Well leverage is relative, you can only trade within your means

 

Perhaps (near)optimal position sizing will help.

I don't have a problem with trading strategy

 

So you're already using near-optimal position sizing?

 

Found this old post of yours:

"Your trading to much size, u should be risking only 1-5% of your capital on any given trade"

But what if the math says your optimal position size is closer to 10%? Or higher? Then that's just money you're leaving on the table, dude.

Leverage is dangerous. Using (near)optimal position size is merely prudent.

 

Bringing up my old posts doesn't really achieve anything as I've moved on

 

So you're already using near-optimal position sizing?

 

I use leverage, trade sometimes with about %30 of my total account

 

As stated by someone else...patience is all you need.

Another solution is get a job during your none trading hours and then use that income to plug back into available trading capital. Also, you can sell high value items (e.g. eBay) you can go without for awhile and then use the funds to increase your trading capital.

The latter above someone here at ET did just that and raised and additional £10k.

 

In that case, you can ask Mike Ashley. I'm sure he won't mind promoting a fellow jordie. Besides, it'll only be chump change for him
