being positive every month is impossible. trading is just not like that. sometimes the markets are ugly and their will be losses. But as long as the account is positive at the end of the year then all is good

I have spent almost a decade looking for an EA or system that could do something like that. My EA and manual system library is massive. I tried thousands. Even tweaked some martingales to do quick withdrawals - In the 'almost decade' I only found a single EA and manual that I am Happy with. But like @togr says... is not all moonshine & roses.

This is true, it's all about the long term

It's possible if you have a healthy strategy and you are willing to take the risk i.e any strategies performance can be magnified by increasing position size.

Some months may return less than 5%, some months more than 10%, but 5-10% as a monthly average is realistic for retail traders, if you are profitable.
If I can do it, so can you!

I agree 30% per month is very reasonable. With the right mindset and right strategy and deep understanding of the very core of economy also will help in trading, it will help in getting the confidence in trade. I have passed the final stage of trading, and I can really say the hardest part is only to think like a successful trader. That includes not too greedy or too scared and also not treating forex like a gambling arena.

If i could break it down to few components, it will be as follow

1) A working strategy that has been tested for at least 2 years(to filter out what works and what doesn't with the technique)
2) Patience, patience, patience

Once you have this 2 components your trading will be almost(not entirely) autonomous, all those hours that you spent on watching chart ticking will do the magic. You will know which direction will move next.

@kamal888 Good luck on your martingale system.
30% for me is unreasonable in forex trading. Maybe someone can make it but, the chances to stop out is very high.
Forex market is 24/5, why not you make profits consistently instead of one time profit only?
Good luck

Why are you so shy and do not share a single account with such great results of yours?

It is possible, if you do proper risk management, set proper SL and TP and follow the trend. If you make entry based on technical and decide the pair based on fundamentals then yes it is possible.

Hi. I really think it is possible but it takes a lot of time to get to the point were you know exactly how to do it.

Invest on a good EA (robot) with a low DD. Or copy trades from experienced traders, so you can diversify your risk. Always try something new on Demo account while at the same time stay on a safe haven on your real account. And if you can, work with someone with more experience in forex, so best advice: find a coach, and your return on your investment will improve dramatically.

What I wish to achieve from forex trading is the autonomy of earning and extra level of income apart from regular earning. Though flexibility, liquidity, increasing income facilities, etc. all are various benefits that a foreign currency exchange trader can receive, every trader has diverse objective in terms of trading. Each trader must try to go forward with suitable trading strategies which will facilitate easy objective achievement by fulfilling his needs here.

Nice in theory but how do you get a 'good EA'? Some of the fully automated ones pretty bad

Many of the EAs are bad. It is quite easy to program an EA which will trade, it is hard to programm EA which is long term profitable. I am managing so many accounts EAs are the only way to handle it

Hi Vontogr

I agree with you. Most of the EAs out there are just rubbish, so I decided to program my own EA. It took me 10 years to have something that CAN be profitable, but only on certain pairs, on certain time frames, and when the market behaves in a certain way. And even on those rare occasions I still have to close some orders manually in order to keep the DD on a reasonable level. So in my opinion an EA can be profitable? Yes, but such an EA will cost a lot of money (not USD 99.95), and even so it will not be error free, you will need to know when (or when not) and how to use the EA to make it profitable.

I have tried a number of EAs and Binary Options signals: Binary Robot 365, Maximus Edge Autobot, Tai Robotic, … you should take a look at BinaryOptionsArmy before trying any of those systems. I wasn't successful and probably very few people were able to make money with these systems because they do not exist anymore now ( well, Binary Robot 365 is still there). I have followed a lot of 'Katie Tutorials' Binary Options lessons on YouTube, and some of her strategies are really good, but without proper money management techniques you will end up blowing your account, as I did.

I have tried a number of systems out there: Piet Swart's Income Map, Toshko Raychef's NSOFT, Russ Horn's Rapid Result Method and Forex Master Method, Hector Deville's 3SMA Trend Riding System, Nicola Delic's Rapid Cash Accumulator and Quattro Cash Envelopes, and I even tried to understand Bill Williams' Trading Chaos book. Some of this systems are free and you can follow them on YouTube, and some are not. So I had to spend money $$ and time to get an idea of how to trade using certain techniques, and a couple years later that technique was obsolete (maybe still profitable but on lesser occasions) because the market changes continuously. So using an EA is the same as working on your trading skills, you need to know what you are doing and if that particular technique will make money or not, on a certain pair, etc. One good system (but not 100% reliable), in my experience, is SynergyPro from Dean Malone/Compass FX, which uses the TDI Indicator (based on the RSI Indicator). Nicola Delic shared some very good indicators over the Internet too. I have seen some resent posts where the autor states that he joined Dean Malone's live room but he is not using almost any of the techniques he teaches, so he is probably making more money teaching than actually trading. If you copy a certain trader or system, try to understand what he is doing, so that at the end you are able to judge any system and trade by yourself.

Long term EAs do not exists, because the market changes continuously, new systems take advantage of higher computational power and change the rules of the market. New players come into the scenery and they push the limits else where. So invest on your knowledge, not on other's knowledge.

But regarding to the original question, if you can win a monthly 5%-10% consistently, yes it can be done. And my best advice is find a good coach, learn how to trade, and that way you will recognize if a certain system , method or EA can be profitable or not.
