If it’s not attaching to the chart, I’d check the MT5 Experts/Journal errors first before assuming the indicator itself is broken. Old indicators can also have compatibility or dependency issues after MT5 updates

I wouldn’t trust any single published list as being complete, especially if newer and international investors matter. These databases are useful as a starting point, but update frequency and the definition of “self-funded” can vary a lot, so cross-checking recent deals and investor activity...

Depends what kind of volatility you actually trade well. Forex usually gives cleaner liquidity and more structured macro drivers, while crypto can move much harder and punish loose risk management fast. I’d rather get consistent in one first than diversify just for the sake of trading both

For someone new, I’d worry less about finding the perfect Bitcoin entry and more about understanding the volatility first. Crypto can move far enough to shake you out even when the longer-term idea hasn’t changed. Starting small also gives you time to learn custody, exchanges and how you...

The levels are interesting, but the part I’d want to see is the full record including losses, SLs and actual execution. Screenshots of completed winners don’t really tell you the expectancy of a signal system, especially on gold where slippage and volatility can matter a lot

“Profitable on any pair and any session” is a pretty huge claim for an EA. I’d want to see a proper variable-spread backtest on reliable brokers such as HFM or IC, forward results and max drawdown before putting it anywhere near a live account. News execution and broker conditions can completely...

Two profitable months on gold don’t tell you much about robustness. I’d want tick-quality testing across several years, maximum drawdown, trade distribution, spread assumptions and verified live results before discussing any serious price. Also may be test it myself on hfm demo, before I...

I wouldn’t use a fixed number of months as the main target. Stay on hfm demo until you can execute one defined setup consistently across a decent sample, including losses, then move to the smallest live size possible. Demo proves the process has some logic; tiny live trading shows whether you...

$2,500 for source code is hard to justify without transparent forward testing across different pairs and market conditions. A few highlighted winning signals or an account doubling doesn’t show expectancy, drawdown or whether the indicator repaints. Though I'd happy test it on HFM demo and...

The indicator might be useful as a filter, but volatility instruments can punish blind arrow-following pretty fast. I’d want to see forward results during ranging conditions and spread spikes, not only screenshots from clean directional moves

Looks interesting for volatility/boom-crash markets, but I’d still test it hard before trusting the arrows. These systems can look great in clean moves and then get chopped up when spreads widen or price ranges. Password/file issues aside, the real test is forward demo results and whether the...

For M1 the first thing I’d check is whether it repaints. A reversal indicator can look amazing on screenshots, but live trading is different because spread, delay and fake moves matter a lot more on that timeframe. I’d test it with fixed rules first before judging the win rate

I’d only judge it after a proper demo/forward test, especially if it’s used for scalping. Arrows and SL/TP markings are useful, but spreads, news spikes, and repainting/late signals can change the whole result. Alerts would be a nice addition though, since watching every signal manually gets old...

Before using V1 or V2 live, I’d test it on the same pairs and sessions for a while. These signal indicators can look clean on screenshots, but the real test is how they handle chop, news spikes and wider spreads. Alerts are useful, but I’d still want price structure confirmation before taking...

With these 2-leg latency/arbitrage tools, the weak point is almost never the settings alone. Demo can look perfect, then live gets killed by execution delays, feed blocking, slippage, or the broker changing conditions once they see the flow
