Yes, you can make more than that if you understand how the banks trade and work your strategies to tag along when they move price. Here is a live account just launched to achieve some more aggressive trade goals that answers your question. Be warned, it takes a lot of experience (that means you made every mistake possible and learned) before you can manage the larger gains safely. This is not for newbies...

The mentioned strategy has LESS THAN A MONTH history!

The question again:
Can anybody show a VERIFIED LIVE account on MyFxBook with at least 5% average monthly profit for AT LEAST 2 YEARS (!) and with less than -25% max. DD...?

Anybody...???

Mine is close to 2 years with consistent performance of close to 5% but the drawdown was higher at one point of time.

The reason for DD being higher was me withdrawing large portion of funds for some immediate use. The equity went down resulting in higher DD. But I am consistent enough and was not worried about losses.

@chisha If you are playing safe you can make 5% profits per month which much risks and enjoy long term results. There might be some weeks where you will be making upto 20% and some where you make 2% but overall anywhere between 5%-10% on your investment is very good.

Large accounts how average of 5%-8% returns

lol,
i see about +/- 80% diffrence between your balance and equity atm, not in the good kind, Sure it's al profit you're gambling now, but doing the growth with low DD, don't think so.
My gues is your system has a 1 out of 3 chance of crashing verry soon.
also you have double starting capital. not 5 k.

Try again, don't oversell your system unless you have the verified live history to back it up.

Too optimistic, I wouldn't describe the knowledge as wise,
It's a simple multicurrency grid trading stratigy.
anyone researching forex for some time can easily replicate this kind of stratigy.

This is funny and tragic at once... (in view of the self gloryfying statements)

-76% DD in less than a month. Apparently there is something more to learn... Maybe it would be enough to reverse all trades. A very simple way to make this stragegy a winner.

Do not fall for less than 2 months results. Any strategy with less than 6 months of verfied results does not mean much. The Forex cemetary is full of strategies which blew accounts even after 6 months' of stable profitability.

You should find at least 6 months, with good ratio...
Be aware of demo results etc

I do not think that you can earn 40% on your capital every month. Make your expectations right, before you can trade for consistent gains.

Testing a strategy is not a matter of time, only market conditions. That means, if you want to know all about a strategy, it has to have been through all possibly market conditions.

If you are validating a range trading strategy under range conditions, it turns out to be just fine, but what happens when it goes through brake out conditions, or a strong trend?

Also, i do not thing that trading is about finding an EA, applying it to the chart and then just let it run, it is, in my opinion, not trading.

Trading is about analyzing the daily charts, make your trades or not, depending on the market. You can not expect to win each and every month, expect draw down periods and accept them as a part of your trading.

Make some good trades, take off half of the profit, and continue the good work, day after day, month after month, year after year - that is trading.

Keep it simple!

I can make it sometimes on good volatile months only, check my results here https://www.myfxbook.com/members/scalpingforex/client-1/518945

however 40% profit every single month is not realistic, 5 - 10% on average monthly is very possible though.

Come on!! You are running 6 strategies and showing the most profitable one - with statistically insignificant 8 TRADES and LESS THAN A MONTH history - as an example of your talent... What about your other 2 months old strategy showing a LOSS...??? https://www.myfxbook.com/members/scalpingforex/fxprimus/498780 Why did not you show that one as 'check my results here...' Oooops...!!!

The Forex cemetary is full of sceletons of 'successful strategies' which blew accounts after even 6 months of 'success'. Anybody touting a strategy here with less than 6 months of stable profitable history is just a Forex Peacock who wants to get rich by risking OTHER people's (usually naive noobs') money.
