That depends. Sometimes a good idea is fairly simple to express in
code, and if given the choice of translating such an idea myself or
paying $1000, I'd do it myself.
Furthermore, when facing the prospect of paying $500 for translating
a complex work, I'd still have to ponder whether the translator is
reliable enough to warrant paying that much for it -- I would assume
that I'd spend as much time translating it myself as I would fixing
the errors and inconsistencies of the translator.
I understand the desire to make money from such a thing. My personal
view is that I'd probably benefit more from learning how to
translate my own work myself than by running it through a translator
that does it for me.
You also have to ask yourself, is there a better trading platform
for porting EasyLanguage source code? WL has some faults that
others may not have. For me, the inability to update indicators on
every tick makes it less usable. Also if the previous thing you
posted is true, about WL not executing stops like it's supposed to,
I'd look to something else. I suspect if you had a translator for
any specific platform, traders may more readily adopt that platform
because a translator is available.
