look bud you will get all kinds of answers, some people will swear that 5000% is their norm some people will say that more than 30% is pure luck and rubbish others will say that in long term there ARE NO GAINS But you know what a really good trader will do at least 100% every 6 months but usually more ask me how I know
this type of question (and answer) merely sets one up to limit themselves. i don't care what some traders think is reasonable or not i trade my setups. i can be reasonably sure that if i thought X% was the most i could reasonably make that this would affect my trading . it will, whether you realize it or not trading highly leveraged futures, i do not even care what people think . i know what i HAVE done. i also know that this is not the theoretical maximum, so i don't begin to limit myself with that sort of mindset.
So you trade without having goals? I could never do that. It's like stepping under center without a play in mind....
