I make about 500 pips per week on average (some weeks it goes to about 1200 pips) but since my account is still somewhat small, I only make around 5000$ per week.
is it already 1st of April, again?
there is always, always another trade!!

I am a scalper and I always have to depend on scalping due to my small balance , my monthly target on just 25-30% by using my trading approach , sometimes I can achieve it easily but sometimes fall a great trouble . because scalping can be profitable but always contains huge risk

I'm currently trying an MT4 platform, following some master accounts, and I'm getting 9% profit in day trading. It's a recent experiment though...
Being consistent is the main challenge here! I seem, 9-10% is a very good profit ratio! I started my live trading with only 5% target, yes I worked for only 5% in the 1st year of my live trading!

Totally pointless to make average estimations for income or to set monthly targets as the market is not consistent so you cannot maintain consistent profit levels. We all are just trying to make the most of the ever-changing conjuncture.

11-15% is really better if it is consistent , by the way , what was your trading strategy and trading plan ?

If I manage to make 5% - 8% profit per month I am exceptionally pleased. The truth is, however, that there are some months I make a lot less. I've been getting a little more consistent over the past year or so, but I feel I still have a lot to learn.

I use to trade during financial events, does not have a lot of free time on my hands to use a lot of technical indicators. I used to work with the ichimoku cloud and it showed some very good results but consumed a lot of time.

As I mentioned, no consistence profit for me, sometimes its very good and sometimes not, as long as you manage your funds correctly you can feel safe (normally).

I see how you feel and I feel the same. I use to think like that earlier yet this most noticeably awful objective that you stated, well it works for me and from my accomplished If I am ready to make 5% consistently or possibly 10% consistently, hell on the off chance that I could, that would be pleasant. The ROI will compound. From my perspectives that an extraordinary broker makes steady ROI consistently and not shooting high then by the following month lose everything. I know it may take to long to achieve where we need in any case consider this, what business makes 200% benefit a month right away when it just recently build up? Developing and supporting the record gradually and painstakingly is much rationale and sound good to me.

I use all of trading systems in order to your list! In addition, I use a fixed risk reward ratio in my trading! On the other hand, I don’t count the number of my monthly trade, in average I get 10% monthly return here!

Not much but 4% to 5% of my investment is my profit. I do not want so much right now. It begins so well for me.
5% monthly return means 60% as yearly return; it’s a decent yearly return! By the way, nice to know you are making money from this financial market in your beginning stage of trading; keep learning and earn more!

5% monthly it's not worth spending time behind PC. 100k capital and make 5000 monthly?
If you'd have 100K if you'd live is US,you can buy used truck(18 wheeler) for 50K,put another 50k in bank,or invest home somehow and you'd be still making more then 5% monthly,but you'd have to work.
So what's the point of making 5%???
With 5000,- you can risk 3% per trade with 40 pips stop loss it's about 3.75 per trade.
To make 600 pips per month you need about 5 trades per week on 1hrs charts,to by safe.It's about 45% of my capital,using 1:200 leverage.
It's not that hard.You don't have to push yourself to very trade.You can cherry pick them,to eliminated bad trades.
The question is,is it enough money for you?
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't,you're right. H.F.

I think, consistency is the key! If you can make even 2% monthly e end of the day, it would be enough for sure.

The ROI will compound. Example:- $1000 with 5% a month in 12 month that is about 80% a year = $1818 a year $1000 with 10% a month in 12 month that is about 230% a year = $3291 a year From my points of view that a great trader makes consistent ROI every month and not shooting high then...
Most of my group of traders earn between achieve 5% - 7% per month of their Equity. The secret is to trade with multiple strategy's which almost no trader here mentions. I trade with about 6 strategy's and I will be adding more next year. The point I am making is a good strategy may achieve around 50-80 return a year of a $10K account. Therefore you need quite a few good strategy's to make a living.
Attempting to make a lot of money of just 1 strategy is fairy tale stuff.

making money form trading is a great skill , and for that money management is most important, generally we think only good knowledge and experience can bring good result in a month , but in practical in spite of having most powerful analyzing trade knowledge no way to earn smart amount in a month if you dont know how to manage money accurately.

The percentage is quite achievable. Try hard and success will come eventually.
