Is creating professional investment software a good business idea?

So...i am a software developer and thinking on some catching software idea that will sell well. I am considering to create a software that can for instance: Calculate SABR volatility, calculate black-scholes, calculate fx options kholagen model, predict prices based on neural networks, calculate var, sortino ratio, sharpe ratio, follows progress of your portfolio. Anyway...the idea is this to be like a swiss knife for the professional investor. Do you think it will sell? Like...in that economy and given that most mentioned things can already be found free in google. Also, i have about $60k put aside to invest in such venture and planning a price about $500 per one year license. 10x!

So have you given up in the idea of opening an offshore bank for the time being or will you run both projects?

I have about 15 other ideas so to speak...just researching the market imo.

I see. Have you considered setting up a company to train prospective traders? You don't need to know anything about trading, just pretend you are a stock Market veteran of 20 years and you know the secrets the pros use.

Ok, sign me up already.

Heh good point... .
I can even write a book "how I made $2,000,000 trading frozen orange juice futures...and then lost all" - speaking of which the last part of the sentence is never mentioned in this type of books.
Seriously though, I don't think too many people buy into this type of thing - there are obviously newbies out there but competition is fierce and most people are sceptical. I will be called a ponzi 9 out of 10 times and if I sell the "system" it will be for about $50 i guess. Let alone that it will be totally immoral..well.
On a side note, personal finance software is the best selling type of software on amazon - i guess the pro equivallent isn't so popular, but one can specuate with the price then...given that you target hedge fund managers, quants, investors with experience, etc.

Really??????

This is just one of the pies you have your fingers in?

that's why we're talking about selling here and not "selling things that always work".
