Why do signal and advisor sellers sell their products and not use them themselves?

I don't understand, so to speak, selling golden grails, if the strategy works why sell it? So it turns out that it means it's not perfect and it may fail everything, then why sell it if it's a sinker? I do not buy only because of this, if they sell it, it means it is not a quality product, and a profitable really working system - no one will sell it.

Even if the system consistently produces 5% p.a., with some manipulation it is possible to increase profits many times over.

i can tell from the ratings that you're an experienced guy..... if the system yields 5% p.a. and it is not a rip-off. it has the same appeal as a bank deposit, and i don't see any reason why such systems should not be sold, because the profit here depends more on the size of the deposit than the system itself. the sellers may not have enough of it, so they sell it. both for themselves and for others
(with large deposits) - that's good.For example in the case of such systems they may have higher depo rates and more profitability.

it's different for those who promise high dividends. In such systems the risk is very high and therefore sellers know that stability with high risks is out of the question but these systems may be profitable in certain periods. i don't see why they can't sell them either.

But if they are stable like a tank and have very high dividends, nobody will definitely sell them ...

IMHO

An advisor is not a product, like a diamond or another work of art, but above all information.

When you sell information, you do not lose it - it stays with you anyway. Therefore, selling EAs is best seen as a profitable business and additional income.

And no one will sell systems with very big percentages and at the same time, they are as stable as a tank...

if a system yields 5% p.a. stably, it's not a rip-off, it's as much of a rip-off as a bank deposit.

As for the 5%, you can run a lot of accounts or copy deals from yourself, it won't be 5%, but 5% multiplied by the number of accounts/"copyers"...

And if an EA has a high profit - there are such signals anyway and they sell them.

And if the Expert Advisor brings a large percentage - there are such signals anyway, and the Expert Advisors are sold.

You have 1000 quid in one account. You have an Expert Advisor that brings 5% per annum on this account and acceptable drawdowns. If you attach five or ten more EAs to the same account, they will increase their volumes as many times as you have added them to the same account. Correspondingly, the risks will increase. In order to keep the risks at the former acceptable level, the deposit must be increased by the same amount.

Do you have another $1000 for each added EA? No?

And if you start selling EAs, but maybe there will be.

Consider an EA as a certain probability of profit. No Expert Advisor can guarantee its profitability. Given that the profit of advisors is not guaranteed, it becomes understandable that some sellers are willing to exchange their possible high profits for the unconditional, but not so high profits from their sales.

Fortunately, what you've written does not correspond to reality, in reality there is no linear relationship between the number of EAs and the risk. Why this is so you will understand by studying portfolio theory.

And if the Expert Advisor yields more % - still there are such signals and sell Expert Advisors.

You should have studied mathematics in school - it's too late now.

Suppose that an adviser or bank (or other type of investment) gives a stable 5% per annum. No matter how you divide the deposit in parts, and you will never get more than 5%, if the yield is stable.

The other thing is that Advisors do not give a stable yield.

And as for selling EAs, because trading is unstable, you can get an additional source of income as a safety cushion in addition to trading, by selling EAs.

I think it's never too late)

As Lomonosov said: "Math should be taught at least because it puts the mind in order."

It's too late for you to learn everything, you can only lash out at people, I understand your difficult childhood, thankfully the internet is a place to vent your aggression.

Don't think for others. It's too late for the green one - he can't do classical maths because he has his own maths.
