Develop a Disciplined

The Mini account can be a useful asset in assisting traders to cultivate a disciplined trading strategy without focusing on P/L. When trading larger volumes on the standard account, traders with smaller account balances tend to watch their equity fluctuate and base trading decisions on emotional reactions to these fluctuations. For example, traders tend to resist closing-out trades at a loss, using the rationale that the market will turn around. Traders also tend to immediately take their profits when the market is moving in their direction, rather than maximizing their gains by letting their profits run.
