Forex Newsletter – 14 May 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 14-05-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

Thank you for the overwhelming feedback to my newsletter column last week – “The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet”. This was far and away the most talked about newsletter I’ve ever written based on the comments and emails I received during the week. The feedback was unanimous stating the interest in furthering the user’s trading education.

Many of you told me you are interested in taking more control of your trading and also learning to trade other markets like Futures and Options. I’m proud of the fact we’ve partnered with NetPicks for the launch of their University and believe it’s going to have a significant impact on your immediate trading success, but more importantly your long term success!

If you haven’t already signed up for their webinar, here is a short video demoing their trading system in the markets from last week along with the option to sign up for one of their two webinars this week.

As you’ll learn, these guys at NetPicks are as transparent as you’ll find in this industry. That’s a breath of fresh air in this industry and you know I’m not shy about calling out those that are all hype! I feel very confident you’re going to benefit from their University and I hope you’ll share with me your experience once you’ve gone all the way through their courses.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Forex Trend Dominator is based on price action and other technical variables to identify new trends in providing fast, accurate and profitable trading signals. According to the sales page, the “system contains accurate trend signal alerts for the dashboard and 5 out of the 10 indicators have alerts that may be sent to your email and cell phone”. They provide a nice manual to help you get started with detailed instructions. The system sells for $299.

Indestructible Trend Winner is a new system from Austin Winston that’s another buy/sell Trend Indicator. They are getting great results and you can see a screenshot on their site from their May 14 results (and likely updated going forward). The system sells for $87.

“The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet”

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 07-05-2012


I love this quote from Aristotle. He’s making the point that while the process of education can be difficult, your work pays off through everything you know and can do with the education. What does that have to do with Forex trading?

When I started FX Trading Reviews, my primary goal was to create an honest and reputable site to help sort through the scams and fake review sites so my readers would be better educated to make decisions on Forex products. Many of the reviews and products we’ve followed over the years have been Forex robots – a “black box” product that runs in an automated fashion, making all trading decisions on your behalf.

The great thing about a robot is they are automated, you don’t have to know much about Forex or the market, just let it run. However the downside of the robot is you do not control the outcome of your trading – you’re relying on the developer and the particular algorithm they developed.

Why would the Editor of a site primarily focused on Forex robots talk about the downside of the robots?

As you have seen in some of the products I’ve reviewed this year, I feel strongly that it’s in the best interest of every trader to be well educated and take control of their trading. Forex robots can be a nice complement to a portfolio, but the better educated you are and the more control you can take of your overall portfolio, the more success you will have in the long-term and isn’t that what we all want?

Why do I bring this up today? I have found what I believe to be the best and most comprehensive education for a trader. I have previously shared products and webinars hosted by NetPicks, a stalwart in this industry which has been around for over 16 years. Last week they announced they are creating a “University” to provide a complete trading education. This University will offer Pre-Requisites, an Undergraduate course, selection of a Major (including Forex) and even Graduate level courses. And the great thing is you don’t have to travel to this University – these courses will be taught online so you can attend from the convenience of your home or office. Imagine that, a full education based on years and years of trading experience, taught over a number of days at the most convenient location!

Before I sent the email last week announcing their webinars, I asked their CEO for a preview to the University and I am really excited. I can sincerely say this course is going to better than anything else on the market and will be ideal whether you consider yourself a beginner or expert trader. Not only do you get a full end-to-end education for all types of trading (Day-trading, Swing, Position) and all markets (Forex, Options, Stocks, Futures), but they are also including a proprietary trading system for trading all of these markets!

I don’t like to get too “promotional”, because my credibility and reputation are important, but this has my full backing and I got so excited I even offered to help them as a guest-Instructor down the line. At minimum, I think you should sign up for one of their webinars to hear what they have to offer, I think it’s well worth your time. Here’s a link to hear from the NetPicks CEO and also to sign up for the webinar.

I’ll end with another great quote from Aristotle talking about taking control of your goals with wisdom/education: “First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.”

I’d love to hear your feedback, is trading education something you’re interested in? Are you interested in gaining more control of your trading? Or do you prefer to only run the robots?

Forex Newsletter – 30 April 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 30-04-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

As you have probably experienced over the years many Forex robot and trading system launches tend to have free trading systems, robots, and tutorials offered at the beginning of the sales process. Some are terrible – but some are actually quite useful.

I find when you see a company spend the extra time and money to make their giveaway excellent, the product trying to be sold on the backend tends to be higher quality as well (probably indicates a higher quality company to begin with).

So I’ve decided to collect all the best giveaways that I’ve used in the past and put them on a new section of the FXTradingReviews website, aptly named Free Stuff.

And even better, I’ve worked with each company supplying the giveaway and instead of requiring your name and email address (which will inevitably lead to a bombardment of advertisements) they’re just asking for a simple ‘social share’. All you have to do is click the ‘Share to Get’ button and either connect in via Twitter or Facebook to share this giveaway with your friends and you get instant access to the download. It’s all secure – no one’s accessing anything they shouldn’t on your account (me included) and I think it’s a win-win for everyone involved. Try it out and let me know what you think.

Please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

Finally, remember to Like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter!

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Forex Trend Hunter is a trend-following robot. Their sales page claims they earn “an average of 25 pips profit per transaction, which automatically means that you no longer have to search for the perfect broker who offers the lowest spreads.” The site does not provide any third party verifications of the robot, instead offering links to view screenshots of their back testing. The system sells for $129 and comes with a 60 day guarantee.

Galaxy X is another trend-following strategy, as well as countertrend. This is not a robot, rather a trade replicator because they don’t want to reveal the “core logic secret”. They follow four currency pairs: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, AUD/USD and USD/CAD. On their sales page they claim an average monthly gain of 10-30% and maximum drawdown of less than 22%.  They do have a Myfxbook account for you to track the results of their account.

Forex Newsletter – 23 April 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 23-04-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

I know we put out a lot of information every week and based on the feedback I receive to our weekly newsletter, you all find this information very useful. Thank you for all of your feedback and please continue to feel you can interact with me as my goal is to make you successful!

I received a lot of very positive feedback to the releases of Keltner Bells and TradeVantage. Last week I talked about the differences between the two, but most importantly realize both of these products are back by well-respected organizations which is critical in this business. By the way, Keltner Bells is only available until 8pm tonight (April 23).

I also wanted to remind you of the Demo and Real Money accounts we are tracking on our Robot Performance Page. I hope you visit this page regularly, because it gives you a nice scorecard of how leading robots are performing.

Remember the big fanfare around Volatility Factor a few weeks ago? After initially dropping at the time of its release, notice they’ve made a nice recovery and are currently up 5% on demo our account.

We have our real money on three robots – Million Dollar Pips (up 41%), Wallstreet Forex (up 20%) and Forex Megadroid (up 6%). Not too shabby when you consider how many robots on the market are scams or just don’t perform well. Keep that in mind when you pick your next robot, there’s nothing wrong with going for the “sure thing” rather than the “new shiny object”.

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Top FX Robot is a new automated robot that according to their website “operates on any Forex broker using the MetaTrader 4 platform, and can operate on EURUSD, GBPUSD, EURGBP, USDJPY, USDCHF etc. currency pairs and the H1 timeframe.” What I like most about this robot (and you’ve heard me preach this every week) is the fact that they provide links to both their Myfxbook account and their MT4i account so you can see their results. The robot sells for $159 with a 30 day money back guarantee.

Another new system I find intriguing is being released on April 24 –  the LST System (Learn, Simulate, Trade) released by Vladimir Ribakov which is a “hybrid strategy based on powerful and automated divergence analysis and statistics, taking advantage of the cyclical movement of market prices.” In addition to videos and documentation, LST owners are entitled to participate in Vladimir’s live webinars where he meets with all LST owners and teaches them how to make the most out of the strategy. I believe this has the potential to be a great product.

Two Great Forex Launches Explained

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 16-04-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

Last week you probably received a lot of promotions for KeltnerBells and TradeVantage, two strong yet different systems that I personally am excited about. The feedback I heard from this audience was very positive regarding both products. I did get a few people asking me to summarize what I felt was unique about each so here are some quick thoughts for you to consider:

What I like about KeltnerBells is the fact that it has been proven in real-time markets for close to a year.  That is significant, particularly given the vastly different market conditions we’ve experienced over the last year.  I also like the fact that it really does take just a few minutes, a couple of times per day, to manage your trades and place new ones.

Swing Trading may be new to some of you, but it’s a nice balance where you aren’t trying to scalp out 5 or 10 pips in Forex which can be difficult. Rather the usual target is 100 pips or more, much more reassuring when you’re trading and paying spreads.  Now there is a little bit of work you have to do, you need to learn the strategy, but I continue to hear great feedback about their training. I’m sure you’re someone who realizes a little effort can go a long way — just expect a short learning curve then you’ll be replicating their results.  Here is a link to the KeltnerBells webinar on Thursday where you’ll learn a lot and have a chance to ask questions.

TradeVantage is a bit different.  It actually continuously “optimizes” itself using what’s called “neural networks”.  Now there are pluses and minuses to constant optimizations.  The upside is these types of systems tend to be very in tune with current market conditions.  The downside is the so called backtesting or history isn’t really what was traded back weeks or months ago.  So you have to look at those track records with a grain of salt.  However, for sheer simplicity, TradeVantage certainly has that – come in once every 24 hours, be told whether to Buy, Sell or Hold on a number of currency pairs and then get updates once per day.  The learning curve is almost immediate which is an advantage over most systems, but realize TradeVantage doesn’t have close to a year of actual results like the KeltnerBells. With that said, the publisher of TradeVantage, Dustin Pass, has a very strong reputation with previous products and is very excited about TradeVantage.

I feel you’ll find these are two of the better systems in the market and both are running webinars this week where you can learn a lot more about each. I encourage you to attend both!

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Forex Breakthrough Formula is a new system from Harry Broderick claiming to earn “at least $1200 per day” trading for no more than 20 minutes per day. This is not a robot, rather it’s a manual trading system with proprietary indicators you will plug into your charts. He claims to provide “proof upon proof upon proof” but unfortunately that “proof” is only a series of screenshots of supposed charts, supposed Myfxbook accounts and supposed bank statements. The system sells for $99 with a 60 day guarantee, but I remain skeptical.

RapidPips is a new robot from Jamie Williams. The sales page (accessed when you provide your email address) provides a lot of screenshots to charts and results (again not links to actuals). With regards to the strategy, some notes from the sales page: “RapidPips has been designed to trade on the 5M chart; It leverages an enormously tight stop loss; It works on a simple combination of an indicator and price action to find out and scalp mini breakouts using machine speed with smart trailing techniques; It has an incredible 82% win ratio”. I only wish they had the links to the real results! The robot sells for $197 with a 60 day guarantee.

NewsMiner is a tool to aggregate a variety of news sources to determine the markets and “what’s hot” by compiling information from the internet, articles, news, market signals and then ranks them in popularity. By using heat maps, the trader determines their trading strategy for the day. NewsMiner can be used with Forex, Stocks and Futures. The cost is $49 with a 60 day guarantee.

Swing Trade Your Way To Forex Profits

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 09-04-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

You probably got an email from me this weekend about a unique system called Keltner Bells. This is not a robot where everything is automated; instead Keltner Bells puts the control over your trading success in your hands and you learn from that experience. Keltner Bells only takes 10 minutes a day since it swing trades Forex rather than trying to scalp or day-trade, which is time consuming.

So what is Keltner Bells? In simple words it’s a swing trading system that utilizes the powerful swings of the Russian Kettlebell workout with the unique strength of the Keltner Channel and Range Bar charts. The “Snapshot Trading” feature tells you to trade the method for up to 10 minutes a day and you’ll experience the great results of swing trading!

This is not just another system I’ve come across, I actually use Keltner Bells and it has consistently brought in 1000+ pips in a month across several currency pairs. There’s a lot of software out there, even now that rehashes the past to get great results.  Not the Keltner Bells – I’ve seen it perform in real-time and in my personal account.

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

TradeVantage is the latest release from Dustin Pass. TradeVantage uses “neural network intelligence” to analyze currency pair history and predict their future success. This is the first week of their launch (available next Monday), but they have a great video explaining “Neural Networks in Trading”.

Alexander Collins has released an updated version of his software, now called Forex Thor II. One tactic I like with this new release is they are allowing our readers to download a free trial version before you decide to purchase the product. On their sales page, they provide their Myfxbook results and you can see the account is doing very well. I’d suggest you try it first, but when you’re ready to buy, the price is $249 with a 60 day money back guarantee.

Forex Replicator is a new Forex system for EUR/USD and GBP/USD using historical data to predict price movement. According to their sales page, when they feel 90% confident in a price movement based on previous history, they will give the user an indicator to execute. Unfortunately their site only uses screenshots for evidence of their results, so that’s a red flag for me. The product sells for only $87 and does come with a 60 money back guarantee.

Forex Newsletter – 2 April 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 02-04-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

I get a lot of questions every week about brokers. One that we have a lot of experience with and can highly recommend is FinFX. They have a strong reputation in the industry, as you’ll see with the many positive reviews online.  They are a good choice for US based traders that would like some of the advantages non-US accounts get, and are an ideal broker for International traders.  Some of the other FinFX advantages include:

  • True ECN trading with pips as low as 0.0 pips
  • Up to 200:1 leverage (very helpful for EA’s that add in positions like Tom’s EA to avoid margin calls)
  • Hedging enabled (good for a number of EA’s)
  • Robot/EA friendly (some brokers purposely try to ‘break’ robots)
  • Scalping friendly (some brokers will not allow this)
  • FIFO rule not applied (an advantage for US based traders)
  • Multi-currency and Multi-language support
  • Micro contracts allowed to start small

This is timely! I was alerted to a webinar being hosted by NetPicks this week. As you may recall, they’ve been running a monthly “author webinar series” and this month they’ve invited Robert Green the founder and CEO of GreenTraderTax.com and a leading authority on trader tax.  With US taxes due in just 2 weeks, this webinar is timely and looks like you’ll get a lot of great advice… FREE! Here is the registration link.

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Last week I talked here about the launch of  Volatility Factor. We have the demo up and running on our Robot Performance Page and you’ll see that as of Monday the account is already up 4%! Not a bad start. Hopefully you were able to get in on the early trades and book your winnings. If not, don’t worry, it’s not too late to get Volatility Factor.

Two new robots we heard about this week are Forex Envy and Forex AmeroBot. As Forex Envy explains on their sales page, they “trade 9 currencies on 14 charts using the 30 minute time frame. While running all pairs we expect a 35% return per month, or a 20% return while only running our Long Cycle pairs. Forex Envy clumps a group of trades together and treats all trades in each individual chart as one large trade. Once all trades as a group are profitable we close all trades for a net gain.” I love the fact that Forex Envy provides links to live Myfxbook accounts funded with real money as clear evidence of their success. The robot sells for $379 with a 110% money back guarantee, even if it’s only run in demo. That is a lot of confidence!

Forex AmeroBot is the newest release from Rita Lasker. As she claims on their sales page this is “the first FX robot with intelligent adaptive money management system”. You will set your maximum risk as a percentage of your deposit and the robot will determine the lot size, with the lot size increasing as your deposit grows or you can set fixed lots. I cannot speak to the authenticity of this robot, because as with other robots, Rita Lasker never links to real-time or verified results. Forex AmeroBot sells for $99 with a 60 day money back guarantee.

Million Dollar Pips is Rocking!

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 26-03-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

This week I want to call your attention to the incredible success of Million Dollar Pips on our LIVE account. All of us spend so much time looking for the next great system or robot, yet one of our tried and true robots is up over 50% since November when we opened the account!

This is not a demo, where the conditions are perfect, all orders are filled, etc. This is our own money, invested for the benefit of FXTradingReviews, to show actual results in the real world.

You hear me preach all the time about asking new systems to PROVE their results, well let me back up our Million Dollar Pips results with the link to our own Myfxbook account.

We recorded a video for you related to the results of Million Dollar Pips and tips we can offer from our experience (the broker we use along with other broker options, VPS tips, and you’ll even learn how to test the connection speed with your broker!) . The first half of the video is here and the second half of the video is here.

You should definitely take another look at Million Dollar Pips, the results have been great!

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

This week you’ll receive an email from me for a new product I am sincerely excited about – Volatility Factor. From the creators of Wallstreet Forex Robot (one of the most successful and popular robots on the market) Volatility Factor is being launched on Wednesday, March 28 and from the results on their sales page, it’s doing great! By the way, a breath of fresh air as those results are real-time from Myfxbook. We are setting up our demo today and you’ll soon find it on our Robot Performance Page.

If you are going to buy Volatility Factor, I’d appreciate it if you purchased it from our link as we earn a commission for referring customers. As an incentive to use “our” link for Volatility Factor, I will pay for a full year ($249 value) of the MYFX Auto Trade Management Console.  This is a great tool for anyone trading with MT4 and wanting to add some automation and automated trade management. Of course if you return Volatility Factor the MYFX license will be deactivated since we’re paying your entire license cost — but you’ll have no obligations.

Forex Newsletter – 19 March 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 19-03-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

As you saw in an email earlier, today was the official release of Forex Profit Multiplier. As I’ve told you before, I try to weed through most of the systems we hear about and only notify you of those we feel are legitimate based on results and/or reputation. Forex Profit Multiplier is one of those. As you’ll see from the link, they have a 29 minute video on their site filled with a lot of great information about the system.

With regards to how must the system is and what you get, those details are now available as well. The system sells for $1997 (or 3 payments of $797) with a 60 day money back guarantee. Included in the package is the trade alert software, education software, trading basics, reference materials, lifetime access to the member’s website and one year of unlimited premium email support.

As always, please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Forex Tigress is a robot being advertised as a “strategy that has generated a net profit of $56,232″ with “maximum drawdown of -3.78%”. Those are great results, but as you’ve heard me say many times of late, I’m leery without seeing actual real-time verifiable results. With that said, I like their strategy of only trading one currency pair and the fact they provide details regarding the most profitable days to trade with this strategy and the best time to trade with that particular strategy. The system sells for $97 and is offered with a 60 day money back guarantee.

Forex Signal Absorption is a new signal system that I don’t have any personal experience with. I do not see any real-time trading results on their site and quite honestly their site is one of the saddest I’ve seen. The graphics are poor but the verbiage is worse. I just hope the manual and support is handled better, but more importantly the results are positive. The system sells for $89/month.

Forex Newsletter – 12 March 2012

Posted by | Posted in Automated Forex Trading Systems, Newsletter | Posted on 13-03-2012

I hope you had a great week of trading and best wishes this week!

It’s been interesting watching the US Dollar of late. We are really seeing a resurgence of the dollar against most key measurements. I expect this to continue and with weakness from the EUDUSD and AUDUSD it will be important to your trading. Keep in mind with your robots or system of choice that the best performers will likely be those that follow trends and breakouts based on the big price moves and intraday movement.

Please remember to add your feedback at the Rankings section of the website. The reviews are very insightful and I hope each of you gain value from them. Be sure to leave reviews and both the good AND bad. If you don’t see a robot you want to review, be sure to “Suggest a Product”.

1. New Products Worth Checking Out

Next week the well-respected group at Profits Run will be releasing Forex Profit Multiplier. This Forex robot was released a couple years ago and did very well. They are rereleasing it with two new currency pairs and several other improvements, so I’m really excited. The official “launch” isn’t until March 19, but they have provided a great “Training Lab Video” to get you more information.

Forex Action Signals is a unique offering where the trader issues signals once a day at the same time each day. According to their website, over “the last 26 months the average [they have made] has been 400 pips per month”. Similar to many other signals, Forex Action Signals will provide you the entry, stop and profit targets, but they will also provide position sizing rules that tell you how many lots to trade in order to minimize the risk and maximize the profit. I would feel a lot better about this product if they provided access to a real-time site to verify the results, rather than simply a chart. Forex Action Signals sells for $69/month.
