Building a live account - $1,000 to more than $3,000,000 in 30 years

The purpose of this thread is to showcase the progress of a $1,000 live account as I attempt to grow it into more than $3,000,000 in 30 years.

As additional money may be added to the live account from time to time, the measure of success will be the Value Added Monthly Index (“VAMI”) which tracks the growth of the initial $1,000 deposit.

Making a 30 year commitment to this website is more laughable than the amount starting at $4059, and not the $1,000 the thread purports to be trading.

So you started this thread and immediately have an 80% losing percentage but $3,059 profit?

 

Based on his equity curve the R multiple appears to be very large. One win makes up for many losses.

 

do you think I will still be on ET in the next 30 months let alone 30 years....that was a good laugh..thanks

 

1000$ today=3,000,000 in 30 years in real terms

I thought that was an april fools joke in the OP, but you actually posted again and that market moving account has posted some gains.

Well allright then, setting apppointment in outlook calendar for 1 April 2042... shit I have a conflict, I'll be buying my island that day- catch you on the 4th for drinks and celebration?

 

I'm not at all shocked that 95% of traders lose.

 

this site is 10+ year old good chance it will be around for at least another 20 years.
