Forex Newbies – Why Not Give Forex Robots A Try?
It took me several years of losing money and experimenting with lots of different systems before I started to consistently make money from forex trading, and it’s the same for a lot of other people as well. Very few people start making profits straight away.
Furthermore some people go through a steep learning curve and often blow a few bankrolls and still can’t devise a profitable method of trading. In fact estimates suggest that around 95% of forex traders actually lose money, so is it really worth wasting so much time and effort learning how to trade successfully, when there’s no guarantee you will be profitable at the end of it?
Well luckily you no longer need to because forex trading robots are now widely available to the general public. They used to be used exclusively by trading professionals working for large banks, but that’s not the case any more. You can now purchase complete trading robots for a very reasonable price that will place trades for you automatically. Best of all they are programmed to make winning trades using complex algorithms and technical data.
This means that you don’t need to know very much about forex trading yourself. All you do after you’ve purchased the trading robot is to set it up to work on Metatrader4, which is a charting platform used by a lot of reputable brokers, and then enter your stakes. The robot will then place trades automatically every time it’s specified trading criteria are met.
If it’s a good system, then it should hopefully make money for you, although you have to be careful about which robots you buy because they are not all as profitable as they may at first appear. All robots are capable of losing money sometimes, but if you choose one that has a solid track record over the past few years then they will often live up to their billing.
The best forex trading robots are the ones that stick to sound money management rules which means that they keep losses small and set their targets further away than the stop loss. These are the ones that have the capability of accumulating wealth over the long run, and are generally much more profitable than some of the more hyped up trading robots that are currently on the market.

Forex Robots – the Best Robots Double Your Income Quickly Myth or Reality?
I have been a trader for over 25 years and have never seen any system or trader double their money regularly, this includes even the world’s top traders on millions a year in salaries and bonuses. Of course if it were true, no one would work – banks and investment houses would sack there dealing teams and use a $100 Forex robot of course, this has not happened.
If it looks to good to be true it is and this is the case with Forex automated trading systems.
You can win at Forex trading and make a lot of money but let’s look at why the facts don’t add up in relation to the robots first.
Where are the Real Audited Track Records?
Try and find one and your in for a long search!
You get mostly back tests ( done knowing the closing prices) which is easy, or track records from the vendor themselves Its up to you if you believe them – but lets look at a fact of Forex trading which shows you why you cannot guarantee regular profits.
Fact: Forex markets cannot be predicted and do not move to mathematical formulas so if they don’t what use is a complex mathematical algorithm? None!
It’s a known fact that simple systems work best, as in Forex your trading only the odds, not certainties. In an odds based market, a simple system is more robust, with fewer elements to break than a complex one. Its obvious Forex markets don’t move to mathematics as if they did, we would all know the price in advance and there would be no market!
So can you make money trading Forex?
Of course you can but its not as easy as spending a $100 or so and making money with no effort that’s not life and certainly not Forex trading.
The way to win is to get yourself a simple Forex trading system and get the right Forex education, get confidence and trade with discipline. If you do this, the rewards can be life changing but you have to make an effort.
If you are serious about making money at Forex trading, don’t think you can simply do it with no effort.
We marvel at how technology changes our lives for the better and many think it can help in Forex but the fact below will dispel this myth.
Fact: In the last 30 years, we have seen huge advances in technology in trading yet, the ratio of winners to losers remains the same – 95%. So technology, robots etc haven’t helped.
If you want to win in Forex trading get the right education and don’t believe in the automatic income, with no effort myth. If howeveryou do take Forex trading seriously and make an effort, huge rewards await you.

Automated Forex Trading with MetaTrader 4 Expert Advisor
MT can trade any pair of currencies. You can also customize the system to trade in more currencies, on your approval. You can also use MetaTrader to analyze any historical data. With Expert Advisors installed, MetaTrader responds to market movements. That is any upward or downward move of prices alerts MetaTrader into action (of selling or buying).
With MQL 4, you can create your own custom indicators or alerts, with your own scripts and libraries. MetaTrader Expert advisor is a MetaTrader 4 add on, which automates the trading process based on your settings. An expert advisor for MetaTrader automates opening and closing of trades. The software has direct connection with your Forex account and uses a set percentage of money for trade and investment.
You can set more than one Expert Advisor for MetaTrader and each EA can be set to book profits at assigned points. If the currency shows negative trend, MT opens another trade to book profits at assigned margins and buffers the loss from the first trade.
MetaTrader expert advisor is only a tool that you can use to automate your Forex trading strategies. In other words, MetaTrader 4 Expert Advisor allows you to script your strategies and attach it to the MetaTrader platform. Thus, the software implements the strategy that you have taught the system, without the need of your interference.
With MetaTrader Expert Advisor, it is just like you doing the real business. Only difference is, your Forex trading strategy is put into an autopilot.

Automated Forex Robots – Why They Don’t Live Up to the Hype and Lose Money
The Forex robots you see advertised online with great track records all have a problem – the track records are simulated back tests or to put it another way made up.
The fact the vendor can choose where to buy and sell, knowing all the closing prices, makes it easy to make gains and of course, the gains you see are obviously not going to repeat and the reason is obvious – if they did, the vendor would keep quite and make a fortune, or sell the system to a major investment house for millions of dollars.
The people who promote these automated Forex robots, have the good sense not to trade them, as they know that a naïve or greedy trader will give them a guaranteed profit by buying the software so:
Do any of automated trading systems make money?
Yes they do and you can search some out, that have real performance and you can even get free ones that make money (we are big fans of The 4 Week Rule which has made savvy traders countless millions over the last 25 years ) but you have to keep the following points in mind when trading even the best robots.
- The best robots can make 50- 100% annual compound gains and are long term
- Drawdown periods normally last for a few weeks to a few months
- The size of drawdown varies by is typically 25 – 50% in size
They are long term and you must understand how and why they work, so you can follow them through long losing periods with discipline.
The big gains and no drawdown only exists in simulations, in the real world, even the best systems drawdown for long periods and you need to have the right Forex education on how and why it works, so you have confidence and discipline to follow the signals exactly.
The automated Forex Robot industry has a bad name and that’s due to the myth that simulated profits, you see on the made up track records, will repeat in real life and of course they don’t.
The good news is there are some automated Forex trading systems with real track records which can and do produce big long term gains.
Pick the right one, appreciate you have to judge long term and ride out short term periods of losses and you will enjoy currency trading success.

Selection of Forex Trading Expert Advisors With High Profit Returns
However searching for a profitable expert advisor is no easy task and for beginners and many intermediate traders, it’s pretty easy to get lost and possibly even get ripped off of your money by the many scammers that pervade the websphere, if you are not well informed. The Forex trading systems’ market is heavily flooded with expert advisors that make wonderful claims and offer great results, but most of these sites can never provide iron-clad evidence to back up their claims. These sites usually contain over emphasized sales letters along with pictures of limousines and mansions, they are pretty obvious to spot out and if you happen to encounter one of them, please do yourself a favor and stay well away from them.
Although with that being said there are a few legitimate expert advisors available on the market, which can make you money while you learn the ropes. They are really great tools to have in your trading arsenal, and can even be better utilized with proper money management. All you need to do on your part is know how to find them and then pick which one is suited to your trading style and experience level. I have used a few of the available expert advisors on the market today and have traded them with some level of success. So I am going to reveal to you few essential things to look for and consider, when looking for a profitable Forex expert advisor, with proven track records. This will help you separate scam from the real deal and help you make some good money off the Forex Market.
There are a few key things to look for, when making your pick of a good Forex Expert Advisor and software, they are:
1. Make sure the seller of The EA is the creator and an email contact is offered for any inquiries. Also the website and creator shouldn’t hesitate to provide you with extra info on how the system works and elaborate on its strategies without pushing for a sale.
2. Always look for Forward test statements. Backtest statements and results are pretty much useless and can be easily forged so there are not much good in them.
3. Provide regular ongoing after sales support – this is absolutely essential as the Forex Market is continually evolving and all EA’s need to be adjusted in order to adapt to market conditions.
Therefore if you’re looking for an expert advisor to automate your trading decisions then stick to these basic guidelines. It is no secret that in order to succeed in the world of Forex Trading, you must follow a good trading system and stick to strict money management techniques. An Expert Advisor can greatly simplify the process and get you well on your way to becoming financially successful trading the forex market.
