Quote from leorc:
The problem is I have too little capital to trade with. What do I do from here? 
Don't even think of trading cash until your house is in order.
1. Get out of debt.
2. Put a year of emergency living money in the bank, including all expenses.
3. Put a year of food in storage, including weapons to protect it.
4. If you cannot accomplish the above, or cannot wait for the above, do not trade PERIOD.
5. Continue sim trading your box. Likely, you will see it break, and will need to fix it. This is good for you, as it will break again in the future. But keep sim trading, or you will lose track of the market and how it affects your box.
6. After the above reserves are in place, build your trading account to twice the level your research tells you are needed with past drawdowns in mind, the lowest low taking no more than 25% of your account. Remember I said build it to
double. Then, trade small, as in ONE. I don't care if it is profitable at one. Trade at one, then two, then three, etc.
If you are considering trading your box to get out of debt or to feed yourself, emotions are against you, and you are betting against yourself.
