Small capital and Big capital

[MrcMrc]

Trading with big capital is always the best as it eliminates the chances of getting stuck with a trade not going through because if you have big capital you can easily invest in several tokens that will make it hard for redundant trading. After all, you will have more tokens to trade around with.

And even if you invest all the capital in one token, if the trade eventually goes in your favor, you make more profits than when you trade with a small. Capital.

Trading is like agriculture business, the more capital you have the more profit you can generate, i know how important individual skill in trading is but without big capital you gonna find a lot struggle.
But as you said if someone have the courage not to easily give up and keep making profit from trading they could grow their capital.
However always remember that even skilled individual cant always make consistent profit if the market moves so fast and unpredictable, i would take that into consideration.

Trading and investment is a game of numbers and moreso how to use the numbers judiciously while properly applying the knowledge. Some people say small capital is the best to start trading with while others say small capital will leave you with limited choices that the best is to trade with big funds. Starting with big fund will always be the best provided the user is able to manage it. So many things are connected but I conclude that big capital is good but a good trader can work with small and big funds and make profits with it. Let me hear your opinion on this!

no mate it always a good decision to start with small capital especially if it's your first time, wherein just to try your skills when trading in a specific coin. Because there's a big difference when it comes practicing in a demo account and the actual trading situation. But yes of course with big capital there's a chance for you to obtain good profits. But the question is do you really think that your skills is enough to protect your money from different scenarios in actual trading?  It's very skeptical mate in my opinion especially for first timer. So i suggest must start with small capital before taking it seriously.

And even if you invest all the capital in one token, if the trade eventually goes in your favor, you make more profits than when you trade with a small. Capital.

I will not say that because if you use big capital to trade, you will have a big risk behind that, and you need to know that the market does not always move well. Sometimes, you need to adjust your capital to trade and not always use big capital because once the market moves in the other direction, you will face a big risk of losing money.

Invest in many tokens will be good but that will depend on what the token is. Many traders tempt to invest like that, but they do not research what coins or tokens will profit later.

Yes, you are right, big or small the capital have, a good trader will try to make a profit, but to always make a profit it is impossible there will be a time when a trader experiences a loss.
If start with a small capital then the profit target must be realistic and always disciplined in financial management how much of the amount of capital is used in every trade, what makes traders lose is when they use all their capital in one trade because they always think to maximize profits and turns out to lose all.

Many might consider trading a game of numbers but for me, trading isn't a game, trading is an art and to be highly profitable in it, one have to master the art very well.
I agree that a good and experienced trader should be able to trade with small or big capital and make profits regardless, but I still insist that trading with big capital is best for professionals, a professional trader trading with little capital is limiting he's chances to make the big bulks the market offers, we all know one of the rule of the market which states that "the big traders always get the lion share in profit as well as in loss" but the fact remains that trading with big capital gives one confidence and alot of motivation as well.

My opinion is almost the same as yours, if you have a big capital, you will be able to cover bigger bases and you can get bigger profit since you have a lot of money invested into something although it will be riskier compared to small capital since one big mishap could wipe out that large amount of money.

Lets just talk about a new trader, that trader that is known as newbie. A newbie traders just like just like any other thing in life, we need to kick start with small amount which is like test running the strategy, skills and understanding of the market. A small capital gives you better emotion more as you doing practice or demo but trading with big capital is not also bad for an experienced trader if they can control the funds through the use of lower risk, money management, lesser leverage and avoiding the use of martingale type of trading.

If they know what they are doing then provably they can recover their losses if market collapse in certain instanvr but if they are new then provably those money will gone to waste, but for sure there's no guys out there will bring some huge capital on any investment if they don't know anything about it since this is kinda huge risk to donin their life. But if we talk about small capital holders maybe they have all the disadvantage since the chance for them to gain is low and also with recovering up since they almost bet all everything they had for just little positions.

... Some people say small capital is the best to start trading with

This is the better recommendation you could give to a newbie trader. You can't tell him to burn $100K just to test his skills unless he's an extremely rich guy.

In my opinion, the capital doesn't really matter, at least at the beginning. There are enough videos/tutorials where you can see how professional traders make several thousand dollars from $100 within 1-2 weeks. Of course, these are full professionals who do nothing but trade every day and often 12 - 16 hours per day. Such videos/tutorials are absolutely not suitable for absolute beginners, but show quite nicely how quickly the professionals trade and which support measures (alarms, heavy use of stop losses, ...) are are in place.

In general, however, the higher the initial capital of a newbie trader is, the higher the loss

I'm not sure what you're getting at when you say it doesn't really matter and then say higher loss for higher capital. I find your post contradicting so let's make this clear. Would you recommend a newbie to start testing live trading with $100 or a $100K?

They are true investors, they can spend such a huge amount because they know the capabilities of the market in the future. They are thinking about what will happen later, not just by today or tomorrow. They have the money, they also have the market advantage but wait, they also have a huge chance to lose if the market will collapse.
These small capital investors are just passing by that want to test the market shortly and if they don't understand, they simply quit. While those people who invested big capital are willing to stay no matter what will happen and gladly, most of them get their rewards in the end.

What I meant is that especially a newbie trader should not put any emphasis on how much capital he has at the beginning. In my opinion, beginners should start with paper trades anyway, and this over a period of months. The initial capital is therefore not important and no one should think that he must take a loan from the bank to start trading.

As a newbie you will most likely lose your capital to large parts (80% for example), one must already be aware of that. So if I start with 100k, then you can assume that 80k will be lost.

I think for beginners it is better to use a capital that is not too large. because it is like seeking experience and solving the problem. Therefore, after understanding and learning about the difficulty of trading, they can use large capital by already knowing the risks while learning to use small capital

Having Big capital supercede investors with small capital that might not be sufficient if the market goes contrary to one's trade or investment. Big capital absorbs market sentiment and market fall. This is the advantage of the whales against smaller investors who are in the market, making the change in trend to claim all their funds because the size if their accounts can not absorb the contrary moves.

It's very hard for accounts with large funds to make contact loses compared to the one with little funds that might not survive a little change in market trend. Small capital is the major problem of some investors making it look as if they are not good at analyzing the, creating consistent loses due to small differences in price of an instrument, creating inevitable loses.

Capital has a way of controlling your confidence while trading. A trader with small capital lets assume $100 would be scared of loosing $30 in a trade during retracement moves because he might not have enough courage to wait for a correction but a big account of lets say $1000 would possibly want to wait for a correction move most especially if such uses a smaller lot size because his account can carry the loss comfortably and still correct back to give profit if his analysis is right

[noorman0]

There is no best between big and small, it just depends on your needs and abilities. Trade profit and loss rates will be fixed based on the size of your capital. It is best to start with small capital and grow big by itself without ever accumulating from external sources.

small capital will leave you with limited choices that the best is to trade with big funds.

I don't understand what you mean by "limited choices", are you talking about diversification?

actually small or large capital is not a problem. What determines is our skills and abilities. many professional traders trade with minimal capital and they are successful. small capital is minimal risk but the most important thing is the skill and ability of the trader

Indeed. If we have good skills in trading, we can use small or big capital to trade and have a bigger chance to make a bigger profit if we use big capital. But besides the skills and ability to trade, we should know that the market will always be volatile and no matter how good we trade or our skills, we can feel difficult to trade if the market moves randomly like today. So using a big capital will not always guarantee us to make a bigger profit. Maybe we need to take any profit that we can, even if that is a small profit.

[Mpamaegbu]

Starting with big fund will always be the best provided the user is able to manage it.

Big fund allows traders flexibility and relaxibility, knowing they don't have to be longer in the market to meet a target. For instance a trader with a bare minimum to acquire just one BNB @ 300 will stay longer in trade to make enough that could be satisfying for them. The trader makes $40 if BNB price moves to $340. That could be 2 or 3 days to achieve. Whereas, it will take a trader who has around 10 BNB to make that same profit once BNB goes to $304 and that can be achieved within 30mins, and the trader exits the market with rest of mind a few hours of being in the trade.

While when you use big capital you will be careful and panic if the market doesn't goes as your expectation.

Actually, the reverse is the case.

In my opinion a newbies trader shouldn't invest any money at all but should start with paper trades:

A paper trade is a simulated trade that allows an investor to practice buying and selling without risking real money. The term dates back to a time when (before the proliferation of online trading platforms) aspiring traders would practice on paper before risking money in live markets.

Using paper trades, you can practice the processes very easily and get a feel for the market relatively quickly. As soon as you feel confident, you can then set very small amounts and slowly increase them. It is importantly to say that switching from paper trades to Real money trades is not a matter of days but a matter of weeks - if not months.

Even though you had a big capital with you, that doesn't mean you're going to earn well in the future. Having a knowledge like a baby in trading wouldn't be effective if learnings won't work for you in times of difficulties. Bigger funds involved higher risk compared to smaller ones, so it's certain to just start small at first then eventually increase your capital when you're about to become an expert trader.
