I tried my hands on trading, and the profit I made was less than $20. I was still scared when I had to watch my money just move up and down like that. I want to sit back and learn all the skills involved before I venture into it again.
You should learn more to earn more, $20 is just a small for now but at least you are profitable.
Being scared should be eliminated, learn to control your emotion, once you are here you already accepted the risk of losing, and it's a mind game, so play the right way.
