Making 15 to 20% profit every month !!!

I think such a consistent return can be achieved by algorithmic scalping - numerous trades, day and night, a few pips per trade.
You do realise that 15-20% per month is an abnormally high return, compounded it makes around 700% yearly. And with abnormally high return, comes abnormally high risk!!!

I am personally experimenting with such algoes of my own on M1 timeframe. Instead of using SL, I employ automatic grid-trading to get the position out on profit. However, grid is a dangerous animal where sideways market can ruin you fast, and I have to admit I had to stop my algo once and recover manually.

OK, so there are a lot of people say that it is possible. Can someone please explains (in detail) the strategy of HOW you can make 15% - 20 % per month. That is what everyone really wants to know.

I think it is possible manually by staying attached to the screen all the time. Trader sits, and hunts for moves (preferably shorts) in 1H time frame, and bases his actions on that. Currecy pairs in question would be those with lowest spreads, most likely EURUSD or not so often USDJPY.

This allows no other life, family or work. All the time outside of the bed should be scheduled to trading. Then it would be possible.
I was able to stand this for 3 mo's.

I don't know about programming EA's.

If you are scalping how do you prevent the spread from the broker taking all your profits in long term. I tried scalping on demo and was fantastic but when i went live I lose all my money

Numerous trades on 1m timeframe would lead to disaster soon or later.

Which ECN broker do you recommend? I looked into some brokers but the commissions were so high that it was better to trade with a dealing desk broker with 1 pips spread

I do not want to recommend, but I can say I've been working with IC Markets for the last 3 months. Find them good for now. But 3 months is a very short period to judge... I haven't had withdrawal request with them i.e. can't judge about it either...
Their commission equates to 0.00007 for a round-turn (less than 1 pip) and if you use a service like PayBackFX you get a cash-back of 0.00002. Effectively your round-turn commission becomes 0.5 pips.

Hi every one !

Frankly saying , I'm not a trader at all.
But one of my friend has been in this trading business for just around 6 months and
he's telling me that his boss is making 15 to 20% profit every month.

He's also asking me to invest in his team.
And he's also giving a guarantee not to lose any of my money and have a 15 to 20% profit or stable income.
He said his boss can make it even more , but he's just saying as a safe zone about this.

For me, everything he said is 'Too Good Too Be True' and even though I still can't believe it,
I want to make sure by hearing from all of you on this claim.

Is that possible ?
And if that's possible, is there anyone or anyway that can prove this could be done by some kinds of evidence.

Cos this is my friend , I don't wanna hurt him in any way but
I want to prove his boss is hiding something from him or just simply lying.
Can anyone please help me about this?
Is that possible to make Making 15 to 20% profit every month by forex trading ?

What's the average profit of a professional trader can make every month ?

( one of my friends recommended me to come here and asked about it , I hope any of you can help me )
