I don't think we disagree so much
Yeah, Darwinex itself is claiming that Pro is introduced as an alternative to an Hedge Fund. Much cheaper, easier, etc. That is good by definition, isn't it? Imagine the big boys who are already managing more than 1M$: In Darwinex right now there are exactly 6 of those. If the new Pro initiative is better than an Hedge Fund, Darwinex probably will bring a number of new super stars. I think that's good. Why?
Again: Talent bring talent and money bring money. That's a hudge benefit! Lack of alpha is one of the major issues Darwinex is facing. Aside from their Marketing which is really crap.
Darwinex figures on average are not so impressive: Only 6 Darwins with more than 1M$ invested. Only 4 Darwins with more than 500K$ invested and less than 1M$. Where are the investors? At the very least D-Pro can bring more capital to Darwinex. And I want my provider wins money to invest in R&D and even Marketing (they reeeally need it).
I'm not afraid they deviate ressources to the Pro guys. They said they will use the same platform, and if I'm correct they will be based on a Darwin, so my conclusion is just the opposite. Platform will have to be more reliable, more stable, etc
I know for sure that D-Pro is not feasible for me, and probably not for 90% of current traders (my perspective is always as a trader). But I want that the top 10% could grow as much as possible. I understand that this could deviate from the original vision. But personally I'm not attached to that. More senior members can have a bond to the romantic original idea... Well, didn't succeed, let it go
