About me , i said " no" margin like a killer. You can win one or two times but only alit bit greedy . I will take all your money away. Im already in that situation before

Margin is not that bad though as long as the trader is not greedy. Most times if you are good trader and you still make do with a very reasonable leverage level, you should not get caught up in a very bad trade without at least getting out and losing just few.

However, I have never been a fan of margin trading, considering it is more or less a huge gamble which could make you loses so much, and I would rather trade more like investing in the normal way.

But even if you are not greedy, what happens when there is sudden spike when you are doing shorts, or what if price flash crash when you are doing longs? It is very tricky because you always psychologically look at stop losses as percentage of price, but with margin, this stop loss can lose you 5% or 10% easy, just for being there when orders all trigger at spikes and crashes.

No point in margin, just be patient,,, it is truly a gamble. Win big, lose bigger.
