Win rate with and without leverage

Beginner Questions

Hi traders.

Been spamming the forum the last 2 days but im hugry for all the info.

I read that a fairly decent win rate is that of 2-5%/pm on the forum. So its not a lot unless you have a very big bankroll as discussed in that thread.

But now if say someone like me does a $1k deposit but im using 100:1 leverage. Does that mean a decent size winning rate would be 2% of my deposit x my leverage i.o.w $100k and a total of $2k profit pm?

I understand that some months are different then others etc etc. but im just looking at what could be possible with such a deposit.

Hi Steven,

“Win rate” refers to the percentage of your trades that show a profit: you’re referring to “monthly percentage profit”, above, not to “win rate”.

I [I][U]think[/U][/I] that reading the first page of this thread carefully will probably tell you what you want to know about leverage.
