Normal account journal.
The mistakes I made with trading such a small account:
- Over leveraging
- Not having enough patience, as such a small capital takes A LOT of patience.
- Need to stay focused with the % in stead of absolute numbers. Someone with only this amount of money to trade with, can not be aggressive. That is the mindset I need to implement here.
If you are trading under $100, each trade should like $1-5.
Watch your risk control and learn bankroll management.
This yes. Small accounts make me want to trade very aggressively I noticed. It is a bad habit.
Indeed! Let’s see what happens.
Here we go again.
Currently has €9,52. Will use this to start a new small account challenge!
Selling EURUSD here.
GBPUSD - sell
Bit of a riskier entry, yet worth the risk-to-reward. I am looking for a continuation down of the W1 downtrend.

Very hard to start so small
Yet it teaches you a lot about yourself as a trader
For me the issue is more of ensuring I can practice good risk management and not take more than the 1% risk I use. If I can then it should in theory be no different from starting with 218.6 or 2186 euros.
