DislikedOf the 2,944 investable DARWINS, only 14 have AUM > €1,000,000 (0.48%). Of these, DARWIN "THA" has the highest AUM, currently €20,685,599.59. It has been around since January 2015 and took 2.5 years alone to reach > €1,000,000 in AUM for the first time (mid-July 2017), and its AUM has actually been declining since Spring 2024. I don't know, but the numbers aren't exactly impressive and, in my opinion, don't suggest that Darwinex is managing to provide even its top DARWINS with significant investor capital over time, let alone maintain or grow it....Ignored
when you do daytrading you cant bring unlimited money in your strategies, or alpha goes away....you would need to switch to swing trading or long term trading or add a lot of other daytrading strategies.
when you get higher account balance, people like to risk less because they dont want to lose the money under management again, but by bring so less return they lose it often with time... its a crazy cycle you see very often.
if you get fast more money under management, you are not used to trade such big sums and get mindset problems ..... so its very hard for many people to get this stress part correct when money get not up slowly.
are the trades visible for the people who follow the strategies in darwinex ? if this would be the case the alpha would disappear even faster because a lot of people would then copy the strategy and reduce some of the alpha or reduce it to very low values or even let it disappear......
