Full Disclosure of Sales for 8 MT4/MT5 Indicators | 149,574 Yen in 4.5 Months

From April 1 to August 18, 2026, a period of about four and a half months,
my self-developed indicators generated sales of 59 units, totaling 149,574 yen in income.

In this article, I will disclose all of that sales data exactly as it is.
I will even break it down by day of the week, product, and time of day.

Furthermore, in the second half, I will write about what I actually did to reach that point.
This includes the story of being rejected once during the review process, how I determined pricing, how I handled inquiries from buyers, and the story of a product I withdrew from sale myself.

Information in Japanese about "creating and selling MT4 indicators" is
surprisingly hard to find.
I was also feeling my way through it when I started.
I think this will serve as at least the first step for those who are trying to do the same thing.

4.5-Month Performance

First, here are the final numbers.

What is important here is that the selling price and the net income are different things.

The total selling price is 257,820 yen, but
what I actually received was 149,574 yen.
The payout rate is 58%.
This is the result after deducting platform fees and commissions for sales made via affiliates.

How this 58% is determined will be broken down one by one in the second half.

It splits neatly into two figures.

When looking at a figure like "sold for XX yen,"
the meaning changes completely depending on whether it is the selling price or the net income.
All figures in this article are written in terms of net income.

It Varies This Much by Day of the Week

When sales are broken down by day of the week, a clear difference emerged.

Only Saturday is a valley.

With 2 units and 3,828 yen, it is only one-eighth of Monday, which is the highest.
The reason is clear: the currency market is closed on Saturdays.
On days when you don't open the charts, the tools used for charts don't sell either.

What is interesting is Sunday,
which sold 11 units for 27,623 yen, comparable to weekdays.
It is not that the entire weekend is weak, but rather only Saturday is a drop-off.

Looking at the purchase times, 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM is the peak with 13 units,
followed by 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
They are being bought at night while people are watching the market.
I think many of the buyers have other jobs.

Note that the data in this article covers 4.5 months and 59 transactions.
It is not a large enough volume to say "if you release it on this day, it will sell."
As I will touch upon later, nearly half of the sales were concentrated in June,
which overlaps with the time I released a new product.
This means the effect of the day of the week and the timing of the new product release are mixed. I am presenting the numbers as they are, but please be cautious about reading causality into them.

Sales Are Skewed Toward One Product

This is the breakdown by product. Eight products were sold during the period.

65% of the income came from a single product called SMC-Signal.
Combined with the MT5 version, it is 43 units and 115,287 yen, which is 77% of the total.

Even with a lineup of 8, only one is effectively making money.
This was much more extreme than I had anticipated.

Looking at it month by month makes it even clearer.

Half of the total is concentrated in June. This is the month I released SMC-Signal.

In other words, my 4.5 months consist of
a 'month where one hit' and 'all other months'.
It was not built up steadily.

What I will write from here on

This is the extent of the results.
If it's just the numbers, I have presented everything here.

From here on,
I will write about what I actually did behind those numbers.

  • The reason I failed the GogoJungle review once, and the save error I made right after

  • How I decided on prices, from 2,000 yen to 4,980 yen

  • The story of how the 30% affiliate rate is 'not a selectable setting' and the calculation formula for net income

  • How I responded to an inquiry from a purchaser, and what I got wrong

  • The story of updating a product currently on sale 6 times in 3 weeks

  • The story of a product I withdrew from sale due to a bug I found myself

Honestly, there are more stories of failure than stories of success.
However, for those who will do the same thing from now on, I think
the failures are probably more valuable.
