Beginning with a micro account does not mean that you can skip over the demo stage. It is important to start to know both of your system and your broker’s platform in demo mode before going live. To get the most from a micro currency exchange account it is important to have a system that doesn’t involve enormous risks. Usually you will be using high leverage on the account or trading more than one lot, so you maximize the amount you can make from winning trades.
Therefore you want a system that only makes little losses. This will wipe out a trader using maximum leverage in a micro account. Instead, look for a system with more stable results. Naturally, no forex system is completely foreseeable, but statistically a tiny account balance will have a better chance of surviving that way.
When you are making steady profits with a micro account you can steadily add more funds to your balance and increase the amount of lots that you commit in each trade, till eventually you are prepared to move to a mini foreign exchange lot size which is ten times larger.
