Subscriber funds 5.7M
not convinced -- there are two situations:
1) TC says: "look at the signal service of MC, look how many successful ones, 2, 3 years have a history of successful trading, choose anyone, it's easy, trade"
2) TC said: "choose a signal of Taras, he is in a drawdown, it's time to subscribe, no mistakes" (just above this advertising was described in the post)
Question 1: Which variant is more suitable for a broker who is interested in his clients? 1 or 2?
question 2: which variant of advertising is more suitable for brokerage companies interested in Taras's signal? 1 or 2?
I do not understand why a brokerage company should advertise Taras signal
p.s. Taras signal is only 1.5 years old, the drawdown is 44% - it's not the best signal by all indicators - and it's hard to disagree with this
if Taras's signal was "head and shoulders" above all other signals -- then, yes, I don't argue, I understand everything, I agree -- but his signal is not the best, neither by trading, nor by reliability.
Question 3: if you close the "number of subscribers" display, will Taras' signal have 1000 subscribers?
I agree with it
i can only say that the investor likes this stability - i just look at the months, there is not a single red month in 3 years
И?
Psychology!
The thing is that if it were a PAMM for example - of course his income would be higher
But it is more complicated with psychology.

what 3 years? it's 1.5 years to the signal - the trading style is "Martin-grid" - do investors like Martin-grids?

The point is that the average subscriber is in the negative, if the developers don't lie with the stats.
I don't quite understand your conclusions on this subject - can you at least somewhat justify your thought?
There are service slippage statistics, which are maintained by the developers and which are available to everyone. For example, slippage of 1 pip on EURUSD = 0.00010 - 10 five-digit pips.
If the Provider opens a position with such slippage and closes it with a profit of 20 points, the Subscriber will gain 0 points of profit (10 points will slip on opening and the same amount on closing).
In addition, the subscriber will pay the broker's commission.
Therefore, in order to make a profit, Subscriber should have the Provider's mathematical expectation more than twice as big as the average slippage. In this case it is > 150 pips on Pepper (there are a lot of subscribers there). There's a little less, if not more. But it's clear that if the average subscriber has ~$5000 ($5700K/1200), they don't keep it in the kitchen, which have shallow slips, but wherever ECN is somehow mentioned. That's why Pepper and company are so popular with subscribers - they don't cheat.
The Signal has the mathematical expectation < 150 pips. Therefore, the developers' statistics suggest that the average subscriber will lose by copying even if the Provider is profitable.

The Signal has the mathematical expectation < 150 pips. So purely mathematically, if we believe the developer's statistics, the average subscriber loses when copying, even if the provider is profitable.
Thanks, now it's clearer.
