THE HARDEST PART OF TRADING WITH SMALL CAPITAL.
Sometimes, the problem isn't that we don't know where to place our stop-loss. The problem is that we don't have money we're comfortable losing.
We enter a trade hoping to win because every dollar matters. We don't have that extra capital that we can comfortably put at risk and accept losing if the market proves our analysis wrong.
When the trade approaches our stop-loss, fear kicks in.
We start moving the stop-loss, closing positions too early, or holding losing trades longer than we should.
Why? Because losing that money hurts more than it should.
But here's the uncomfortable truth:
The market doesn't know how much we need that money. It won't change direction because we cannot afford to lose.
Trading requires capital that allows us to accept risk without compromising our financial stability.
If losing your planned stop-loss would affect your basic needs, perhaps that position is too large, or that money shouldn't be in the market in the first place.
Sometimes, the best trade is no trade at all.
We don't just need money to enter the market. We need money we can afford to put at risk.
What do you think? Is this one of the biggest challenges facing traders with small capital?
