With Forex trading, risk management is really important. In fact, your most important job as a trader is to manage and preserve your capital. The Forex market can often be unpredictable, and anything, from geopolitics, surprise news releases, and market sentiment can quickly move prices before you can react to these movements.

Although the concept of leverage is relatively easy to grasp, it is very often misused. It is essential for beginners to understand how it increases their risk in Forex trading and how to use it responsibly.
