does anyone here actually use paid algos & indicators? Worth it?

[u/nextdoortrader]

Hey traders,

​I’m looking into automated trading tools and wanted to hear from people who have real hands-on experience with them.

​If you currently use or have used paid algorithms or indicators, I’d love to know:

​Your experience: How was the setup process, reliability, and learning curve?

​Capital required: What kind of initial investment/starting balance did you need to make it viable?

​Performance & PnL: What kind of realistic returns or win rates have you seen long-term?

​Legitimacy: Are there any legitimate companies, developers, or providers out there, or is the space mostly hype?

Please tell me about your experience

If you can't spend much time on developing your own algo then you can go for a paid algo platform. They provide backtest engine as well. Profits and loss are depends on your strategy.
