Imagine yourself being thrown on a desert island. You have that small deposit in your account. Once a day, during the year, you should pay for at least $100, to get out. If your not or blow your deposit out - your being left there on your own (which means - DEAD). Now, under those conditions, ask yourself what setup, indicator, timeframe, etc, etc... you`d start to trade right away to achieve that?Write down your first thought.
There are actually, but the problem is most will not be able to do it, no matter how easy it is - reason is obvious to those who know, a mystery to those who do not! J_S
imo, anyone who is in that kind of situation while still thinking about how to do trading well should be ... Anyone else who suggests the above-mentioned person not to learn how to survive well but to learn how to do trading well ...
I don't think your idea works. There were no shortcuts on that. All you need to do is to stay quick and learn. Work harder!
Under those extreme conditions...I'd be a diversified Buy-N-Hold investor in quality companies. You have to be very risk averse in this situation...because the downside... is death. ...kind of a horrible trading analogy though, if that's the point you're trying to emphasise...
