I do not trust robots. Even most of those robots that won prizes in the annual Automated Trading Competition failed to stay profitable over a period of at least 2 years.

so far... there has NEVER been a profitable long term bot.

One thing I told Buck was that I wasn't trying to convince him to do away with the robots. I told him to do what makes him money and gives him peace of mind.

What I did do was disagree when he said a robot is better than a manual trader. Those 5% that know how to trade do better because they can manage the trade and adapt better; unlike a robot who is programmed to have rules.
Oh dont worry mate, i know the developer so yea i sort of know how to set the robot up, its doing quite good on my live account roughly 120% growth over march on my Tester 3000 USD account (live test)(real money)

i did loads of back tests on different settings as in what percentage risk, what max trades and lot sizes so fit my winning robot right now.

market needs some lithium.

i think it's a ruse.

my guts been wrong before but i 'believe' we sell off into the US session.

don't trade that... just a hunch looking at the DT on the 1hr.

US I think hinges on JP Morgans earnings due before open.

Maybe great earnings are built in , any disappointment will certainly drop markets and eu due to this.

That robot isn't responsible for your 26% loss since you started using fxbook is it?

Morning all. I see I lost the last trade short ,hit sl.Ok ,but apparently bull is being sabotaged again & endangered ,possible double top ,cup & handle formation bullish in nature though , buy set up perfection H1 to lead to down,h4 buy cd 9th running & to have a buy signal price need to go below 8th 1.3602 by min 4 h4 candles so no great upside break perhaps & at the same time new setup forming possibly sell type price may go 4 H4 candles close upside if to continue & so a new high can be made also 1.3723.
Anyway next to double top 1.3684 or new high 1.3694/1.3723 now should enhance the good down movements & if so then bull possibly over.Gap still there too.
will look shorts again at the top.

Well its actually the the 41% loss, but im coming back up step by step, reason for that 41% loss was i was still using the unupdated version, ever since the 41% loss ive moved it to the newest version and its steadily moving my 41% loss back up, but since march ive been running the Updated version on my Live account with 3000 to start with
right now im roughly around 3600 20% increase

No SERIOUS traders with robots would enter a competition.

You are not only a stinker, you are a liar too. You and giving me peace of mind? Thats really the tip of the crown!

My robot was ready before I even put my first post in this forum and my manual trading profit was there also. Wouldn't say I have nothing learned here. I do as always, but for sure not a bit from you, honey! Anyways, if people believe that bs what you are pushing around its their problem.
I lied? How can you say I'm a liar. It's in my post history . Here you go...

a demo account also different parameters and restrictions as a real trading account or backtesting. Look, don't let me influence your style of trading if it works for you and gives you piece of mind. Pippy's post was a good one. I suggest reading it. When you learn how to pick probabilities based on patterns, lines along with good r/r & mm, you will make more money in a shorter period of time that a robot can. I dn't know about you but time is one statistic I DO consider.
And if you're not a woman, please don't call me honey.

good morning everyone.

my trades came actually in the middle of my night (Cet), but its good to see that my anal-ysis was correct from 3625-3656. Well I would normally haven taken the trade, but as mentioned yesterday I was a little busy enjoying life, one needs to do this also and its not always on the weekends.
Ot seems we have a day started above pivot, two trades come into my view straight away. Short from R1 to pivot 3641 to 3600 or long from 3644 to r2 3677. I would now prefer the long trade. Lets see what franky does ....

Good trading,

Oh well, the thread seems to be approaching one of it's seasonal Lows again...

Btw, I'm not against Robots. I dig 'em. Robots are a great topic... on this thread. Here, they just get Old after awhile. Dude... 34 posts to date about Your Robot and you've only been posting a week... just sayin.


Btw, these guys just looked in my window... Should I be worried?

Good morning Trading cat, well done at this risky times too . good trading plan also . if the first works , as I think a regular pa , back to new support /supply area as d retraced halfway & go bull for d for a new top and 2nd when consider going for double top perhaps & risking down again. how I see . 1.3668 can do also retrace to 1.36 for the up , perhaps may not beyound 1.3828 .not trading though.

intel just spiked us. if its any indication of the future. usdx should go down further. yes i see the possibility. .. those white triagles show what happend before the dips. atm were in the process of possibly making another if the working candle doesn't get a LL. but 80 although a even number doesn't mean much to me.. the other chart has a bunch of predictives. from November. some are real fibs most are not. 79.61 is not. 79.61 is more important to me. u.s earnings is a volatile time.

oil /gold ect. seem to be...
still watching.. the bear usdx triangle can now be bull.. both eu and usdx have more room to weaken. but things are developing. if u.s. earnings dont knock the cover off the ball i expect a down move. if commoditys get involved. we could be set up for a bigger move. still in the works.. but not a sure thing..

bear one before after looking at it could of gone bull also.. but after seeing the eu one and the tl stop i changed this.. usdx bull or bear wedge atm is subjective. i was hoping L/L touched lower wedge tl and bounced. anyway its unisex at the moment
