Thread: How to find investors?

If I already have an account and my intention is to attract investors, could anyone give me some advice on how I should do it? Methods, experiences... What attracts the attention of investors? How can I capture their interest?

The first thing you should understand is that no one is going to trust your money just because you say you are good. You need solid, verifiable and consistent results. Post your performance on recognized platforms like Myfxbook or MQL5, and keep it up to date. Transparency is the first filter investors use to differentiate amateurs from serious ones. But that�s not all. You have to create a personal brand. Yes, as if you were a product. Use social networks, create a thread with your operations, explain your vision, interact. The investor not only buys profitability, but also buys trust.

Looking for investors without first having experience managing foreign capital is like wanting to fly a plane just because you played Flight Simulator. It�s not impossible, but highly likely to end up crashed. Start by managing small accounts of friends or family and learn to manage pressure. Once you have results, arm a clear presentation: profitability, drawdown, risk/benefit ratio, average time in operations. Don�t get bored with words, be concrete. And remember that more than money, they�re giving you their peace of mind.

A good strategy to get investors is to show discipline. You don�t need to have a million-dollar account, but you do show that you know how to control losses. Nobody is going to put money with someone who risks 50% per operation. It�s also key that you know how to communicate. The way you explain your decisions, your trading plan, and your risk control can make someone interested in your proposal. Investors want clarity, not miracles.

There is a big difference between trading with your money and trading with others. With yours you can be wrong without external consequences, but with foreign capital every move counts double. If you want someone to trust your money, start by showing that you can protect it better than if they had it in the bank. Profitability without risk control is like running a Ferrari without brakes.

You do not attract investors asking for money. You attract investors generating interest. Show what you do, tell your process, your decisions, your mistakes. Let them see that you are real, not another smoke seller. And please, if you are going to show results, do not use demo accounts or edited photos. Credibility is built slowly and lost in seconds.

You want direct advice? If you don�t know how to find investors, you�re not ready to have them. This isn�t about asking, it�s about demonstrating. Investors aren�t fools, and money doesn�t fall from the sky. If you don�t have something solid to offer, I�d better keep learning before going out looking for capital.

Today there are many platforms where you can find investors: ZuluTrade, Darwinex, MQL5 Signals, etc. But they all require the same: consistent results. It's not enough to be good for a week. You have to show that you can stay in control for months, even in drawdown. That's what they're really looking for.

Want attention? Gain attention. Work well. Publish results. I answered questions. Actively participate in forums. The community is your best ally if you know how to use it. Being arrogant or mysterious only drives away those who might be interested. Transparency, humility and constancy are your best cards.

90% of people who say they want investors just want someone to pay them to operate without risking the same thing. And that doesn�t work. If you want them to take you seriously, you have to put your money into play as well. Nothing generates more trust than seeing the trader risking with the investor.
