I was thinking in staying in the game the hole day to take more pips, but I felt I was getting too greedy. So, I went shopping instead.

Today Another 15% account up.

I got that 15% today because I went in with double lot size.

I NOW feel I need to learn more about money management otherwise I may end up taking too long to grow the account or worse, blow the account.

Anyone has tips or URLs about money management?

Thanks in advance.

Remember that 1% per day does stupid things to your account in only a couple of years.

indeed, understand compounding (1% per day will add a zero to your balance in a year)

instead of doubling, start small and when in profit (sl 2 breakeven) add at certain place to your position when price action is going in your direction.
follow the tip of bredin.(--> MO's thread)

further i remember 3clipz referred to chapter 7 (for MM) of the following book:
COME INTO MY TRADING ROOM
A Complete Guide to Trading
Dr. Alexander Elder
