but sometimes everything is so obvious from the outside. Your problem is not in capital, but in another You hit the psychology nail on the head.
lets not kid ourselves this game is gambling, but its all about approaching probabilities correctly. When you risk money, fake or real you risk small. When you lose consistently you need to stop, step back and review your entries and start questioning your reasons for entering at those locations. Is it perception (psychology)or is it knowledge or is it both? Markets will find your weakness, you have to look in word to find the answer.
You have the same problem i had when i started out. (This just requires the correct amount of coaching). Many years back i had a joint account with an Israeli friend and he would say things that i just couldn't wrap my head around and to this day they make my head spin when i think back. The timing of his suggestions was right on, it was the emotions that kept me from acting on his logic.
You may be doing just that but its hard to say? only because peoples ego's gets in there way. Knowledge and perception is key. If you have the right balance of those two than you got the right stuff.
