I'm also beginner in trading. I trade since this summer and I lost about $90 on $120 account. Recently I make $20 on last $34.
Throughout my journey in trading, I read Jack Schwager's book, watched many educational videos on YouTube, read many articles on the educational sections of CEX exchanges, and also talked with many traders. It seems to me that I understand enough about technical analysis, trading systems and trader psychology. But I'm at a dead end and don't know what to do next. Other traders advised me to just trade, but I think that over time I will lose my remaining $45, and demo trading does not bring such emotions and I don’t want to try hard when trading it
Good to see that you have at least trying to learn about trading some of US they even don't know the name of Technical Analysis and what is psychology effect on trading. Anyway even then you have a acquire some knowledge about trading I will say that there is still the risks so in this that much fund what you can afford to lose. I can also start with Bitcoin long term strategy like DCA method which is with low risk
