The best way to trade forex is through the use of moving averages. Moving averages will reveal to you the behaviour of traders. If you study moving averages well, you will hardly lose in the forex market.

I dont know what she wants to achieve.. Forex is not scrabble but if she can gamble, she may be lucky to hit 40$ but she should not complain when the 5$ dissappears.

Interesting comments here. Everyone is considering the monetary aspect, no one is considering the health aspect.

How can a newbie just invest 44k in something she knows little about? That's high blood pressure. grin

You guys can go ahead and start with all your savings; as for me, 5$ is a good start. Thank you grin

Why not just send 5 people N500 each, the blessings they will shower on you we pave better ways for you than throwing it away. At 0.01 lot, one open negative trade will OFF it. Why the waste. If its chicken change, dash it out... If you want to practice forex use demo

OP please don't listen to anyone here, Yeah they might be highly experienced and profitable but no regard them. If they want to give you advice, They'll render it. The way I see it, they just discouraging you. Even if u blow the acct, take it as a lesson. Back test and improve on your errors.
Only risk 1% of ur acct which is 0.053$. Quite unrealistic but know it. You make error, learn from it. Take emotions out if it. You should never get emotional but try to use an amount which on a normal basis you'd feel if u lost, that's how u improve ur psychology to remove emotions out of it if at all you loose the money. No trader now that is profitable didn't make a mistake, infact they made many mistakes. I've seen traders that become profitable(I mean $14000 monthly profitable) just after 2yrs because they are in hands of good mentors and they put the work in and have stable mentality and psychology, while some take decades before becomingly profitable (like notatribalist said it took him 6yrs).

So miss OP, focus on ur psychology, learn, read books and make mistakes, back test and improve. No let another person success measure yours. Them done do their own mistake and have put the work and time in to improve. Na your time now, get it

Knowing that 0.01 is the minimum lot and cannot carry 5$, she is practically gambling. A pro needs 200$ for 0.01 lot to be successful. Babara pls show ur equity...

look at your advice, risking 1% of $5 is what?

Better you open a look for brokers that allow trading in cent. You will never learn anything with $5 account

I know that, That's why I said it's quite unrealistic to risk 1% of $5. Normally, traders are advised to risk 1-1.5% of their acct I.e on a 1000$ acct, risk no more than $10. I usually risk 10% tho I'm still learning on a demo. Everyone with their principles.. if it works, stick to it. If it fail, backtest and improve
