Be very selective/ frugal and take only sure trades. Once you've grown the account to $500. Withdraw $250 and continue trading risk free. Very good advice. $1000 account shld be for when you are certain of your strategy. Deposit the $250 and trade the very small units till you get a good grounding. Best of luck. The higher the amount in any market, the easier to lose! Why? Emotions, emotions, emotions...
Try losing $12,000 vs $500. Your eyebrows sweat as panic central magnifies on huge losses.
And the red colour shows up as your margin sinks below 50% @SufficientlyP
