Its easy to make a fake verified account ,that's why most serious investors will ask for a demonstration of trading ability and interview face to face,some will look for past qualifications also.

there are a lot of unverified accounts, unfortunately. If the manager can show his live trade, if he has an account here and he is verified, if there is an opportunity to receive an investment password, then I think that it is worth investing. But nevertheless, the first thing I pay attention to is stability and a balanced trade. Better slowly, but with less risk. Also, investing - this is like trading - you need to know when to go out of the game, because there is no eternal luck.

Dear fellow fx citizen,

I would like to start a new topic for fx managers to share their experiences in getting potential investors. Posting verified live result in myfxbook.com is certainly one of the good ways in attracting potential investors. Besides this, what fx managers will do to solicit new clients?

Cheers,

Wallace

I believe that transparency, consistency and low drawdown (long-term) is what brings investors to an account manager.

NO.
That is absolutely NOT a good way to attract potential investors.
Stats pages are not intended for that use.
Stats pages are easily manipulated and it is a trivial matter to generate unlimited gains with fake stats.

Perhaps the more important questions would be:

1) What kind of returns has your own investment portfolio generated for the last 48 months?
2) Do you consistently generate an ROI of 25% or greater per year?
3) What kind of strategy are you going to use with other peoples money exactly?
4) What is the risk level with your strategy?
5) Why do you need to attract potential investors in the first place?
6) Are you also investing your own funds at the same level that your clients would be?
7) Do you have all your licenses, bonds, insurance, certifications, and corporate registrations completed and current?
8) What kind of guarantees are you offering your potential investors?
9) What region and country are you offering your services in?
10) Do you intend to accept international investors?
11) Do you have a physical office for clients to come to for meetings?
12) Are you prepared to provide read only access to your entire portfolio of accounts, so that the general public has the ability to audit your accounts and verify your investments as being legitimate and accurate?

Soliciting new clients shouldn't even be on your list of things to worry about until you have your own investment portfolio in order and ALL of your legal requirements taken care of in advance of touching even 1 cent of a potential clients funds.

There are hundreds of things that need to be done before you should even consider the question of how to solicit potential investors.

Prove your worth over the long term as a professional investor and you should never need to worry about finding an investor.
They will come to you.

If it looks too good to be true, it's probably a scam! Let the buyer beware.

Are you registered so that you can legally trade with other peoples money? You need to be careful around financial investments. If you make losses they could come for the shirt on your back

I tried to I managed a couple of $$ years ago. It takes big balls to be able. I couldn't for long. The psychological aspect was too much. When a trade goes south , and you prematurely close it, or you are harassed by the client at odd hours for an update. Hats off to you folk who can. I can't.
I will rather sell an EA or system and just keep on trading for myself. Have periodic contact with the customer.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far..Go together..

I just want to ask: Were you ready for this type of step forward (in terms of accepting clients)? What would you have done differently?

Would be nice to get your thoughts.

Excellent.

That shows you have confidence in your trading and your customers understand you have as much to risk or gain as they do.

Keep making them a consistent profit over the long term using low risk trading with proper money management and you'll have plenty of business for your investment fund.

Good job.

I thought I was ready. Thought I had my ducks in a row. Was trading for myself, but then. It was like going from demo to live.. Not my money, someone else's. You'd think it should actually make it easier then. Maybe it does. Maybe the problem is with my personality?

Looking back however, it was a huge mistake allowing clients such intervention. Rightfully clients should only see the balance at month end and thank you for the growth on their account.

But in future, I will rather sell my system or my EA - compare trades. If you take a hit and I don't, it can only be a broker issue.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. It's a path that I would like to take in the near future (only 1 client atm), and will take all of this into consideration.

Just open copytrade account and trade like you want to grow and get profits for your own. I do this. Even i'm high risk taker, to grow small money to big money, now, i got investors joined me. I don't find or do promoting my account via social media or ads, i just trade for my own profits.

However, based on my experience, you will get much investors if you do the ads and promote. But, they will condemn you if you fail and burn out their capital.

So, it depends on your choice.

To me, the most important thing in this business is to be honest. Always tell investors how your business is going in the market. Yeah, you might lose them. But you won't be rumored to be a lying trader who doesn't know how to deal well with investors. Reputation is always more expensive than money. You may still have a profit, but investors may never look in your direction again. So always set your priorities very carefully.
