Making $5K with $20K each month

Quote from PennyTrader:


I hope this journal will keep me disciplined and motivated to accomplish my goal - making $5K each month to pay bills with my $20K capital.

So you are going to make a cool 300% or more a year on your 20k. Awesome. I'll wait for you to appear in the Trader Monthly top 100.

IOW, just because you can't do something, does not mean it is not doable.

Exactly. Just because one can't make 5k with 25k in stocks doesn't mean that others can't. There are plenty of traders who can't make a penny trading futures but CAN trading stocks. There is no universal law in trading and futures is no magical instrument that can make you money better than stocks.

You mean top 5, don't you?

But I hope the best for him and his goal. It really took some guts for him to share this with the pirahnnas here on ET.

Elite Trader is a great idea and a great source for the exchange of ideas amongst fellow traders. However, it is simply amazing to me how much negativity is abound in many of these pages. . The number of people who are readily available to shit on other people hopes and dreams, however fantastic and unreachable they may appear to the shitter, truly makes me want to never visit this website again. I am convinced that many, but NOT all, of the people who post on this website are guys/gals who have it in their mind that what they want cant be achieved because they are to afraid to commit 100% to acheiving their dreams or they did give their dreams a TRY and they failed. Anybody making a run at their own dreams and goals will be promply told that it cant be done. Maybe this website should be called EGO TRADE.

I salute penny trader for putting his ass on the line in a public forum. Whether you fail or succeed, by your own definitions, your experience will be an opportunity for all of us to learn.

jsv416 agree with you wholeheartedly, so much so I put up your quote.

an alternative name FAILED TRADERS:D
 
just dont pay attention to some of the garbage. if you believe you can do it, then do it. just forget all the haters. a lot of people here are middle age losers tired of working at their dead end jobs hoping to make a quick buck by trading.
 
What has been proposed here is possible.

My only concern is that this individual is relying on his ability to generate spectacular performance just to pay the bills. Spectacular performance is a heckuva lot easier when you don't need it to eat!
 
What I find interesting is that, on one hand according to those who "know", there thousand way of making $$$$ trading the markets. However, the minute somebody comes up with an idea a different angle, many (not all) Et'ers automatically disregard and ridicule the poster. It is illogical at best.
 
Thank you all for the kind words! This ET is very interesting place, some posters are no surprise to me, I remember an old Chinese saying, "when the forest is big, expect to see all kind of birds."

I am opening to all advices and suggestions. "The mind like a parachute - it's only good when it's open". I won't waste a minute on B.S. posts.
 
What a weekend, Attended two birthday parties for the kids today. Now the boys are in sleep, time to scan some potential plays for next week.....:-)
 
Per the request of the moderator, I'll follow the ET policy he sent to me:

"ET has a policy against discussing penny stocks. Here's the rules -- any stock can be discussed that meets at least one of the following two criteria:

1. It trades above $5.... or
2. It has at least 1,000,000 shares of average daily volume.

If a stock does not trade above $5 and does not have an average daily volume of at least 1,000,000 shares then for our purposes it's a penny stock and we don't want it discussed at ET. "

Hmm, did I see a loophole? Any stocks with less than 0.01 can easily trade 1,000,000 volume :-)

Anyway, I'll discuss some potential plays for next week from my scan, they trade over $5.
