Every experienced trader will say the money management in trading is the important thing to keep your account alive and for my experience in trading I lose many accounts die first to bad money management and second for greed and getting more and more money, after all this bad experiences and when I keep money management in my eyes now I get my money adjusted with my capital and I required for every trader to give the most important attention for money management.
The rules for money management for me:
1. Make goals that could actually be achieved with your skill level
2. Always trade with a stop loss
3. Never over trade your account
4. Trust your indicators
5. Always protect profits
6. Trade with investment capital, not grocery money
and for you what is your experience with money management ?
You have a nice statement there. Cheers.
1. It's mandatory to set a goal so that people can be inspired to achieved what must to achieved. Applied seriousness so that goal will be met. After reaching a certain goal, take it to the next level. It's not forever that we will just stick to what can we achieved by our skill level. Upgrade and improved it.
2. People must study this. Sometimes it was beneficial but sometimes not necessary.
3. Same idea with no. 2.
4. Also trust your judgement based on analyzation. People's other view about the trade must just taken as reference. Final output will be on ourself.
5. Maintained. It's a must.
6. Definitely agree.
