And no 20% per month is not a typo. BRE, the problem is that if one managed a return of 20% a month CONSISTENTLY then the following will happen to R1 MILLION over 5,6,7,8,9,10 years.....R51.4 BILLION, R458.2 BILLION, R4.1 TRILLION, R36.4 TRILLION, R324.8 TRILLION and R2.9 QUADRILLION respectively. Not going to happen, it DEFIES LOGIC. Extrapolation has caused many to lose their shirts. A newbie reading that Chartist made 50K in one day reckons 20 trading days times 50K = R 1 MILLION...BINGO. It doesn't happen that way in the real world. The experienced traders/investors should tell them so. "The fish sees the bait not the hook; a man sees not the danger only the profit." Chinese Proverb. Making 50K (or any other amount) is easy, the hard part is doing it consistently. It's the COLLECTIVE result that matters, NOT any SINGLE trade. The health of the FOREST is what is important, not any individual TREE. My thoughts anyways.
