One thing I also like, and something I recommend you do, is to open different trading accounts: 1 big account, 2 mediums, and 1 small.
The bigger account should be spot. Buy every major dip.
The medium account should be used when we have A+ trades.
The small account is your main account, and this is where most trades will happen.
Start with $100. If you don't have that much, start with $10. Make this into $1000 or $100. But do this by following a system, and treat them well. Do not gamble, take only good trades.
When you have made your first $100 or $1000, you send this money to your large account but leave $100 or $10. Then we repeat. Over and over again until you have grown your account and feel comfortable to take even bigger trades and have a bigger account.
This takes more time, obviously, but it's the right way to do it in my opinion. Don't think, "What can I make today or even this month?" but rather, "What should my goal for this year be?"
If you can finish this account 2-3 times per month, it adds up in a year. And the next year will be even better because now you have more experience and even more money.
