In an effort to try and make my point without diverting people away from C2, I’ll keep it simple. Someone came on the forums saying they had a goal of 5-10% per month. They showed a track record from somewhere other than C2. They continued to use very large amounts of leverage and the account according to C2 crash majorly. The person blamed it on C2 not reading the results of their account completely. However, the outside track record, off C2 also showed the massive drop also. Once again I would refer anyone new to C2 to the original post in my thread here. > [@Basics to Avoid Disaster IMHO](https://forums.collective2.com/t/basics-to-avoid-disaster-imho/14779): > > I have been on C2 for a while and want to share some basics on how I screen strategies. This is just one of many things to do, but I think following this helps avoid many of the strategies that eventually end up having very sudden seismic changes in performance. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.collective2.com/t/another-solid-month-in-the-books-keeping-to-that-5-10-per-month-goal/15077)._
