While a 200% monthly gain might get you noticed, it also signals a high-risk approach that will deter serious, long-term investors.</span></p> <p class="ng-star-inserted"><span class="ng-star-inserted">Followers are not looking for a lottery ticket; they are looking for a skilled manager to grow their capital steadily.

This is a red flag for experienced followers.</span></p> </li> <li class="ng-star-inserted"> <p class="ng-star-inserted"><strong class="ng-star-inserted"><span class="ng-star-inserted">Trader B (The Professional):</span></strong><span class="ng-star-inserted"> A steady, upward-sloping curve with shallow drawdowns.
