Predicting Closing Prices

Do you have an actual, verifiable track record of this? Lots and lots of people "feel like" their methods are successful - at least until they actually record all the results. Nearly 100% of the time, the harsh bright light of reality turns those successes into failures.

If you find that you have a method that actually has positive returns and is scalable, I can't imagine why you'd want to sell it. If it sounds like it would be successful, but is not for a variety of more or less subtle reasons - well, there's a lot of guys on YouTube selling lots of variations of those.
So this is where my partner and I have a difference of opinion. I feel like we should just trade the thing ourselves since it appears to work well. He wants to try to sell it.
 
1) How much do you generally gain?

2) What is holding period?

3) How do you currently manage losses?

4) What’s your biggest loss?

1.) My average winner is 1.3x my average loser.

2.) 30 minutes

3.) I just place a stop at a level where I think the trade idea would be invalidated

4.) I don't have a biggest loss that deviates far from the average loss. There have been no large losses and that is simply due to ALWAYS using a hard stop

Do whatever works well for you. Don't try to reinvent your wheel.
 
Instead of selling me an app for say $10k that will make me a million dollars, I would rather you simply give me the million, less the $10k. What the hell. Keep an extra $10k for beer money. After all, if it would make me a million, it would make you a million, too. Over and over. Cest pas?

If you can produce a 3-year verifiable record with 60% and a 1.3 win/loss ratio...NET of spreads, commissions and fees...and if your system is scalable...then you might have a bit of interest from investors.

But, if after 3 years, you've produced those numbers, then you'd be foolish to give it up.

I would be curious to know the percentage your system is giving you a bullish signal in this bull market :)
