T - No problem with your calculations, I overshare myself ( as long as I don't come over bragging! ) and it is interesting to get a feel how others are doing. %'s are OK, don't need to know mr.X made £20k, Mrs. Y made £2k ... etc.
I was happy to be positive in a week at first, then maybe several hundred a week up, then several hundred a day up, now disappointed if not several hundred a day / couple of K a week up... if a quiet day or portfolio goes red then Rule 8 - always another day! It'll come back if not today then maybe tomorrow or one day soon. At least we'll always have Paris. Doh film quote!
What model 3 was £94k? Top of range UK model 3 Performance ( until add more features like come to me / self park / self drive, which are over the air updates when UK law allows them to be used! ) + paint colour and larger wheels if requires was £56.5k + extras. Was it Model S Performance you saw? £93k plus extras. ( that's the American sized car! ).
I'd like the roadster but it's £186000 at the moment, with £36k deposit!!!

Yes, I was there on OCDO board when you shared your target philosophy, about the time you posted "Captain Treacle's Trading Tips" and before S set up the Brigade here. Quarterly target does avoid daily / weekly worries about performance, but doesn't allow time to "fix losses" if not going to hit a target, while daily targets are too short term.
Weekly / monthly may be best to monitor progress, but if you are experienced at trading you will have a top of the head feel for how it's going, as I am sure you do.
