You want to help new traders; get then to calculate how much they can lose!!
assuming you can catch it all, what is the maximum daily profit percentage possible with 500:1 leverage. t
This is what we are lead to believe. The truth is the opposite. Ideally you want to get ahead fast when you are correct so that the anomaly is not as painful. All the mahor hedge fund managers know this and express it in interviews. You guys dont know better than hedge fund managers and you certaintly dont know better than me.So true, its the protection of funds through a properly organised risk management system that will keep your loses small so your wins don't have to be 'maximum'
CorrectIf you are using 500:1 leverage, then if you can catch a 2% intra day move in the market you make 1000% in one day. Basic maths.
But 500:1 is extreme, 50:1 is more senisble for day trading. So 100% return on a good day (when you manage to catch that 2% move) is possible.
Obviously no one is going to make that kind of return every day, and you are going to have many losing day as well.
