As title says. Basically I've been daytrading mostly tiny accounts for practice for past 3 years. (don't have patience for paper trading Undecided )

I want to start building up my portfolio/balance at bitmex, I traded on bittrex, binance and few others but I just love bitmex for some reason. So I have few main questions I want to get opinions on.

One more thing, I know all these questions depend a lot on the trader but I still want to know opinions, to explain context with me, I like very small timeframe trades (20-120 minutes per open trade) I use stop loss and trailing stop mostly pretty tightly.

1) I want to use leverage which I know is dangerous, but is x5 profitable? is it good balance of risk and reward probability? I am also considering x10, or is it too much? Take in considerating my mentioned trading style Cheesy

2) What are good indicators for daytrading in 5 min charts?

3) Is it possible to compound the gains? I know traders have minus days and they just try to go in plus at average of week/month, but is it realistic to compound it monthly or so? And raise your trading budget with it?

4) What is realistic percentage or dollar/btc gains? I don't plan on opening huge account with all of my savings or something, so I hope I can raise it from trading and grow it.

Thankies Cheesy
