    Petko’s Million-Dollar Question: Why Do I Share My EA Profits?

    Why do I publicly share my EA profits, withdrawals, and trading results? The answer might surprise you. ⭐️ Visit IC Markets to open a demo or live account: IC Markets: https://link.algotradingspace.com/FUwxZ A few days ago, I asked a simple question: "What is your biggest trading goal?" In this video, I answer dozens of responses from the Algo Trading Space community and explain why I publicly share my expert advisor profits, withdrawals, and live trading results. We discuss realistic expectations, prop firms versus live accounts, diversification, account growth, risk management, and the common mistakes that prevent traders from reaching their goals.

    3 Things Holding You Back in Algo Trading

    Most traders think the problem is finding the right EA — it’s not. ⭐️ Open a BlackBull Markets demo or live account: https://link.algotradingspace.com/IyEAf In this podcast, we break down one of the biggest misconceptions in algorithmic trading — the idea that success comes from finding the perfect expert advisor. After analyzing a poll where most traders said finding a winning robot is their biggest challenge, we explain why that thinking is actually the problem. The real obstacles are mindset, expectations, and how traders handle drawdowns, risk, and consistency. We go through what truly holds traders back, what actually matters when building a portfolio of EAs, and why no system works all the time. This is a practical discussion focused on shifting your approach from chasing “perfect strategies” to building something that actually works long-term.

    The First Prop Firm That Agreed to a Podcast

    Hola Prime is the first prop firm to agree to appear on my podcast - here’s what they revealed. ⭐️ Grab a challenge from Hola Prime here: https://link.algotradingspace.com/IXHdX Remember to use the code ALGO10 to get a 10% discount on any of the plans. In this episode, Petko is joined by Sam, Director of Growth at Hola Prime, for a deep and honest conversation about how to pass and stay funded with prop firms using expert advisors (EAs). Instead of rehashing the basics, they dive into real challenges traders face, from drawdown breaches to risk mismanagement and consistency rules that can quietly fail your account. Sam explains how prop firms view EA trading, why using off-the-shelf robots is risky, and how to build and manage your own algo strategies for long-term success. Whether you're trading manually or with bots, this episode offers real insight into what prop firms are actually looking for, how their backend systems work, and what you need to do to stand out and stay funded. A must-watch for any prop trader working with robots, strategy builders, or trading automation tools.
