If you could do that for 10 years that would be a lot.
But even if you have a large account balance and trade with small amount, it is still hard to gain 2% steady growth rate every month. your trading volume may not proportional to your account balance for all your trade, especially when your account balance growth a lot, that means everytime when you lose some pips with the volume proportional to your account balance, you will need to gain more pips with the volume proportional at a lower account balance.
but your stragety is good, play safe...
It's possible (example is me). Calculate your lot size and target pips according to you current balance.
If you are long term trader you should set your mind for 1500 pips playground.

Always you need to observe the market in different timeframe even you have no open trade.

It is about time that people here should be reminded of these two questions:

1. Can your account absorb 50 consecutive losses? If yes, with the remaining balance in your account, can you make up for this loss in 50 or so consecutive winners?

2. How much percentage of the account one should risk per trade to have at least 50% balance remaining intact after these 50 consecutive losses?

Note: Maximum number of consecutive losses I ever sustained are 52 (this means not a single winner in 52 trades all losers) and I am not a lousy trader.

One time i had 24 out of 25 losers. it was unreal. i still shiver thinking about it. it's almost impossible. flip a coin and fair better. the 24th trade that was a winner was for almost 200 pips, but at this time i was forced to trade at .10 a pip. lol. unreal.

Ans: For this, you need to practice in demo account again. I won't say you are not a good trader. But you need to find out the reason of your losses and study yourself more deeply.

2. How much percentage of the account one should risk per trade to have at least 50% balance remaining intact after these 50 consecutive losses?
Ans: It's depending how many pips you may loose if the pair go against your order. I recommend to calculate your 50% balance with 2000 pips (EURUSD). And playground will be 1200-1500 pips.

This calculation is worthless for small balance.

It looks like, but I still have doubts if this double pink line has become a support yet.
