From $5000 to Trading for a Living. Is it possible to?

Hi all, This is my trading journal. Welcome!

So this guy traded from $2000 to more than $100,000 in about 6 months, if you were as good as him, then $5000 should be $250,000 in half year, that should make you a comfortable living. But again, most of people would lose $5000 in a week, a month, or a year .
Can $10000 be turned into one million in a year? Sure . it has been done and will be done again and again for sure.

It can be done, even lower in the futures market. How? Try to get trades that are 70$-120$ stops. Have a loss limit of $300/day. Know the difference between ranges and trends spatially and add a resource or resources to confirm. Know a few reversal patterns/signals and implement them in your system. Try this for about a year. Once you have trained your moto skills, thinking process and "what is real" on that specific TimeFrame, then move on to $500 Stop Loss Limit. This is if you are using one TF. GoodLuck .
