If I invest $500.00 in futures can i make 5000 dollars in a matter of 2 or 3 days?
Answer:
Yes, you can. But the much more likely scenario is that you will loose the $500.00 in a matter of hours or even minutes.
YOU could play the horses.
There are no Santa Clauses. You stand a better chance of losing your $5,000.00 in less than an hour!
It is mathematically possible. However, the odds are not with you.
Only if you can tell the future.
Sure, but you could also win the lottery. But like the lottery your chances of succeeding are very slim. There is no such thing as easy money.
Read the FT/WST/Economist. Under no cirumstances try the speculation game unless you have the money to lose.
No.
You would need a lot more than $500 to cover any potential cash calls if the market went against you.

I suggest you to simulate you bought $500.00 in futures on September 10, 2001 and see what happens.
If you did not make $5,000.00 then with the knowledge of the future then you cannot make $5,000.00 in 3 days.
