Is the minimum enough to start trading?
A minimum deposit opens the account; it does not make a small account safe. With leverage, a small balance can be closed out by a short move against you. Eightcap publishes that 77.97% of its retail CFD accounts lose money. Practise on a demo account first and work out your risk per trade with the position size calculator.
