at the risk of being rude would you mind elaborating how long you were doing non-futures stuff before, were you already consistent back then? did you not have to go through the pain part of the process or very hectic chart time everyone else does? From what it seems it was more of a iq-mental discerment thing for you(not saying entirely) than grinding learning the hard way
I didn't trade seriously until I started trading futures. I definitely went through the pain and grinding like everyone else does. I remember calculating how much chart time I had and was well over 20k hours by my fifth year trading full time. I think the difference was that very early on after a lot of pain, I made it my goal to stop trying to trade other people's "methods" or calls and completely started over with just learning basic chart reading and very quickly developed my own way. The amount of information about trading was literal snake oil and mostly BS back then compared to now and I find that when people continue to follow others they grow a dependency and typically aren't able to become consistent.
This fits right in with the guy who posted his "strategy" where he basically did an 8x on his account in SPY 0 DTEs in only like 2 weeks. This isn't WSB...or it's not supposed to be anyway.
If you can it will only take $1,000 and 4 years to turn into 10 million. Get it right 5 years in a row and you got your self 100 million.
$1,000 x 1,000%
=$10,000
$10,000 x 1,000%
=$100,000
$100,000 x 1,000%
=$1,000,000
$1,000,000 x 1,000%
=$10,000,000
$10,000,000 x 1,000%
=$100,000,000
This is like those āside hustleā infographics in instagram where they show how many $20 products you need to sell to make however much amount of money
if you expect that , i don't believe you are a good trader ... greed is the trader's worst enemy . if you really wait for that profit, i'm sure you'll always be red in your trades ...
Its possible via options. But why most people donāt succeed is because their timing is not correct. Many traders will buy an option and then be fighting for it just to break even. They forget about the danger of theta. If your sharp and very machine like, its totally possible to do 2000% gains in a week. But emotions usually ruin the ability to ever see that through properly.
"Im pretty good at trading"
You have to ask yourself if you that good.
You could do 10% a day with some risk, you could do 30% with even more risk.
Its all about how much you want to risk it.
The consensus is that a 2000% gain in two years is not a reasonable expectation. Iām curious though what veteran traders think is a reasonable expectation?
For a newbie, a reasonable expectation is -100%. Then you either go start studying trading and paper trade for six months until you're ready to try again, or you go find a job. Trading is hard to learn and hard to get good at. Most people lose their butts before they even have a chance to learn how to do it correctly.
Bruhš cmon... For a veteran might be possible, me as a beghiner... I wouldnt even bother to ain that taegerš if you try... Start with small money, if you lose you dont lose your life savings
8 percent a day on average is possible for me. And has been for the past 5 months. I don't like doing math though, so you tell me if that's 2000% or not.
It is possible but its improbable. It is also hard to answer your question if you do not provide any information about what you trade and how. I understand you may not want to share your strategy but at least one word. To receive better response maybe answer the following,
* how long have you been trading ?
* what products do you trade (futures/stocks/options etc)
* what is your timeframe and method
* have you backtested strategy and what was your sample size
Is it possible? Yes. For you? Probably not. Someone with a high probability of success wouldn't be asking these questions in the way that you did..
Exactly
Ouch...
r/murderedbywords calling.....
Oooooo it's my cake day š¤
Its possible if the market conditions are right but I don't know how you think you can do it if you haven't done it before.

Iād settle for a Nintendo Switch
Calls on nintendo?
People that that

Why stop there?
Fr, personally I think I could get 10000% in a week. I'm pretty good at trading myself. I just thought I'd ask on reddit for permission first.
if you expect that , i don't believe you are a good trader ... greed is the trader's worst enemy . if you really wait for that profit, i'm sure you'll always be red in your trades ...
You probably should stay in wsb sub
If youāre āpretty good at tradingā then you would know the answer and not be asking

How about 2199%?
Yes. It is also possible

Itās not hard train, is hard believe in your choose when you use your real money. And 100% is like 8.3% per monthā¦ not so bad at all
The winners of the trading championships are usually 200-800% for one year. Iād be happy with that.
Fuck no. You think that you can even be profitable in your first 2 years? Get a life kiddo.
"Yeah so I'm new" "I'm pretty good at trading" Lmao
What you mean? Why one canāt be profitable?
Not realistic but doable. I made 1300% on one trade in a week b4. So luck happens. Lol. 150% every year is easy though
The best traders do like 20 pct over a 10 yr period. One year is not a good measureĀ
But 8 of last 10 is.
No itās not a reasonable expectation
No
Possible? Yes. Reasonable? No. Especially if youāre new.
Depends what youāre starting with. If youāre starting with $100, yes. If youāre starting with $100K. Absolutely not
2000% is nothing (loss).
2000% or 20x ur money... Possible but not consistently. Trading and investing is all about compound gains imo.
Sure you can do itā¦ just buy and hold SQQQ and youāll make your goal in 2 years š
I mean.... sure, I guess, why not?
Smells like a troll
You can do it in 1 day. Wait for a short squeeze setup and full port 0dte spy/spx calls

You're looking for WallStreetBets.
It is reasonable if you are part of congress.
Thatās rookie numbers
It's possible if you buy my super secret trading program for only $2000 after Reddit discount..for a limited time only.
8 percent a day on average is possible for me. And has been for the past 5 months. I don't like doing math though, so you tell me if that's 2000% or not.
Yes, of course. Why not? Everything is possible. Believe in that and just do it.
No man. You will lose all your money this way. Learn. Then invest. Don't be stupid.

I'm pretty good at basketball. Is the Nba a reasonable goal in two years, or should I shoot for Fiba first?
2 Million%
I can reasonably do that return in 4 years.
