What is the best return percentage to enter with the trader

The trader uses this percentage to judge when to sell the trade. This percentage must therefore be high enough to make a profit.

If you enter 5%, the trader will make relatively few transactions. After all, price fluctuations of 5% are less frequent.

If you enter 2% here, you will benefit from a larger volume of transactions and you may have a better total return. Keep in mind that almost all exchanges charge 0.25% purchase and 0.25% selling costs. So that means that you only make a profit from a return percentage of 0.5%. Our calculations on historical data (24 months history and longer) indicate that between 1.5% and 1.8% the maximum net return (= taking into account transaction costs) is achieved.
