Exactly. I think hearing someone not being impressed by ##% returns with small DD over such a long period of time is almost a definition of a newbie still watching videos with penny stock trading guys driving their Lambos

Well, I watch them sometimes too. Since comedy clubs are closed now...
There was a comment about "some traders" making 20% a month with almost no losing days. I made 18.86% in March with 2 losing days or so. But frankly speaking, that doesn't mean anything. According to my models that is an outlier event that has a high probability of happening at least once in 10 years when the market has exceptional volatility. It will be a big mistake if I start projecting annual returns based on that fluke.
