Dislikedyears ago i traded a mini account ($100) and it went up to 10.000 in 2 months or so when i remeber. i took only TP 5 pips without stop loss. a lot of trading hours and hard work. a average day was 20-30 pips and when i reached then i stopped trading. it is possible, i proved it for myself, but i know its thinking out of the box and therefore not for everybody;-)Ignored
I have done other experiments similarly using market price action boxes, break out TP low pips 10-20 and SL 100/edge of box. It can work for months until it doesn't and if you are compounding to make a small account big, account goes bye bye. I got to 47 days in a row before the account died.
I have made more than 20 points collectively across the last 70 or so days, but thats on indicies and its not trading in a way that is single day target, some days I take 800. I don't think trading can fit into a box, it needs to be adaptive. If you set rigid goals the chance of failure is likely high. If someone is successfully doing it they are the exception not the rule.
