How much does it cost to write a "complex" EA? - page 4

 
NYROBA:

Profitability seems to be OK on the demo account. :)

So on the monitor (paper) the complexity is also good.

If the profitability of the Expert Advisor is confirmed, the money paid for the work will be returned. It turns out that a profitable Expert Advisor is free:)

It goes without saying. :) But how much will the programmer ask for his work?


Count for yourself how much the man needs to maintain his trousers, the programmer needs 3-5 times more to maintain brains. This is only for maintenance.

'A question for people making stable money with their MTS???, this is the page to read. Don't forget the risks...

I already read it, but it's not a confirmation of the profitability of the TS, but the MTS, that is, after writing an EA it is put on a demo for a month and if it shows a profit then the money is returned.

How much does it cost to write a complex EA? (Profitability 2000% per month).

How much have you priced the most time consuming EA you have written before?

I would like to determine the order of prices. :)


That's not the way you should be approaching it. You should not start with an Expert Advisor, but with indicators that will identify the situations you need. Then, based on indicators, when you know everything about everything - an Expert Advisor. This is a long work and a lot of experimentation. This is more of a research activity, not writing an Expert Advisor.


I want to do exactly that - first, create an indicator, and based on it a couple of Expert Advisors for stock and currency markets. :)

That's why I want to start with the prices first. :)

Alex, how much do you price your most labour-intensive EA?

It's hard for me to judge, I'm not a programmer :)

You could look at it from another angle. How much time did you spend creating your system?

"Profitability 2000% per month" is really confusing, it seems that pointing out such a profitability serves to knock down the price, like, think that you will have an EA with such a sweet profitability in your hands...


There have been no difficult EAs. Neither have EAs with such profitability ;). Then, personally, I charge for the time spent on development.

As far as I am aware, you have a very sophisticated trading system on EWA etc. A titanic task. I understand. People with more rudimentary ideas and with much less bloodshed don't find themselves giving the TOR to development.

Please estimate the writing time of your complex EA.

I don't know how long it will take. I'm not a programmer and it's hard for me to estimate the amount of work involved.

How much time did you spend on writing this EA?
That's how you...
Writing and debugging - 25 hours.
That's not what takes most of the time.


What exactly do you spend most of your time on?

I've already read, but it's not a confirmation of profitability of an EA, it's an MTS, i.e. after writing an EA it is put on a demo for a month and if it shows a profit the money is returned.
Do you think a person that has demonstrated his mad success on the demo for a year and a half but hasn't done anything real yet, can make an MTS out of his TS in 9 days? I mean absolutely clear and unambiguous algorithms that he will lay out to the programmer. ...

Formalising the task.

Custom work is not priced by the final cost of the product, but by the amount of labour involved in its creation multiplied by the qualifications of the specialist who created it.


I know what you mean. I have never ordered the writing of Expert Advisors before, so I want to know what's what. :)
