Why do traders recommend risking only 2% per trade?

On every website, forum and all the friends of mine on facebook that are trading from quite some time always say that one must trade with risking only 2% of his capital. Why is it so? Why not 5% or 10%, there are traders that trade risking more than 2% of their account size but my question is why this number is so famous and advisable?

is maamlay mien her kisi ke ray different ho gi. but jo muje lagta he. Risk kuch percent zarur hota he. wo is waja se ke koi b trader jub koi trade lagata he to wo market ko dekh ker lagata he. Ur Risk ka dar is waja se rehta he. ke sometime jub news wagera aati hein to market kisi waqt b apna rukh badal skti he. jese ke hum ne ak trade Sell ki lagayi ur wo hamien profit de rahi he. lekin jese hi new aati he market Buy per chali jati he. so is baat ka risk hota he 100% koi b sure ur yakeen se nahi keh skta he G market sell per hi jaye g . ya buy per

Risk management is an important factor of strategy chalked out by the trader. Let us take the example of a trader with 100 $ in his account and let us also take the worst example that the trader also looses all trades. Now a trader with 2% risk management target can set 50 trades and with 5% risk target the same trader can set only 20 trades. In this case the trader is out of the trading after 20 trades and with the earlier 2% target he is out after 50 trades. The longer the trader is trading. the greater are the chances are there for his profiting. Lower percentage of risk management is meant that the trader should remain in trading for longer duration and avail more chances to profit the business.

bohat saare professionals forex mein just 2% per trade risk lene ko is liye hi prefer karte hain kiunke ye business waise hi bohat ziyada risky hai aur is mein agar ap ziyada risk lenge to apko is mein ziyada nuqsan hosakta hai.
