I can know were your coming from.
Nano in my speech = 1 penny per pip. right?
Micros are a coaching tool, if you're in a position were u cant afford to drop 100$ then I say if you are trading?
To risk a penny does not have any emotional impact on a trader. If it means nothing to risk 40 pennies on a trade what is the difference trading a demonion?
I exchanged minis for many years did nothing to help my trading. Once I stored up a decent account and moved to IB I was pressured into 80K min lots (yes I scalp and I never a stop wider then 10 pips) but if you trade with the mini attitude I had of, it's only 20$ you then see your account vanish. Should I make a mistake in IB it is felt by me. I trade 85k to 100k lots and it forces me to really consider what I'm about to perform.
To tell you the truth it has really helped my trading eventually become constant, I really ask why if I don't take this trade vs allows take and see what happens.
I've this opinion off my encounters
please new traders do not rush out and do so, this helped me. Micros are sufficient to understand on.
