I started with $2500 and worked it to a relaxed upper 6 figures/year in five years. Those saying low amounts don't work, trader fees will kill you (lol), or trade execution will let you down (up to you to choose the right brokerage) is only bitter that they can't seem to get this game right. Period.

[@icyboy771z]

thats amazing, what method do u use? Trend following? I did research on those who made the most returns are all trend followers.

[@Max0r847]

The fees do make repositioning and size management possibly too expensive on a small account, when its easy to get in and out with tight stops and stay in the green or slight red until the next move, but the fees just add up. Big accounts can easily absorb fees and allow the trader to have great mobility between wins to avoid holding through pain and fully optmize size management. The small accounts just force much higher quality trades, but that pays off on the back end

[@jakubvalenta5403]

You have to sít on your hands when the oportunity in not there. And when it comes along, you have to push. So you must be patient, disciplined and brave. Then and only then you can turn small account into big money.

[@subharajlaxmi7393]

very rightly said

[@goodfty]

I love you

[@Veslanjejezivot]

I managed to go from $200 account size to more than $120,000 in less than a year. I've traded crypto though and there was a huge bull run so I was a bit lucky I guess. Real skill is to manage and keep that kind of money in a bear market. Patience and discipline is everything. Love your channel. Greetings from Croatia

[@icyboy771z]

thats amazing regardless whether its crypto. but hope u retain that money in this crypto bear market

[@XTRADERXNYC]

1-2% a week and I’m done Small losses Break even Small wins Big wins My strategy

[@wavemaker2077]

As long as you are winning more than losing, then there is no problem scaling up your lots. Just make sure that you are already consistent in your results.

[@bhp000]

That’s up to the trader. Us high risk/aggressive traders make more. Meanwhile the rest think we blow accounts and that’s not the case. We take lesser trades if anything because we look for the sweetest moves to attack.

[@DogeToshiBakaMoto]

Every newbie trader needs to hear this

[@ttraderjim]

"Trade your way to financial freedom" by Van K. Tharp. Helped me a lot. Similar theme to this video but more depth.

[@MrNintoku]

I usually start small on smaller companies and as I learn more about them and see success with them I put more size on them. Established companies like Twitter I will put larger size of them.

[@sparcx86channel42]

If I could anything positive in the end of month I'd be very glad because its not easy as people think

[@icyboy771z]

How much do traders make is based on how much capital they have. typically it can be a few% of their capital per annum to 100++% a year

[@AwesomeMetalBands]

Very very honest. No BS like most of the other videos on KZbin.

[@sirstoic1187]

I think I'm the only one who is actually not trying to get rich.im good with 80k a year

[@krist6074]

Thank you for sharing this!!

[@FuturesBrizio]

For a Forex trader how much lot size would you take per trade on average for a $10,000 account? Just curious what everyone thinks.

[@felipefigueiralima7748]

How can you talk about trading earnings and do not mention percentage traders do monthly or risk per trade? Too vague..

[@PandorasBox2]

very helpful video, thou why someone done 2k to 50k can't take to 200k ?! or you meant in 1 fiscal year

[@equinox126]

what sort of markets do you mean? do you trade futures or plain stocks/equities?

[@unknownks9223]

I agree with this information, if you are skilled to trade you can throw money management out of the window 😴

[@BassicVIC]

until you’re wiped out when you least expect it.

[@simonc772]

Cheers Mark, I am at this stage now....:)

[@idbountyhunter]

4:08 can anyone tell me what he said (prop etc...) Thank you

[@chriswalker83cw]

i started with around 7k pushed it up to £115k in a month .I did this with plus 500, who gave me 300/1 leverage which helps alot (as long as things go your way). The Indices push this month is where I made my money

[@chriswalker83cw]

O and no experience, and did it all on my phone. saw the trend and went for it, as soon as I had good profit I put it back into the position. experimental growth with 300/1 leverage it doesn't take long to make quite big money . Again as long as things go your way.

[@kimwarburton8490]

DeRiot I know someone who went from 200 euros to 20k his 1st year n then made 80k 2nd year. Then he admits he went stupid with it n dropped down to 12k in 3rd year. He has been an inventor n business entrepreneur for decades mind

[@kyronne1]

DeRiot he isn't lying I 4x my test account in a few hours on one of these trades. I don't think it's a good strategy for the long term though.

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

300/1 leverage and it is only a matter of time before you lose the lot.

[@oswaldokatz2523]

I think 2-6% monthly is very realistic.

[@aluisious]

6% a month is very realistic for a couple of months, then when you blow out your account because you're making oversized, overrisked bets, you'll be making 0% for years while you rebuild your capital.

[@kirkarnold9023]

Good honest answer.

[@joaoteixeira835]

When it comes to pure Spread Betting traders unfortunately there’s not many examples out there that we can look up to or learn from. Is that cause there aren’t many people that only trade on Spread Betting platforms? Can you give us examples of traders you know that have any videos or any kind of public material? Forex, Crypto, Commodities etc have loads of examples of successful people but Spread Betting unfortunately nothing.

[@AJ-wp3pw]

This was not helpful. You should tell us what percent the median trader makes per year, and also that the top 10% make. This video is just chatter and noise.

[@Stock_1calls]

Every broker is now scam . So scared to trade

[@ukspreadbetting]

Trade with UK regulated ones and you will 'probably' be safe.

[@cerebrumexcrement]

Great answer.

[@nextbillspencer]

Working flat out n made a hundred quid 😆 🍻

[@M.G.R...]

Risk tolerant

[@PassportG]

Excellent video. 👍💯

[@danielgorringe2311]

1000 pound to 250 a month, so 25% return a month? Really? How? I know you talk about risk reward but you'd have to be correctly performing some ridiculous option trades or something, even Amazon just returned 30% in the last year

[@gogol8409]

it is 10000 capital buddy.

[@aluisious]

That's still 30% annually, which is still not realistic. Anyone pulling in 30% a year for 2-3 years is not trading their capital anymore, they're making hundreds of thousands a year trading professionally for a hedge fund or something of the like.

[@Mlogan11]

He said in the vid do look at it as an ROI, but putting capital to work. You are not buying a position and sitting on it for a year like an investor- so you should expect to be earning far more than investment rates.

[@glenwoodfirewood]

It takes work.. Remember we are working in between the predictable (mostly) patterns made by either humans or man made design buy programs. I prefer 5 - 10% growth a month. Good portfolio management, a good eye and even better timing. Oh... Yeah throw the emotion out the emotion out the window.

[@princemichael647]

Honestly Every Nooby trader should trade NFP

[@jasperplaisier9964]

Great, take care bye bye!!

[@BiggestGP]

Dont listen to this guy

[@dimitriosdesmos4699]

I make 50K everyday, is that alot?

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

Peasant ; )

[@BadmanGee7]

really? whats the capital of the account?.

[@camrenwilliams4641]

hello

[@BassicVIC]

What about taxes? Anyone?

[@ukspreadbetting]

What about them? What's so wrong with paying taxes on your trading gains? The good thing about paying taxes is that you also get to offset losses against future gains...

[@BassicVIC]

UKspreadbetting Thank you. But with my question I didn’t mean there’s anything wrong with paying taxes on gains. I’m all for paying taxes and complying with everything that’s required. What I mean is how should I declare those gains and how much percentage is tax on gains, et cetera... ? Thank you. I very much appreciate every video of yours. You are a great mentor.

[@ukspreadbetting]

Depends where you live (country) and what medium you are using to trade (cfds, spread betting, shares, futures?). About the percentage tax on gains in your country you either have to ask a government official in your location or a local broker. A local accountant could also come in handy. I trade frequently so I declare my gains as income. People who trade very infrequently could declare their gains as capital gains.

[@aluisious]

LOL..."you have to have the right conditions for your style of trading." Someone with a $2k account trying to trade up to multiples of that amount doesn't have a style of trading. They're a newb, they don't know shit from shinola, they don't know when conditions are favorable. Anyone with a $2k account that doesn't have that for some odd reason, like they really have a $100k account but liked the name of a brokerage on the side of a bus and decided to open this tiny new one, IS GOING TO BLOW OUT EVERY TIME TRYING TO BE AGGRESSIVE. Realistically, on a $2k account, you're going to either blow out immediately, slowly die from transaction fees, or just be lucky as hell and blow out later because nothing was learned anyway. If all you have is $2k, expect to lose it, and consider it a fee for self-education. Don't have the goal of trading up to $20k or whatever, that's a stupid goal, and clearly unrealistic. If you can't figure out how it's unrealistic, just go buy $2k of booze at the club, you might get a BJ from a golddigger dumber than you. And don't even "blah blah papertrading" me. Papertrading is cute, and in no way prepares you for what you're going to experience when you see your money on the line. Then there's order execution, where papertrading is totally irrelevant. You're going to lose your $2k, get used to the fact. If you want to trade, consider it your right of passage. You're going to lose more than that too, so be ready.

[@joseg.9850]

Im starting with a 2k account ,risking only 1% aiming for 2rs a trade , lets see what your saying is true 😀

[@lucazanetti8168]

Let's put this way: a beginner opening a first 2k trading account should not have any kind of expectation but, after a 8-10 months if still alive, could try to start some calculations. While on the other hand, I personally don't see particular reasons why an experienced and serious trader would not be able to turn a 2k account quite quickly to a 50k one. Maybe not in a 1 month or 2 that's for sure maybe will take some time to do that. Actually with a 2k account I can easily get an even week or a 200 to 800 week. Rich by the end of the year? nope, just imposing me to tighten my own rules and be more accurate on what and why I do.

[@Gforever80]

is obvious that people who watch this videos are amateurs... it's all about skills... if you trade for money is clearly that you will not make money... or you will make and lose it at some point!! trade like a sport or game... concentrate on getting 90% of trades right... and you can make whatever money you want... I have a friend that has a kid (12 or 13y old) he is crazy about charts and reading them and all that, he learn patterns and structure, price action, candlesticks, you name it he knows all.... his father (my friend) showed me his results and i was just blown away of the results... he has maybe 1 or 2 loss out of 10 trades!!! his returns are unreal... but he is afraid to let him trade for real yet because of the risk he is taking, of course... i said wtf?... he is genius... he could make so much money... Why he has such a success? because for him is a game! he just taking trading like a game, and he doesn't think about risk and money management and stuff... he just plays with charts and numbers, for him money is like a scoreboard, just like a video-game! And i think that's the mindset of a winning trader... as long as you think about money and risk and all this psychological stuff that for sure will affect your trading decisions... you will never grow that 2k into 50k, if you take it like a game... and just get good at it... learn the charts, learn the patterns and all that stuff well... manage to get your trades to 80-90% success rate... don't think about money at all, then you can make serious money!! but as an adult and not having a kid's mind is very hard to do, almost impossible!

[@cdowis]

I know a trader with 90% win rate and still losing money. It's all about money management

[@milessheppardson3008]

I can see why 90% of traders just don’t get it, you are just making KZbin videos this is BS

[@falloverpete]

I would like to see the other side of this; "how much can traders lose"? to balance things out.
