Exactly. One is supposed to lose to give way for the other to win, and that is not only for trading but even in gambling as well. If all traders are going to lose or win, I think the motivation will not be as high like now.
This is true, the market is with losers if there are winners and vice versa. And that means that whenever we win, there are losers on the other side that are probably on a rage because they've lost their trades.
However, one thing is certain, if you don’t want to trade and lose a huge amount, then don’t trade with a large capital. You can still be at loss but you can always chose to reduced or minimize your loss.
The belief that the bigger capital, bigger profit is true but the risk is also higher. Compared to having an affordable amount to trade and then you can take it once you lose is just fine. But see to it whatever works for you must be done.
