Quote from overload:

As a trader, per year, what is your goal to make (percentage-wise)?

10%?

20%?

50%

100%

More than 100%?

How much should a trader expect to earn a year %-wise?

education??? experienced??? a newbie??? on what size account??? trading what? belly button lint??? specify... but more importantly you should focus on developing a model, and see what types of returns different strategies return for you, before having expectations on $$$ from the market... and whether its 1% - 1000% return, to me its never enough...


out of curiousity why do you ask???
