The best money management is to use the capital, which investors cannot lose when taking that money to bet, often brokers have this information below their web site.

Well, i am not a full time trader. I am under 30 & in the quarter way in my career now. I trade small accounts to mainly get myself aquinted at the moment. For now i see this as a secondary source of income & backup for future.

I use few simple strategies to enter trades, which i developed from my past years experiences. IMHO the whole success depends on the risk management or more specificly money management in trading. Not only in trading but also in life, the better risk manager we are the better we are than others. I solely trade forex only, to be specific 7 USD major pairs. Because of spreads, volatility, liquidity etc. I allocate x% of capital at risk, which is combined of two trades primary & emergency backup. So my each trades consist of an emergency backup trade to cover up the loss if the primary trades hit the Stoploss. In plain English which is basically stop & reverse trade. Why i do this because when i did backtest my strategies i saw all the trades that hits Stoploss goes to a minimum certain amount of pips if they hit Stoploss. Not always but most time, so i utilize that opportunity to cover the loss. There are trades where both primary and emergency hits the Stoploss. But as this both trades risk are x% pre-determined, i lose only that x% risk. My RRR is aimed at more than 2.5 times the risk. Hitting that high RRR at high winrate is very difficult. For which, i take partial close of trades at different levels which is calculated based on percent of pips risked for that particular trade. Once a certain percent of pips in profit trade is BE+1 & take first partial profit. This way, i secure optimum profit from the trade. I aim for optimum profit not maximum. If i wait for trade to hit TP it will give me more than 2.5 RRR but if i bank profits at different levels i would be able to make one point something RRR if trade goes to full TP, since it is always uncertain whether trade will hit TP, its always best to bank as much profits possible from the trade IMHO. A pip profit taken or closed is a pip realized profit in your wallet, a floating equity does nothing but giving hope. Its not early closing a trade, its backtested to determine at which levels it will be optimum profit. Using small percentage of risk keeps DD small & reasonable. Most importantly keeps my mind calm & focused. Any particular trade is not important here but as a whole. The law of large numbers play always. I just have to follow the rule of engagement.

Of course, you're right about that. But how to properly invest your money is a good question. Unfortunately, when investing in any business, as an investor, you will always have the risk of losing all of your capital.

Everyone has their own risk threshold and look at it differently. My attitude is that all the money you send to your trading account is at risk and so it should be. If you are not prepared to risk it all then don't send it. Keep some of it in your bank earning some interest.
Of course we all want to minimise any losses and they way I do that is to place multiple small bets on different currency pairs/ indeces/comodities. If you place 20 bets on a random basis the chances of getting them all wrong is 1,000,000 : 1
If you have $10,000 in your account risking 5000 spread over 20 bets seems a sensible use of funds.
The game we are all playing is a numbers game which is why I play with a large number of positions rather than staking it all on just 1 or 2 which is very dangerous. But if you are only going to risk $50 at a time why on earth deposit 10k with your broker.

I'm using simple money management rules:

1. Fixed risk per trade by using stoploss.
2. Sequence of N loss trades in a row is a signal to stop trading this day.
3. Daily loss X% leads to stop trading this day.
4. Trading lot is % of equity, but limited by Risk per trade rule.
5. Take profit is not fixed, using traling instead.
6. Always start with min possible trading lot and raise ste by step.
