What is the reasonable amount you encourage to start trading

[michellee]

The reasonable amount to start trading is the amount you can afford to lose so the amount will be differ from one to another and there is no right amount to start trading. If you can afford and risks $50 only, that is the reasonable amount to trading.

You can't following others using big money  to trade which is risks your income in trading. The situation will becoming worst if you don't enough skills to trade which can lead you losing the money. Initial capital will not crucial but skills will be important thing to have so you can trade and make a profit.

This is very appropriate, in my opinion, because investing in Bitcoin is similar to trading. The amount isn't the most important factor when starting. It's very easy to determine. Whether investing in Bitcoin or trading, I believe the amount depends on our ability to afford it. It doesn't have to be a large amount to start. What's needed, in my opinion, is consistency and a lack of pressure. In other words, whatever we choose to invest, as long as it doesn't burden our daily needs.

Everyone is different. This means our current income may not be the same as another person's. Each person has their own responsibilities. Regarding the patterns used by others, it's clearly their right and authority. There's no need to be preoccupied with what others say, so we can follow suit. It's better to do what we have, based on our knowledge and experience. As long as we remain committed to our own personal values, this is the best and most effective approach. There's no need to listen to what others do, as each of us has a different approach to deciding what we own.

Is it the volume of your capital that determines whether you're going to be in a long term trade or can any amount available encourage both short term and long-term trade. In most cases I observe that my capital go down quick probably because of inexperienced approach but I doubt because what I think that's makes most people succeed in trading is the high volume of start up capital and managing tools applicable to improve trading experience. But what's your take if one must sustain long term trading or investment?

You can have a large amount of money in your trading account as capital and still not succeed as a long term trader if you don't have what it takes. Imo, what you need right now is the right knowledge, so focus on improving your trading skills not on increasing the size of your capital because any amount can encourage both long term and short term trading if you know what you are doing in the crypto market.

And if you want to stay long term in the crypto space, then you should consider investment rather than trading. Not just by investing on random coins stick to Bitcoin, start accumulating Bitcoin with your discretionary income (leftover money) though DCA method and then hold it for long term.

Bitcoin had proven to be a long term store of value with potential for significant returns, so there's nothing to fear when the market dip, instead see those dips as an opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin aggressively at a lower price and hold for long term because Bitcoin price will correct itself with time.

There is no fixed amount that is considered reasonable for trading. You can start with as little as you want, or you can trade with a large amount. However, people generally say that having a larger amount of capital helps you make better profits.

This is partially true. For example, let’s say you have a balance of 1,000 USD and trade with $10 per position, making a $5 profit on each trade. People might say that having a larger balance helps. But in reality, you only made a 0.5% profit. While $5 may seem like a good amount in absolute terms, the percentage return is what really matters.

Now, if someone follows the same strategy with a $10 balance, the profit would be much smaller in dollar terms, even if the percentage return is the same. This is why people say that a larger amount helps. In reality, though, the level of risk you take depends on the percentage of your capital you risk on each trade, not just the size of your account.

As for your last question, if possible, investing is generally better than trading. Investing usually involves lower risk and can provide decent returns over the long term.

How much capital should be used, it totally depends on a trader. For example: For a new trader it is better to use a small amount of capital and for an experienced trader using more money is not a problem. Moreover, if you are a new trader, use a small amount of capital for learning. or experience yourself through a demo account. Without experience, it is never possible to achieve desired results in trading in the long term. So move towards the goal with less risk.

As a newbies in trading you can’t just ask someone the amount you can start with in trading because know one will know how much you can risk when trading as your onw plan you can chose what amount you can afford to risk when trading.

Why will anyone even ask about the amount they are suppose to use in starting trading? It’s everyone’s decision to make, because everyone doesn’t earn the same amount of money, and what everyone can risk when trading is completely different. You know your financial capacity, so you should know the amount which you can risk whenever you are trading.

It’s being said multiple times that we should trade with any amount we can afford to lose, don’t trade just trade with big amount of money, because you see people trading with similar amount of money, don’t compare yourself with anyone.

We can not speak for our selves because how fingers are not equal and it has to be that what can you afford, its simple spend what you know you can afford and aside that you can even start with small amount for those that are new because when you start with a huge amount you will end up losing more so it is even better for you to just start small even if the existing knowledge is already there and there way that you need to improve your self before you go hard that is how it is suppose to be it is not something you will want to rush into it takes time to become a master.

Beginner traders are always expected to lose their first trade, and blow out their first account due to lack of knowledge and skills, and lack of experience that will result to commit consistent mistakes and losses. But eventually, a trader learned in time, yes it certainly takes time.

The thing is, you don't have to risk bigger capital when you are still starting to trade. Start trading with small amount, so that if you lose, it will never be painful losses. But you will surely learn from your losses, until you develop your own skills and strategies in trading that work for you, and gradually increase your trading capital so that you will also increase your future income.

Trading is risky, that's already given. That's why we don't have to rush in trading and end up with expected liquidation.

Their's no particular amount that's fixed to start trading, to began your trading journey as a beginner, i think that you have to invest with what you can afford to lose, because in trading if you don't master the skills very well, you can be losing more often in trading...That's why before someone venture into trading it requires the person to learn and understand the basic strategies of trading, so that person will not be losing more often...

Most times, some traders doesn't properly understand the basic part of trading and they jump into trading due few time observing trading tutorials in social media....That's one of the factors that makes unexperienced traders to constantly losing in trading....

I agree that, large capitals play some reasonable role in a success of a trade because in most cases, i a trader is not really greedy and decides to g into a trade with huge capital t chase little profits, it is very much possible to make god profits in a very short period of time but the problem always is that, most inexperienced traders are always very greedy and always want to make some incredible profits from a single trade even without a proper risk management skill which is totally wrong.

i would say that, with a proper risk management, any amount can possibly stay longer in a trade.

See, trading is very risky and you mentioned capital, protecting this capital is the most difficult. Capital is protected very strictly by experienced traders, at a time like this, if you want to protect capital, then you need to be more experienced in trading and have the ability to tolerate the pain of losing money sufficiently.
If you cannot control your emotions of losing money, then you can also get addicted to trading, just like gambling, just like people get addicted to losing money in gambling, you can face such a situation in trading. So you should trade carefully, as you mentioned, this can only be done by an experienced trader.

Is hard for us to say the reasonable amount we can use for trading because our cash flow is not the same and also the level of our trading decipline, management and skills differs, this also can affects the amount that can be considered reasonable to trade with, for me personally I don't out certain figure to trade but I make sure not to trade with amount that is above 10% of my monthly income, so what determined the exact amount I trade with is the amount that I have as income at the end of the month it doesn't have specific amount so my trading budget keep changing even though I accrue not more than 10% into for trading.

[mirakal]

If trading success is only limited to those who can afford to put up bigger amount of capital, then why they are still losing? And won't even last for months and everything they have get liquidated. That only means profits aren't guaranteed with big or small capital.

What will guarantee you to become successful and long term trader is your ability and strategies that will make you sustain your trades, not on how much you are willing to lose. Attitudes also matter the most, if you are impatient and just here for quick profits, trading will only disappoint you. You will never fit in trading, even in investing alone.

You posted that what makes most people to be profitable in trading, know that most traders are losing. Trade with the amount of money that you can afford to lose.

Capital is very important in trading, but with high experience because a trader can lose thousands or millions of dollars within a short period of time.

Make sure you start small, make money first with the small amount of money. You can gradually increase your trading capital if you are making money from trading than losing, but be very careful.

Trading is as risky as gambling.

As a beginner in trading, you should not easily jump into being a profitable trader, because obviously everyone is losing in trading, most particularly for those who only trade without initial background and studies. Think first of how to be sustainable, because that will motivate you more to develop what's best in trading.

Capital is important, but the amount of capital does not make you guaranteed profitable. A lot of big time traders still lose in the end, because they just trade with their money, they don't trade using their abilities and capacities as a trader.

The reasonable amount to start trading is the amount you can afford to lose so the amount will be differ from one to another and there is no right amount to start trading. If you can afford and risks $50 only, that is the reasonable amount to trading.

For traders that are well experienced in trading they may not want to use anything less than $200 or let's say $100 because they actually know what they want to target and they understand the best strategies to apply in their trade but for a beginner you don't encourage them to use big capital to fund their accounts to trade, newbies may have be able to afford the amount you mentioned even more but because you you don't want them to lose it all it is better they begin with an amount lower than $50 so that they do not lose it once.

Acquiring basic knowledge and understanding of trading is also important, though you are right of all you have stated but getting to understand what trading is, will help one to know how to go about it, which as a beginner will have to start with an amount they can afford to lose, as the market is not stable and if one is able to master risks management with the experience they are acquiring, it will be of help to keep them long enough.
