**Frequently asked questions** Friends, Midas is truly a powerful system, but like any tool, it requires proper handling, be patient and practice...
MUST READ BEFORE GETTING STARTED The Midas multi-indicator combines many proprietary and classic indicators used by every trader; it was created to save time on analysis. There's no need to question the effectiveness of the basic indicators (levels, volumes, and liquidity) - absolutely everyone uses them, and success depends only on the traders themselves! ‼️**Midas** - is not a 'golden grail', not a magic 'money' button and, certainly, not a banal signal bot where you need to blindly enter every trade! ‼️**Signals** - are just notifications about a potential rise or fall in price, created to save you time searching for the birth of trends (70-80% of the time the market trades sideways) ‼️**Trades** should only be opened after conducting a comprehensive chart analysis, using your own judgment and your own trading strategy; that's exactly why there are so many tools here! ‼️**Get started** it's better to start with backtests on historical data to understand how the indicator works and adjust it to your trading style. Use the 'market simulator' in TradingView - open virtual trades until the result suits you, and only then start real trading, beginning with small amounts, always following risk management and setting stops that protect you from losing your deposit!
Which markets and assets does the indicator work with? Midas works equally well with any assets and timeframes - crypto, stocks, forex, futures, currency pairs... One tool for all markets!
Is the indicator suitable for scalping or investing? 5 built-in strategies let you change the speed of signal generation - you can either scalp every price move on lower timeframes or find the market bottom for long-term investing!
Are the indicators updated? I regularly improve my indicators and add new features; after paying for the plan, you get all updates for free immediately on the release day. After a new version appears, you'll see a purple circle with arrows next to the indicator name on the chart - click it and press "Update to the latest version" - the indicator will update automatically.
How can I pay for the indicator and how long does it take to activate? You can pay in any convenient way directly in the official bot - it will show you the available options and process the payment in a couple of minutes.\ After payment, access is activated automatically right away.
You have a collection of free indicators, why pay? Midas is years of team work, not a collection of other people's indicators. Yes, some of the tools are based on well-known open algorithms - but each of them has been heavily reworked and tied into one system: end-to-end analysis for every script, its own alert system, strategy settings, signals, targets, take-profits, and stops. Plus our own proprietary scripts that don't exist anywhere else. And this is not a set of files, but an ecosystem for a quick start: trading academy and a closed community are included.
What do I get for this money? Isn't it expensive? You'll save a lot! Because any subscription includes a set of two top indicators + lifetime access to the trading academy + lifetime access to the private Midas Vip-Club community. For comparison, similar products are usually sold separately and prices range from $150 to $1500 per month, and most often only annual subscriptions are offered without a trial! That's why we offer a free trial period: we're confident in the tools and prefer that a person test them themselves, on their own market, rather than take our word for it. Access to the entire Midas ecosystem is included in any plan - the benefit is 3-5x. And if it's not for you after the trial, no one will try to convince you otherwise. It's important to us that the community includes people who truly resonate with this approach to trading.
