what is the maximum mathematically possible daily profit

[virtusa]

OP "assuming you can catch it all, what is the maximum daily profit percentage possible with 500:1 leverage" so stretch out a bottom to top, then sum each tick_value * volume * 500

So you are very rich now with this holy grail. LOL.

You didn't answer any of my questions. So probably you did not try it out, and never made any money with it.

Cant speak for he OP,but it appears the exercise is to see what percent of cumulative swings or max range move traders capture....500 to 1 leverage is just an arbitrary figure being thrown out..

One can then look at vol stops,position sizing etc,but max potential "perfect" profit is somewhat interesting

I am daytrading and have been trying to catch every market move that I can possibly catch.
I estimate that if one can catch 1/5 of all market moves on everyday, one can make more than 100 times profit month/per on average.

A few years ago, at the NY Traders Expo, I overheard the following conversation:

Customer (in his 20s, holding a book) asks: if I learn how to daytrade the S&P eminis, can I make a living with a $10,000 account?
Broker: Absolutely! And we can set you up at $300/contract margin!!

I always wondered how long this account lasted... 2 days?

The OP is sending us on a wild goose chase with loosely worded terms like "catch it all"...

WTF does that mean??? Is,he suggesting buying the absolute low and selling the top,or catching every swing,rinse repeat while magically side stepping a 20 bps correction??

This OP must be laughing every day every night as he has posted a very twisted foolish question.

this OP has also created this new thread.
It is written in bot language.

beeep! bip! beeep! bep! bip!

I doubt This OP is a human.

Maximum daily profit is only limited by maximum daily movement or in particular MFE from entry to exit Times X number of trades - MAE from entry to exit assuming exit to be F and A. Leverage has nothing to do with it. In $$ potential it does but not in max profit locked in regardless of leverage. In other words, a person cannot make more profit in terms of points..ticks…pips ….than what the market actually moves regardless of leverage.

100% X dollars in X leverage amount in more exact terms

infinite...

It's strictly an academic exercise, without a practical upside, since "catching it all" isn't reality-based, which means whatever the net answer is will also not be reality-based. Lacking any utility, there's no buzz, no sizzle.

Happy trades!

When they say that there is no limit to the profits that you can make through forex trading, they mean it. You just have to be capable of earning the best you can. Telling any amount as the maximum would limit a trader’s approach.
