    go from 30k to 1 mln in 6 months

    Successful traders, what did you do to increase your performance stats?

    Took out a loan to transition to full-time trading. 24 years old.

    Took out a loan to transition to full-time trading. 24 years old.

    If you can get these daily return and keep your loss within 10%, you will be able to pay back your loan sooner than you hope. 3500, 7000, 14000, 28000, 56000, a couple more doubling and you will be liberated from the debt and sailing towards your land of financial freedom.
