    I had to skip forward to 11:56 in this 13:06 video before he finally got to the point, which was that he shoots for 20% to 30% per year...

  3. For the first 14 years I traded, I made nothing (year over year). For the past 14 years, I have made between 11% and 155%. Last year, I made 147%. This year, so far, I have made 70%, which will equate to over 150% annually.

    That's easy.The 10X.
    Problem is when you feel cocky and go all in.
    And lose.
    Then their 7%/year looks pretty damn good.
    Until you re-fund the account that is... and not worry about yesterday.
    "This time is different".
    :D

    Wow such a simple fix!
    Do you day trade them or hold longer, all based on technical analysis?

  9. All based on technical analysis - price action. Mostly triple ETFs. Since June, 2019, I have tweeted all my trades BEFORE I did them. My Twitter handle is @RandomFour. I hold most trades 1-4 weeks. Longest trade in the past year was 25 days. Shortest trade was one day. My profit since June, 2020 is 69%.
