How does the MQL5 Market algorithm select and recommend EAs for the home page?

Hi everyone, could anyone guide me or let me know what criteria the MQL5 Market uses to recommend an Expert Advisor and feature it on the home page?

I've noticed that some products appear there even without any reviews (stars) or purchases yet.

Is it random, or does the sorting algorithm follow a specific rule?



It was already asked many times (and answered as well).
But it is not much information about it (because the rating products' details are not disclosed).

Products in the Market Catalogue

Hi there, 

I come with one question: how the starting position of the new product is calculated? For example, two different developers are placing two products in the same time, what will define their first place in the catalogue and their distribution to the public in the next hours/days?

Thanks.
