what is the maximum mathematically possible daily profit

[unconventional wisdom]

500:1 leverage on short dated twitter calls before the musk news. it needs to be one trade because trading in and out several times in a day isn't possible due to clearing new proceeds.

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.

I thought that hedgefund managers underperformed the market.
Google the Buffet bet.

assuming you can catch it all, what is the maximum daily profit percentage possible with 500:1 leverage. this is an excellent exercise to help new traders evolve and understand trading math better. it helps you compare your current system to whats technically possible, so you realize you have a long way to go and that progress is neverending. it helps in dissolving the limits our mind fearfully creates.

i welcome anyone to display their attempt at answering this question accurately. are we gonna smoke this banana

You can't control profits only risk.

Starting a thread like this that focuses on high leverage with a faulty assumption of catching all a move comes across like a red herring.

Without identifying the instrument and it's ATR, there's no basis in the calculation. At 500:1, looks like a forex market which would imply a 1% daily average. I don't trade forex so I really wouldn't know.

Theoretically this is infinite%. Hard limit would be the market value of global assets and the economic value of their derivatives.

It's fine to use high leverage trading instruments as long as your trade is sized properly. If your risking >4-5% of your capital on trades your on a knifes edge, at >15% it's suicide.

Fx has a lot of back-filling & whipsaws - the more leverage you use, the smaller a counter move can be to get you auto-liquidated with a margin call.

There is no mathematical limit on daily profit. The 500:1 bit is a red herring to throw us off.
