I think if you’re a highly skilled day trader, like truly elite, years of experience, a pro who can make money each day in the markets, 2% a day is attainable. And that might be on the conservative...

You probably need to stop trading. Like for good. Maybe do mutual funds if you want to be in the markets. You aren't a trader, you're a donator. You're just donating to others' accounts. ...

If you have a tiny account you'd be very well advised to trade mes. The higher fees are just a cost of admission when you're a small retail trader.
