Who are we looking for and why even a 1% per week is actually an impressive performance?

Updated over 3 weeks ago

At Fintokei, we’re not chasing unicorns.

We’re not impressed by overnight 100% gains.

We’re here to back traders who can perform like professionals.

📌 That means: controlled, consistent, and repeatable performance.

So when someone asks us:

“Isn’t 1% a day too little?”

Our answer is simple:

No. In fact, 1% a day is mindblowing performance. And even 1% a week is totally world-class.


🧠 Let’s do the math

Many traders are obsessed with high returns. They think that unless they’re making 10-20% per week or month, they’re failing. But let’s put things into perspective.

📈 1% a day (on average) = ~23% per month (compounded)

📈 Compounded, that’s more than 1000% annually—and that’s assuming you don’t increase risk or size up your capital

📈 Of course, you might not get profit every single day. But nobody expects that.

💬 Reality check:

• Most hedge funds target 10–20% per year

• Legendary traders often hover around 25–30% annual return

• Even the best quant firms on Wall Street don’t aim for 1% daily returns—because it’s hard to do safely

✅ And so, a trader making 1% per week, consistently, will outperform 99% of all other traders.


🎯 Who we’re looking for

We’re not here to reward reckless trading.

We’re here to back traders who can:

• ✅ Manage risk with precision

• ✅ Stay consistent across weeks and months

• ✅ Show discipline—not just talent

• ✅ Build something that could scale to a $1M+ portfolio with us


💥 Big numbers don’t always mean big skill

Anyone can hit a lucky 10% day.

But can you survive 3 months without blowing up?

Can you make 1% a day while risking just 0.5–1% per trade?

Can you keep your cool when markets go wild?

👉 That’s what impresses us.

Because that’s what real traders do.


📆 And what if you’re a swing trader making 1% a week?

That’s still impressive.

We don’t care how often you trade—we care how well you trade.

If you risk 0.5% to make 1% once or twice a week, and you stick to your plan with consistency and discipline, you’re doing it right.

📌 What matters most isn’t frequency—it’s repeatability, risk control, and overall performance over time.

So yes, if you’re a swing trader who delivers +2–5% per month with solid execution, you’re absolutely the kind of trader we’re looking for.


🛠 The goal isn’t growth at any cost. The goal is growth that can last.

Our vision isn’t to hand out a few payouts.

It’s to build the future generation of pro traders.

Traders who could one day manage real capital, investor portfolios, or their own prop desks.

That journey doesn’t start with a gamble.

It starts with a reasonable goal, whether it’s 1% a day or 1% a week, but most importantly with a rock-solid strategy.


💡 So if you’re consistent, calm under pressure, and know that small wins compound into big futures—you’re exactly who we’re looking for.

📌 Fintokei backs real traders.

Not the loudest ones. Not the riskiest ones.

The ones who last.
