It's ten from $1,000. There's a reason why this doesn't happen and practically no one here has more than a few million.

What's wrong mathlets? That is quite literally the doubling of 10k, 17 times. That is to say, you have 17 stacks of 20k.

The odds depends on how secure the double ups are. But surely there are plenty of sure 2x out in the market. It's not like rolling a roulette.

Now, where are the people that have done this? Nearly everyone in /smg/ that has more than a million is some boomer that only buys 1x ETFs who has a well paying job and contributes tens of thousands each year into their account. There's simply no one around that has managed to sustain such a return long term or else they would be a billionaire by now.

Then you would say if you started off with 10k, and doubled your money 17 times, then it would be a billion.

Doubling 10k 17 times is something else.

>> No.19671607

>>19671141
I remember thinking this 2 years ago.

Even if you assume that doubling your money 17 times is easy, you would run into problems with liquidity as you start buying and selling hundreds of thousands at a time.

The real sticking point seems to be over a hundred thousand. It could be psychological barrier with people losing their edge with that amount of money at play or it could be that it's nearly impossible to beat the market long term and we are just fooling ourselves. I think this is the biggest mystery in trading and it's so rarely talked about. It isn't just doubling, it works with a high return and compounding. 10k with a 50% annual return over 30 years is nearly two billion dollars at the end of it.

Two explanations that are frequently suggested are volume and taxation. In some countries you can do this in a tax free account so that isn't a concern and volume doesn't matter if your trades are under a few hundred thousand unless it's a low cap meme stock. It would affect the billionaires, but not people with a million dollars.

If roulette had a true 50/50 chance of landing on black, the probability of that happening 17 times in a row is 1 in 131,072.

In trading it's different because of the upward bias and you could technically just hold something like a leveraged index ETF until you came into profit again. Depending on your risk/reward, it's also possible to lose most of your trades and still profit.

OMG will be a sure x2 within the next 2 months (most likely 1 month). I believe possibly x10 or more, but there are reasons for this.

>exchanges buy OMG
>fee rate changes on OMG network from % of OMG to % of ETH
>exchanges pump OMG as high as possible
>exchange as increased the value of their fee tokens while saving on fees using OMG network anyway
>compounds the saving of any ETH token transaction by around 97% if they pump it 10x
OMG will be the only method of payment on the network until staking, and the change from % of OMG to % of ETH takes place in the next week. OMG volume has increased higher than ever, even during 2017/18 bull run, despite having a mcap less than 1/10th of the mcap during the bull run. I believe that is because exchanges are buying up getting ready for the fee change.
