Just want to point out with 260 working days in the year:

1.005^260 = 366%

and

1.01^260 = 1329%

In case anyone sees "0.5%" _daily_ and thinks low risk.



Yeah, I'm not saying this is low risk. It's more about trying to build a system to be in the right place at the right time. It is massively risky. I was sort of hesitant to even write that comment because you constantly see all these youtube day traders selling courses on making 1% daily. If you try that you'll lose money extremely quickly.
