$100,000 is the smallest dealing size that I know of in forex(It has only
recently dropped to this). The forex market is quite volatile. For an
account this small you would need to do very short term trading, and cut
losses very quickly. I would not recommend trading with an account this size
if you have not traded in forex before.
