Do you often find that with the small trading account, you have difficulty placing trades on charts like daily or weekly or monthly charts that need a bigger stop loss size, and therefore we cannot take the trades. If that's you. Listen up, I've got some great tips and information to share with you. Let's get into it right now. Hey there, Traders! Andrew here, the Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 584. Do you have a small trading account? So I want to talk about people with small trading accounts because a lot of the times I hear people say to me, look, I can't take those longer time frame charts. I can't take trades on a daily chart or weekly chart. So monthly charts, because I don't have a big enough account size to allow for a big stop loss. And unfortunately, it's a bit of a common misconception that people think they cannot trade on those higher time frame charts, which, by the way, are quite often some of the better trades to take because of the quality of the trades. And the people think they cannot trade them because they require too big a stop loss, and their account is not big enough to allow for that. Understanding risk and your lot size correctly. So the issue actually comes down to understanding risk and understanding how to calculate your stop loss correctly. Because most people don't do that. A lot of people say, I'm just going to put on 0.1 lots or 1.0 lots or 0.5, whatever it might be. They just put the same lot size on every trade. And if you do that, the problem is, is either, you know, one that when it gets stopped out the, stop loss amount, it's going to be way too much. And so therefore it could argue lots of smaller gains. And that again comes down to not understanding how to calculate your losses correctly. Now to help you out I'm going to put a link here which you'll find to my free lot size calculator. You can download my MT4 or MT5 lot size calculator. It's a script. Put it on your charts and you'll use it all the time and it will massively help you. But the issue becomes, let's say, you have a monthly chart trade. It requires looking to make up some numbers at 200 pips, stop loss and someone goes, oh, I can't take it because my account is not big enough. You probably can. You know, you might end up needing, let's say, a 0.01 lot size, but you can still take the trade. And the reason it needs to be a bigger stop loss is because it's all relative to the candle size in the market movement at the time. Now you take that down to a, let's say, a one hour chart trade, where obviously the movement is a lot smaller and the stop loss needs to be a lot tighter. It might again, for ease of numbers, let's say it has a ten pips. Sorry, at 20 pips. Stop loss. The monthly chart has 200 pips. Stop loss. The, our chart has a 20 pips. Stop loss. All it means is on your one hour chart, you could probably going to be trading with ten times the, the lot size. The risk is still the same. So you're not trading at ten times the risk. The risk in terms of the percentage of your account remains the same. It's just the lot size might be 0.1. Lots on your one hour chart, whereas on your monthly chart it might be 0.01 lots.
