The meaning of risk. What does risk mean to you?

Seed money is easy these days. Sell some old baseball cards or take out an unsecured loan at less than 5%. There has never been a better time to use leverage. It's not responsible but trying to get rich within a short time frame never is.

Edit: I'm talking about 5 figures(or lower 6) and growing from there

You must be a better talker than I am. I know no one who is willing to lend 5 figures to someone with no visible means of support.

Unfortunately I never was a collector and have very few assets I'm willing to part with.
That being said the likelihood of my blowing up my account is very very slim. I have defined and know how to control my risk.

I've used Lightstream for auto loans multiple times. I do have excellent credit and two salaries in the household so I get their best rate and never been turned down for the amount I request. For the auto loans they don't even contact the dealership or private party seller. They don't get the title. The loan money appears in your account the next day and you can do as you wish with it.

Try getting a loan with no salaries and your only income from trading.
 
Trading risk is a certain percentage of the deposit that I can lose in a day. This is my daily stop loss. If I reach this amount, my trading stops. Thus, I share the risks and increase the percentage of profit.
 
Risk for me means the possibility of losing - but I also see it as a normal part of trading and while it is not nice, you need to accept it and work against it mentally and trhough your careful analyses.
 
if we talk about risk in trading, then it has always been there and will always be there, it can be reduced only by your confidence in the decisions made, therefore work more and gain experience
