Strategy and code

[Marc mart]

I'm new to mql5, asking about strategy code.

If I sell my strategy/indicator, will the source code be hidden or public to buyer or to anyone else, in every way? 

[William Roeder]

Depends on what you sell, the code or the compiled indicator.

[Marc mart]

I'll sell the compiled indicator. Source must remain private. I'm not a coder but the question is very important for me. Is absolutely guaranteed the privacy of the code? Mt platform too?

Don't post the code; your responsibility. The platform is not private; anyone can download and run it.

Anyone can download the compiled version right? In this way the code is not visible. Or I'm wrong?

1. Only if you publicly post the compiled version. Research the Market
2. Only if you post the code in the same location.
