I'd suggest no more than 1% max until you *know* what you are doing and have proved it with a nicely accelerating equity curve. This will not happen real fast. It is the psychological aspect that will get ya. It is just my opinion. If you go live, ...

nasir - — Nasir - can I suggest a different way to say it? It will help. "I had a good month, made a couple of mistakes, but I did not lose - I am at break even." That is the truth and a better way to voice it. It is positive and will keep you ...

Now is not the time to quit. Go to demo mode. AND GO to the first 100 pages of the James16 thread. They discuss PA which is a perfect reflection of what order flow is doing. There are no secrets.
