All members are very welcome to cast their vote. For instance, if your capital committed to trading (part of which can be outside of your broker's account) is 100k and your average daily returns (or rather 90% percentile) are in the range of -5.0% to 5.0% then that is the poll option you can select. The intention is to see what kind of their capital value fluctuations are most traders happy to accept.
Depends what you mean by 'range'. Do you want the absolute maximum and minimum I'd expect to see? [answer: more than 5%] Do you want the 1 standard deviation move (moves typical around two thirds of the time)? [answer: around 1.5% - which is not an option in your poll]. Or something in between? GAT
±0.25% is dreamy. ±0.5% is probably mode. ±1.0% is edge of comfort. ±2.0% is all too common. ≥3.0% finds me changing laundry.
There's an element of selection-bias in the question, isn't there? Very few people whose accounts can swing +/- 5% per day will see it: they didn't survive in the markets and are no longer here.
There is no necessarily right, or wrong, answer, We all take the risk/reward scenario we wish to play in, You get what you pay for basically. Everything is priced accordingly. Everything in the market, and in life, is directly proportional to risk and reward. It's hard, if not impossible, to break that skew curve, or Law. But mine is way higher than the "-5.0 to 5.0%" range,
