If you want to be a trader and just started trading, I suggest you to start with less money..Its almost impossible to start earning money initially..it is inevitabel to lose..Its like prepaid recharge..we might earn on some days..but in a span of time, everyone loses money initially..We should try to gain more knowledge with less money..and don't trade with inconsitent amounts..say Today trading with 10k and tomorrow with 1L and next with 10L..because If our stocks falls 5%, we lose 500, 5000 and 50000..losing 500 may not be a matter to many people..5k matters to some..50k matters to some more..Even though the fall is the same 5%, our mind processes it in 3 different ways on 3 different days because of the amount of money we are losing..The increase has to be gradual so that we can process it better.
