A lot and at once or the way to the financial abyss - trading for the whole deposit
Your broker gives you the opportunity to use different leverage, and he does not force you to use it to the maximum. However, for every second person who comes to , to try the maximum leverage in action is almost mandatory. And the worst thing is that many not only try it, but start to trade that way all the time!
Lots and lots at once
The reason for trading the entire deposit is desire to earn a lot and in a very short period of time. And for such experimenters it is not immediately clear that the probability of losing all the money in such trading is very high. Although some traders do realize it, but they can't do anything about it. Especially if a rather decent amount of money has been lost before. One wants to wager the lost sum faster, so one trades the whole sum at once.
Trading for the entire deposit is really the road to the abyss. And the greatest danger lies not so much in the total loss of money as in the perpetuation of the wrong method of capital management. In view of the fact that there is no money management at all, this will lead to the fact that such a trader will NEVER be successful on the market! No matter how hard he tries, nothing will change, neither on the number of years of trading, nor on the amount of deposit. This is a very sad picture...
On top of that trading for the whole deposit will lead to a lot of nervous tension. And the more of the deposit will be under attack, the more psychology will be pressed! And this in turn will lead to psychological illness!
So how do you fight the urge to trade with all your money?
You won't believe it, but the fight is quite simple, the only question is the trader's thick-skinnedness. It is enough to lose all the money, and to lose exactly that much, when the trader begins to think about the expediency of such trading. There are also exceptions: there is a category of traders with a pronounced predisposition for gambling. For them trading the whole deposit is the way to get the adrenaline. They replenish the account, then they drain it, risking everything at once, then they do it all over again. Unfortunately, there's nothing to be done here...
