Yes — you can sell the bots you build with Profectus.AI. How you do it depends on which plan you’re on:

Free Plan

  • You get access to the execution file (.ex5).

  • You can distribute this file directly to other traders.

  • Execution files can be used in MetaTrader 5 but cannot be edited further.

Pro Plan

  • You get access to the source file (.mq5).

  • This allows you to:

    • Add your own licensing code to control distribution.

    • Upload and sell your bot on platforms such as the MetaQuotes Marketplace.

    • Package your bot in more professional ways for clients.

Best Practices Before Selling

We highly recommend making sure your system meets basic quality standards before distributing or selling:

  • Track record: At least 3–6 months of forward testing or verified backtesting.

  • Stable performance: A return-to-drawdown ratio of 2:1 or better (e.g., 20% return with no more than 10% drawdown).

  • Consistent logic: Avoid curve-fitted or “too perfect” settings — they usually fail in live markets.

A strong, transparent track record will make your bot much more attractive to potential buyers.
