I suspect you can make 20% per month on lower executable size methods. Intraday methods particularly. I know people that do it. But can only do it on a small amount. You can make 10% per month though easily on sizes up to $10B.

I would think 20% a month is a bit much. Id like to see 5-10%
So many in the Commercial section want to make me rich! :o

Yes it is. But it's not guaranteed, and it's hard.

There is nothing like impossible for a good skilled Forex trader, I know so many pro traders personally, they are leading their life by luxurious life style although they started their trading very ordinarily; that’s the power of Forex business! By the way, now my average monthly outcome is 10-15%, and I am really working hard to improve it!

everything is possible but don’t expect it every month. Just go with the market don’t put numbers as goals cause it will only do harm to you and your account.

Yes it is, very much. It's just that it's hard to get it every month, so just trade the best you can, and don't focus on any numbers, that will make more psychological pressure on you, which will just make trading more difficult. Be grateful to what market gives you.

anything is possible, the question is what is possible with YOU?
Exactly it is! There have so many pro traders who are making such a good amount of money without any technical error! Fact is, you have to build a good trading skill first! Starting live trading with particular trading target would be costly! So, make a decent target in order to your trading performances!

I think the issue with most forex traders is that they see this market as unique in relation to the share trading system, which is valid. Be that as it may, they concentrate on the wrong contrast - returns. While it is genuine your CAD/JPY exchange may bring that adjust up 8% this week, it could simply do the inverse. The part an excessive number of don't liken to stocks, much like stocks, monetary standards go here and there too. The distinction here is you are losing 8-10 bucks a pip, which in the master plan, a pip is nothing. It won't make that six pack of Labbatt's cost substantially more, for instance.

20% of what? trading capital is one thing but leverage if another.
Can we compare 20 % of 10000,- trading capital,if we using different leverage?
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't,you're right. H.F.

Some time of the trading game ? Possible. You of course means will be there a month when you will make 20% ? Yes, maybe it will be. But I know you want more, every month like 20%. But it's way too volatile game for that. So probably not. Not stable business give you 20%

Basically; traders need to understand first their own trading ability; anything like unrealistic target would be painful for sure.
