I will share my personal experience, but if this works fine with me this doesn’t mean it will work with you.
My strategy generates around 2% to 5% every month based on the rules that I follow below, which can be applied to some strategies:
- Lets consider you have an account with 10,000$
- My risk reward ration is 1:2
- My risk percentage on every trade is 0.5% (half percent) of the total account. (example; I lose 50$ and win 100$)
- Use lot size calculator Position Size Calculator - BabyPips.com to make the calculation for each trade.
- Only discipline will make you profitable.
- If you want to gamble, open another account and leave this one
