<![CDATA[what is your actual realistic monthly return target]]>no telegram guru numbers please. real ones from real consistent traders.

for context - im in year 4 of trading, consistently profitable for the last 18 months. my actual realized monthly return is around 3-5% on average. some months 8, some -2. averages out to about 4%.

i used to think 10% monthly was achievable until i actually got consistent. now i realize anyone claiming 20%+ monthly is either lying or about to blow up.

curious what serious people target and what they actually achieve.
