TJMC,

Welcome to Babypips, it’s my personal belief that you need to concentrate on developing a strategy that produces positive pips…the money will come.

Best of luck !!

Welcome to Babypips.
First of all you need to study a lot from successful traders success story and their guideline. Follow their strategies and then develop your own strategy. after that you can expect daily earnings. If you need any help ask in babypips. In trading it happens sequentially,loss and profit. If you want to gain profits you must have to face losses.

Hi,
Ive had a look at the link, can you tell me more about it?

It is a famous Forex Trading guide book . It will increase your knowledge in trading.

You need about $10000 to make such an amount in a week. This also requires that you trade more in that week. If I were you, I would not set such target yet. You must learn how to follow the market and see how you can avoid losing. If you can avoid loss like a plague, then you won’t need to worry about profit.

Money management is a traders best friend. This will ultimately get you to your goal.

at least 10 000. But if lucky you will lose half of that in less than a year.

You need to understand money management and risk management in-depth. This is the key to a successful and managed trading

Focusing on the profits rather than the process will destroy any and all accounts. Speculating is a marathon not a sprint. Best of luck bro

You need to understand risk and money management in-depth. I think that will be very useful to you.

Before we answer, can you indicate, how much risk are you going to take in order to achieve that goal - minor, moderate, high or heavy? For high risk, 1000$ is enough, my first capital with Hotforex was 2K and average lot traded was 2. It all depends on volume of trades and leverage you use. Just controlling lots in your trade you can proportionally alter the amount of potential earnings, as well as risks your account is exposed to.
Good luck
