50-100% monthly returns

  1. it isn't about things like %return or winning% or other things newbies fixate on.

    It is about Risk-Adjusted Return. What are his system stats? 99% drawdown? 1.03 profit factor? etc. etc.?

    And a friend of a friend waving 50% returns with broker statements or even online would not be very impressive. You would be amazed at how things can be faked, or just demo, etc.

    As above, why would anyone take money out with those kind of returns, as you could soon repay the US national debt?

  3. Dude, you're a joke.

    So he's doing 50% of his $50k capital each month. $25k a month.

    I guess that's a little more down to earth. 20k withdrawls would be about right. Forex there's no reason to have more in your account than you need. Especially with any of these risky bucketshops.

    12% per week, 2 years, 10K starting capital will give you 1,314,239,021 dollars. You understand that right?

    In five years you could have 62,616,082,677,207,260.

    though its really a little less than that cause you probably have to withdraw a billion or so to spend
