, small capital will make us waste time in vain. I prefer a trading capital of $ 100, because this can provide maximum profit for us. When people lose their money because they can't wait any longer for the market to bounce back, they are forced to sell it. And their loss is our gain. So sticking to one principle, we must be patient in trading until the market gives us a profit. Never sell if the loss will befall us.

As a professional if you are still trading with a small amount you are just wasting your time because I don't know the amount you will be making, if you want to invest in a coin for a long term actually you can invest less than $100, but as a short term trader and you want to be trading with less than $100 am sorry to say but you are just wasting time.

Capital of $100 but you could make out $5 or more in a day via swing or daytrade then it isnt really a bad idea considering that there are people who do live in 3rd world countries which this earning would be sufficient

or just enough for them to get involved with that kind of capital but if you do live on a first world country then dont get surprised that you would really be seeing these amounts to be small or a complete waste of time.

Its not bad on having smaller capital but if you do able to make it bit via compounding profits then it does signifies that you are really doing good on this one.

I think trading capital ultimately depends on the trader and how much they are willing to lose per trade. There are traders who can take a $10 or $20 trading accounts to the highs of $5000 - $10000. Anybody can do it if they know what they're doing. It's very much possible these days since you can trade crypto futures and even use leverages. Your patry $20 capital would be $200 when on a 10x leverage account.

Anyway, I'm not here to talk about leverage trading. The point I'm trying to drive home is that any trading capital should be fine as far as the trader is comfortable with it and knows what they're doing. But one thing is clear those, the more the capital, the more you're likely to profit per trade if it goes well - for instance, gaining 500% on an $10 account doesn't seem to be worth it considering you only get $40 as profit. Compare that with a $500 - $5000 trading account.

I Am of the same opinion as yours regarding the amount of capital. not really matter what matters most is the risk appetite of the traders if you use high leverage you may be at a higher risk of loss in the trade but again if the trade goes in your favor you can also earn bigger profits from the trade. The most important thing is that the trader must build good trading skills to be able to manage that properly.

I believe all traders are for profit making. Trading capital is depend on the trader's choice. You can't determine a specific amount of capital for a trader. The total amount the trader will use will be based on the time and the platform. Because trading itself is a risk taking. The minimum capital of 50$ set up by the OP is uncertainty. One can trade with any amount at a particular time. But in any business, the more capital you used the more profit you make.

Trading is not a game. OP where did you get this concept from? Trading is business and it is categorized as self-employed business. Before you trade, you have to know the area you are good with. I mean the goods you can buy that will give you the desirable profit. If you buy a Currency that is not value at that time, you lose all your capital.

The minimum capital that is required to trade effectively and compound profit is 50$; anything below that means that you are literally wasting your own calls, signals; because without a good capital; the only way to make money is if you are making over 100% profit which is not sustainable. Your profit is someone else trade capital; so i implore us to twice your trading capital.

And once again, if you are to scared to loose money; then don't trade, it is not for you

Well said bro, actually when trading with little dollars its just like waste of time and energy. Actually more profit were made with very good starting capital, imagine someone trade with $500 and you trade with $50, if the same coin you and the person traded did plus 10%, the person that use $500 will have $50 as profit while you that use $50 will get $5 as profit. Just imagine the difference, so it's advisable to get a very good starting capital and a good knowledge about cryptocurrency before starting to trade.

It could be an easy path to follow and find a road, but it is not an easy road to take when you find it. Yes, all the resources are there, all the things you need to learn are there, all of them are free, offered by so many courses and people and so forth, you could find a way to become a trader very easily. However, after finding the way, you need to take that road and walk that mile which will be the hardest part.

Many people want to get rich very quickly, all they want is turn their fiat into bitcoin then read about a token on some twitter influencers tweets, buy that before anyone else, watch it explode and be x1000 higher and then get rich overnight and never have to worry about money again. This isn't the way to get rich, this was never the way to get rich but there are millions who try to do this.

I agree with you if someone is afraid of losing money in trading it means this is not the person's passion. Choosing to trade is a sign that you must be ready to get all the possibilities that exist whether profit or loss because all of that you can experience. Therefore when you decide to trade in crypto or trading you have to prepare mentally and also sufficient capital, this is a kind of game but you can't control it because the value is unstable.

Prepare your mind for two things in crypto trading which you will definitely experience in crypto trading which are profit and loss. Don't be afraid of losing money on crypto trading because it will not help you to grow higher in crypto trading than it will make you to experience losses from the market. Increasing your capital in crypto trading, it will really help you to eliminate fear in crypto trading because huge amount of capital can help you to achieve a huge amount of profits in crypto trading. Those traders that increased their capital some years ago in crypto trading are really doing well in the community.

To be honest, I wouldn't call trading a game. Nevertheless, this is a rather serious work that requires some preparation.

Please read the sentence again because it refers to a "game of capital" rather than an actual game.

Yes, because you will never be able to recover from your losses. To trade successfully, you need to have at least $50 in trading capital on hand because if you don't, your losses can be easily hit. Also, if you are buying, holding, and selling, you will make only a few profits when you are successful, but you will spend a lot of time doing so. You should also think about how much money you can afford to lose, but if you are willing to take a risk and are just getting started in trading, start with $50 or more to get a feel for the market and see how it works.

i don't believe trading only game of capital, no one could give guarantee traders with huge capital will survive longer and even could succeed. honestly trading was psychology game which is need patience in every transaction , not to be hurry enter market and wait best moment to entry. its not easy controlling our emotion and psychology , greedy will be main obstacle to dicipline with our trading rules.

Similarly, you must use your profits to trade.If you want to make a good income from trading platforms, then you must enter the market with huge profits.Only then will you be able to make a good profit.

It’s good to see that the community is now ready to talk about this. Most people usually feel that trading is something that they can just start with a little amount of money and overnight they are making lots of profits and becoming rich. But, it doesn’t work that way, trading is something that requires capital and if you do not have that capital enough then it is not recommended that you go into trading.

It’s best to find other things to do and when you are able to raise up enough capital more than enough to spare for trading, then you can finally decide to go into it. It’s good that we are talking about this now so that newbies who are here will also get to know about it so that it wouldn’t be a surprise to them. There are a lot of risk involved in trading, you can even lose your money at once, so it is good to make sure that you have enough capital for it.

[Alert31]

Indeed! In trading Capital is the key for a higher profit but be careful because the higher the capital, the risk is also higher. Trading is not just a game because you need to learn and have knowledge about it both technical and fundamental. If you don't have knowledge in trading, don't trt to do it. You might lose a lot instead of having a profit.

It's your preference. People tend to describe something as a game because it's fun yet profitable but that doesn't mean that they're ignoring the fact that there's a serious preparation needed for it.
You can call whatever you prefer with trading, a game of money or skills or anything or just call it trading alone. It's not a requirement at all to have it call just like what others prefer to.

we can do with our skills, skills still be number in everyfield. capital or balance be second number when we have skill, alot investors will join to us as long as we could presentated business well to them.  In trading dont focus on how much profits we will earn , but focus on process how we could survive here.

no one wants to lose their money, but they certainly don't want to see the money they have just spent on their daily bills. taking capital to invest in crypto is also an effort so that they can benefit from the money they already have, speaking of risks, all the business we do will be at risk if we can't manage it properly. for me taking a little of our capital to trade in crypto as a first experience to practice trading skills is not a problem. if we are able then we can invest all the savings that we do not use today to trade.
