I actually want to keep it simple for now, I have no intentions of winning the market. Simply want to make some money off my savings PS I already have some safe options locked in, sparing some extra dough for trading.
I'm unsure what you meant by less complex stuff. Python is more than capable for Machine Learning, Time series stuff. If you are referring to HFT, you probably need lower languages like C++ and definitely not MT4.
For long term savings I have invested in ETFs, that’s what I was saying. I definitely don’t intend to use my savings chunk while I am still learning more about this segment of the market.

How much your account will grow will depend on your initial investment and the amount of risk you are ready to take. And as far as taking risk is concerned, it’s better to be mentally prepared to lose all of your money. So put at stake only as much as you are ready to lose. No more or no less. No more for obvious reasons that you don’t want to be in a state where you are financially straining yourself. No less because you should be in it to get the most out of every trade. And that will only come from a level of calculated risk that you take.
