Develop a Disciplined Trading Strategy
Ask any successful trader and they will tell you that the key to trading success is discipline. Everyone has heard the expression “cut your losses and let your profits run” yet how many traders actually practice this? Many traders will hold on to losses hoping it will reverse eventually, only to see the loss get progressively larger.
These “irrational” trading decisions are based on emotional reactions to fluctuating profits and losses, a common pitfall for new traders. Losses can AND WILL occur. A trader's ability to limit his losses is just as important (or even more important) than determining entry points. Because the pip value on the Mini Account is just $1 per pip, traders can focus on developing a disciplined trading strategy, basing decisions on pip movement and market conditions NOT P/L.


Mini Account 
Mini accounts are ideal for traders who have practiced trading with a demo account, and would like to gain more experience before opening a standard Island Forex trading account. Mini accounts allow traders to become more familiar and comfortable trading with GFT’s award-winning software, DealBook® 360, without risking large amounts of capital. Due to the smaller lot sizes, lower minimum account deposit requirements and the ability use higher leverage, mini accounts allow novice forex traders to develop trading strategies and build confidence in the market. With available leverage of up to 400:1, you can trade more efficiently by getting one of the highest leverage ratios in the forex market through Island Forex Trading.

High Level of Risk
Retail off-exchange forex trading carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The possibility exists that you could lose all of your initial investment and be liable for additional losses. Therefore, you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. Be aware of all the risks associated with forex trading and make an informed decision after consulting with your financial adviser and considering your own financial situation and objectives.
