I personally invest my money to buy or sell more or less. Usually I don't like to withdraw my money, to then spend it on unnecessary things. I withdraw my money when am bounced.
I used to take that approach, now I like to spend it on whatever. Might as well enjoy ourself sometimes.
I take 20% of any profits and reinvest the rest. The money taken out is useful to show that there is some tangible reward to trading but - at the same time - if you are in it for the long haul then you have to reinvest the majority of your money.
The money I earn I have it aside for holidays or something like that, an unexpected expense, I don't make that much money to invest it.
Wow, that seems some nice maths you have there Josh. What do you do with the profits and how do you reinvest?
Since times have been tough...{although the climate is changing...the sun is shining }...i have to say the little i have been earning i have been squeezing every single penny to set a meal on the table plus necessities around the house, am yet to start saving or investing but soon i'll be able to do so...still optimistic
My earnings usually are just enough to face expenses, so that's what I do and when I can I do a special program if I can afford it, nothing too much though.
Regarding withdrawing funds from my forex account; I typically take enough to treat myself to a caramel macchiato at Starbucks (less than $5.00). The lion share gets reinvested. As my account grows, the types of treats I might enjoy will become more extravagant. However, they will never cost more than perhaps 0.5% of my assets under management. That's what compounding is all about.
I spent some portion of my earned money in family expense and I save the rest of the earning. Eurotrader offers high leverage and narrow trading spread in majority of their pairs. The broker provides high security of funding.
