You are in trading to make money, not to avoid losses
Replied 1 month ago -
If you are the kind of trader who always like to be right then this might lead you to commit the "sin of early entry" where you enter a trade prematurely because you want to set a tight stop loss. By doing this, you achieve quite the opposite as your stop loss will be hit easily when you fall for a fakeout.

The market tends to reveal you to yourself. The market is a revealer. Trading is all about the discovery of yourself.

how do i spot volatility on charts without using indicators?
Replied 1 month ago -
When volatility is high, your broker could reduce leverage. On the charts you also see unusually tall candlesticks

The smaller the candles, the bigger the lot size
Replied 1 month ago -
Small or short looking candles are a sign of low volatility most times it is when the market is expecting a news release that you see short candles forming everywhere. For me i would not trade when I see short candles all over the place, but I agree with you- trading a bigger lot size will mean even with the short candles you can still make good money as price moves.

How much does it require to earn more profit
Replied 2 months ago -
100k USD? The answer to your question depends on the leverage your broker allows for the instrument you are trading. Brokers give the highest leverage to major currency pairs like EUR/USD. So, lets say your broker allows you a leverage of 1:2000 you will require about $50k USD account balance to be able to make 100k USD profit

What is the best leverage to use in forex for a $10 account balance?
Replied 3 months ago -
$10 is barely enough to open a reasonable lot size so you will ne needing high leverage like 1:2000 if you want to trade 0.02 lot size of a major fx pair

does the spread affect where i can set my stop loss?
Replied 3 months ago -
When spread is high, the distance between bid and ask price becomes wider. If you took a short position like in the image i attched, then watch the ask price line because once it reaches your stop loss you will be kicked out of the market. Also if you are long, always watch the bid price line as you will be kicked out of the market when it reaches your stop loss.
