In margin trading, you have to be incredibly disciplined. As you realize profits, you should scale them into your account step by step, increasing your margin and pushing your liquidation price farther away. That’s one of the most important principles of long-term survival. At the same time, when you truly trust a position, don’t be afraid to hold it. If necessary, hold it for a week. It’s far better to make $5,000 from one high-conviction trade than to jump between ten different positions trying to make $50 each.
