I'm going to talk about how you can trade successfully if you only have a small live trading account. Let's talk about that a more right now. Hi there, Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 572. How to trade professionally if you have a small trading account? I want to talk about a topic that affects a lot of you out there. And it's all about how do you trade properly and professionally. If you only have a very small trading account, you see, the issue is that a small account, depending on who you are and your financial circumstances, may be a lot of money for you. And you become nervous. You're not sure, how to trade. You're fearful of losing money and you feel it's not a sufficiently big enough account to make any sufficient and realistic money out of that account. Dangers of gambling instead of trading. On the other hand, you might be looking at trading, and you might find that a small account just play money for you.
