Compound Trading Returns Calculator

Compound trading means reinvesting your profits so that each subsequent trade is placed with a larger account balance. This creates exponential growth - your gains generate further gains.

A consistent 1% daily return is extremely ambitious and unrealistic for most traders over long periods. Even 0.1-0.3% daily compounded can lead to significant returns over a year. Be cautious of strategies claiming very high daily returns.

With compounding, a $1,000 account earning 0.5% per trading day (252 days) grows to about $3,520 - a 252% return. Without compounding, simple interest would yield only $1,260 (126% return).
