Quote from jsmith:

A more accurate poll would be what percent of your account capital do you make in 1 year? (Buying Power / 4 instead of account capital if you're in a prop firm)

I use to think 1% a day was possible when I first started trading. Now, I know a consistent 20-30% a year with minimal drawdowns will make you one of the best traders.

I bet anyone who put 1%+ a day is a new or losing trader.

Earning 0.0001% per day can be still voting >10% if you like.
 
Quote from brian_forex:

Not necessarily a linear correlation. I made over 50% in a day when I was first starting out. Of course, that account is not around anymore. :)

That should be negative % return per day, isn't it?
