Forex Options Trading - Undercapitalization is Suicide in the Forex Business!

Any successful trader with experience and expertise in the currency trading would advise potential traders to go have a big amount of capital or go home. This is a fact of life that a would-be trader needs to face in order to become a success in the forex business. Otherwise, undercapitalization could lead him to financial suicide. He will just be wasting his money. Although it is true that brokers allow anybody to open a forex trading account with a minimum deposit of just $250, it does not mean that you should dive in and take a chance. Those who do clearly do not have complete understanding of how forex works.

To be clearer, let us consider this fact: many professional traders trade a standard lot for every $50k in their trading account, which means they trade one mini lot for each $5k in their forex trading account when they traded a mini account. The point here is, if an experienced pro like that trade that way, then why would an inexperienced one expect to succeed by trading only $100,000 standard lot with a mere $2k account or $10,000 mini lots with $250.

As a concerned advice from a professional trader, do not open small standard or mini trading accounts. The foremost reason a trader fails in the forex business is because he is undercapitalized from the beginning. The recommended start up capital is a minimum of $100k to open a standard account, $10k to open a mini forex account or a $1k to open a micro account. If you already have $70,000, do not allow yourself to become a failure, just wait awhile until to already raised the $20k more before you start trading.
