Generally speaking, there are two ways to practice successful money management. A trader can take many frequent small stops and try to harvest profits from the few large winning trades, or a trader can choose to go for many small squirrel-like gains and take infrequent but large stops in the hope the many small profits will outweigh the few large losses. The first method generates many minor instances of psychological pain, but it produces a few major moments of ecstasy. On the other hand, the second strategy offers many minor instances of joy, but at the expense of experiencing a few very nasty psychological hits. With this wide-stop approach, it is not unusual to lose a week or even a month's worth of profits in one or two trades. (For further reading, see Introduction To Types Of Trading: Swing Trades.)
To a large extent, the method you choose depends on your personality; it is part of the process of discovery for each trader. One of the great benefits of the FX market is that it can accommodate both styles equally, without any additional cost to the retail trader. Since FX is a spread-based market, the cost of each transaction is the same, regardless of the size of any given trader's position. For example, in EUR/USD, most traders would encounter a 3 pip spread equal to the cost of 3/100th of 1% of the underlying position. This cost will be uniform, in percentage terms, whether the trader wants to deal in 100-unit lots or one million-unit lots of the currency. For example, if the trader wanted to use 10,000-unit lots, the spread would amount to $3, but for the same trade using only 100-unit lots, the spread would be a mere $0.03. Contrast that with the stock market where, for example, a commission on 100 shares or 1,000 shares of a $20 stock may be fixed at $40, making the effective cost of transaction 2% in the case of 100 shares, but only 0.2% in the case of 1,000 shares. This type of variability makes it very hard for smaller traders in the equity market to scale into positions, as commissions heavily skew costs against them. However, FX traders have the benefit of uniform pricing and can practice any style of money management they choose without concern about variable transaction costs. |

IN forex, you also have to calculate any lots, fund, margin, and how much you can make orders. I always use this to trade in Mayzus, Liteforex, FBS, and some other broker. |

Money management in Forex is the most important thing. Without money management, you cannot survive in the market even a week. Money management strategies should be the first thing to learn before going for trade. Then come the profit and loss factors. Surviving in the market is the key and profit is its outcome. SO manage your money and don't spend too much money on a single trade not more than 3 percent of your current capital.

Yes, the right money management is so very crucial and the good part is that it doesn’t require any skills or certificate of being a genius. Instead, you need COMMON SENSE to be able to do right money management.
And I do purely that but more so in Stocks with AT&T stock the favorite for me. I not only ensure I play it out to the range I can afford but also in with following AT&T stock forecast, so all these factors are IDEAL for me to bring great rewards. |

Yes. It's true. Money management and using proper lotteries are very important. Newcomers usually don't know this, so I recommend using a FreshForex broker, as their account manager always helps their traders make money.

There is no way to make money from forex trading if you don't follow money management rules. Of course you can make some quick bucks with gambling but sustainable strategy requires the rules which limit your losses otherwise it's just a matter of time to lose all.
