I'm not going to say this is an impossible task, because there is of course a possibility that it could happen.
For example: $1,000.00 US compounded at a 1.95% per daily trading, over a period of 360 trading days would yield $1,045,689.73, or if you were able to continue doing it for a period of 720 trading days, you would generate more than a billion dollars.
To actually accomplish this task though, is extremely difficult.
Also... Good luck getting your brokerage to authorize a full billion dollar withdrawal from your account.

If it looks too good to be true, it's probably a scam! Let the buyer beware.

So if we change it to realistics and safe 1.95% a month
Then you will need 360 months
Which is 30 years
So it will be great investment for your retirement, isn't it?

Yes Exactly!
A small account can grow to a very comfortable retirement account if properly managed.

It is perhaps not so difficult to make 2% monthly
But to keep it consistent for years and do not withdraw anything
for years...

Very true, few people would have that kind of discipline to never withdraw from the account.
Perhaps if the investor created multiple accounts, and designated one of them as the retirement account it might be easier.

Yeah name it.
Like assign that account to newly born son or daughter to help you trade it responsibly without withdrawals.
Poor US guys whose need to pay for university should do that for their children :)

2% a month sounds so easy on paper but the reality of trading is so difficult that hardly anyone would be able to achieve that figure.
I have safe system that makes 2% month without risk
But I do not use it as formula of my balance and my expenses push me to more profitable systems

using an FTMO account, (100k acct.) which requires 10% monthly gain, could lead to this goal in just 100 months. (8 years). 10% monthly is very very doable. your daily loss limit, even in floating trades, can never exceed 5%. it is a safe way to trade at least for my strategy.

The most realistic is something between 2% and 10% per month. Everyone should know this who is more than 2 years in the trading scene. All the others are just dreamers which might have some luck with their poor money management. There's hardly anyone who's doing this for more than 5 or 10 years. 20% per month is possible, but not for more than 1 year. If anyone is telling you something like '20-100%/month over more than 2 years' is a cheater/faker/scam. That's it.
100% per year with a max drawdown of around 20% is a good goal though. But a goal is a goal and real results are real results. These are two different things. Forex is never a thing with which you can make a real plan on very long terms. Most people are just gambling, like you can see with the original poster of this thread here, making "1k to 0" three (or even more) times per year. lol
