yes I agree, I think it depends trading plan and money management as well as each trader your capital so that you can determine the appropriate initial capital ok.
good job guys.

correct because I also never find a trader willing to take high risks by using capital sedikit.mereka want to use 1 lot using funds $ 30 which of course it is very risky to get a margin call.dan quickly this should not be done by a novice, except if they want to spend their money

i think if you are a new Trader and your have only 100$ investment then time you can do trade only 0.01 lot size its batter for the new comer because the big size give us big profit and big loses so i can say its batter. its my personal say.

as a beginner we must be carefull when we trade so when we use the smallest lot like 0.01 can help us to minimize the risk when the bad things happen , i think that for beginner must use small lot with good capital and when we have experience we can take the risk.

Its depends on you account type and on your capital but I will say that the lowest lot size is much better even if you are not newbies. Me I'm trading for nine months straight now and believe me I do earn good amount each month and no matter what I do I make sure that I can earn good amount of money always. I'm just hoping that in the long run we can see good earning in forex and have huge capital. in this way we can increase our lot size but for now. I just keep it as it is.

I think 0.01 or 0.1 what is your idea.If you are a beginner I think you must invest about $50.(If you are a expert trader you can start $10)Then you will be able to earn $2-$5 per day.then try to turn your $50 into $100(Don't withdraw your money yet)After that You can use $100 as your capital and then withdraw your all profits.

i think it must be the mini one 0.1 cause simply that the best lot volume that you can easy trade with it with good margin and can make good profit too from it and the risk about using it is not so big to fear so it's most suitable lot for the newbies and the experienced also.

Many Brokers have included the Mini-Size Lots in their Trading Terminals so that our investment controls less Forex money and the benefit is that there is less probability that we will lose our investments too rapidly. In each trade we lose, only a fraction of our investment will be lost. However, we do not gain profits as per a standard lot size either.

the best way to decide size of the lot is we calculateit using our money management,such as if we would to like risk 1-3% per trades,then we calculate it with the capital that we have and set the Stop Loss at about 1-3% of our capital,and for newbie in my opinion it the best way to trade.

For a start, it is advisable to go with small lot sizes. This is safe for even the experienced trader. Because bad money management dont spare even someone who is not a beginner. If you have bad money management you would have bad trading results. So as much as it can affect newbies, it can also affect traders that have taken years in the market and are still yet to make it. I would if i were to trade as a beginner or any level trade with lot size 0.1 if i am trading an account of say 100 dollars using a 1.400 leverage.

It depends on your equity and how much you want to risk of it per trade. If your equity is high then you can trade big lot. But you should not risk more than 5% of your equity.
