Dear Members…pls share your views on some strategies to generate 5% monthly returns from stock mkt in cash segment .
That’s way beyond what a normal human being expects, @Manish_Agarwal
and my experience says, whoever trades with expectation as high as 5% will most likely face disappointment.
Maybe others can share what is the reasonable expectation one can have from markets on yearly basis.
Research your instrument carefully. Possible…
It’s possible in a raging Bull market like in 2020 and 2021. When the markets are rangebound or in downtrend even 0.5% a month is a big achievement.
If you are able to find it, please let me know too – i am interested
imo no monthly targets are possible. Trading is not substitute for regular income. You win and you lose and we can have extended periods of no returns / negative returns. Systems that i trade have had 5-6 months+ flat/drawdown periods, it can be more too. A decent system that i don’t yet trade was in DD for more than a year. Now some type of systems with v high win rate might not have such extended periods underwater ( i dont trade such yet and they are not necessarily better long term )
Anyone going into trading with expectation of regular income from markets is in for disappointment. However if you understand and accept it, we can make good money too with time.
