Is that the new math?Quote from NeoRio1:
180 days equals to around 118 trading days.
In order to turn $2,500 into 1 million you have have to make around 850%.
In order to make 850% in 118 trading days you would have to make 7.2% everyday.
All i can say to that is HAHAAHHAHAHHHHAAAAAHHAHAHA.
Have fun with your attention getting thread.

$2,500 increased by 850% amounts to only $23,750. On the other hand, $2,500 to $1 Million is an increase of 39,900%. Perhaps a small difference for a big thinker like you, but worth noting nonetheless.
As for your reference to 7.2% per day to make an annual return of 850%, you are accounting for absolutely no compounding. This means that the trade size is not to increase at all as the account grows by your prescribed 7.2% per day. This on top of the 850% return being a preposterously false assumption on the overall return required to reach $1 Million.
No doubt, you will learn all this is high school. In the meantime, I suggest you limit your participation to the Politics forum, where you regularly pass off your ignorance as "informed opinion."

Any perceptive reader of his superfluous and abundant posts in the P&R forum would readily have discerned that the individual has trouble differentiating between 'then' and 'than'. No need to go any further.
Not unlike the budding race car driver who decides to floor the accelerator and hold it there until he either wins the race or crashes and burns. Hmm, I wonder if there is a market for asbestos-lined trading jackets...Quote from Loki:

May I remind you that anyone who accepts that story at face is, at best, uninformed (sorry, surf, I can't give you the benefit of the doubt on this one) or a fool who will surely get what the market has waiting for him?Quote from marketsurfer:
