When you hear the term Forex Trading Robot, what exactly do you think that means ? I have clients that actually think it is some kind of science fiction space creature. Actually, the term means Automated Forex Day Trading System ! Some people like to call these so called Forex Robots, Expert Advisors (EA) or Algorithmic Trading Systems (ATS). A Forex Robot is simply an automated trading program that opens and closes trades when a set of technical parameters are triggered. Today’s trading robot’s can open, close and use the most intelligent money management schemes imaginable.Even though these Forex Trading Robots or Expert Advisors are extremely advanced and can be used on any liquid financial market, the Forex Market is ideal because a several reasons. First, the Foreign Exchange Market or Forex is open 24 hours a day, six days a week and that gives the Forex Robot plently of time to evaluate any market. Second, the natural trading flow of the Forex Market lends itself to Robot Trading because of the constant up and down of the movement. Lastly, and probably most importantly is the fact that a trading robot does not trade with emotion. The Forex Robot simply gathers all the market data, and if a set of trade parameters are hit, the trade is taken without hesitation. Humans have a terrible problem sticking to rules and hesitating when a trade is prompted. Using A Forex Expert Advisor will help tremendously is this aspect of forex trading.
The Forex Robot trades your account while the market is open using highly sophisticated, algorithm logic designed by professional traders and money manangers. When you search for your Forex Robot, you will find many professional type profitable trading robots that were not available to retail traders. A few years back, many of the Expert Advisors or Forex Robots were not available to the new trader. Do your homework, and find the one that is right for you. There are many good ones to choose from.
The Fx Market is a dripping with opportunity as well as risk. Please do your very best to make sure the Forex Robot you pick to trade your hard earned money is working properly.

There is certainly no reason not to diligently test and refine your forex strategy, but using back-tested trading results is an extremely misleading way to sell a forex product.
Most people who enter the Forex Market to speculate on the normal fluctuations of the market rely on Expert Advisors, or commonly called Forex Robots to conduct the buying and selling of currencies automatically. Simply, the Expert Advisor or FX Robot use a pre-determines set of parameters to enter and exit the market seamlessly.
Most of the so called Forex systems that are being advertised today use a process called Back-Testing. These Back-Testing results are used to mislead the new Forex Trader into buying a product. I will get to how the entire process works in a bit, but first it is imperative for you to realize just how phony these phantom results are. Have you seen websites selling an expert advisor that produces ungodly amounts of money, or the very amusing 99% winning trades claims? How about the ones that will guarantee profits, or you will get your money back ? Now, why on earth would anyone with any sense sell such a profitable winning system for $97 dollars? Am I getting your attention yet?
These very shady system sellers are simply trying to entice the sheep to buy something that is basically worthless, and this is how the scam works.
First, they use a basic system with many inputs that can be adjusted as needed on past data to make the results appear excellent. Second, all the trade data is based on past data. Finally, these rodents adjust the expert advisors inputs on the past data to falsely advertise their system. Now, it is time for these folks to hire a marketing company to peddle this pile of dung to people who do not understand how it works. I can say this because I was a victim of their tactics.
The Metatrader Tester was created to test strategies and inputs, not too sell a product. Do not fear, because I have a few steps you can use to avoid buying worthless forex system’s.
You need to find a forex system seller willing to post all live trade results on a daily basis. Most people call this forward test results, but we like to call it live trade results. The Expert Advisor needs to provide a  trial of their product before you commit to it. When you start trading currencies, nothing can be more important than excellent customer service to help in times of trouble. If you have to wait days for help, or to answer a few questions, that should give you an idea of who you are dealing with.

I have been trading the Forex Market for almost 10 years and without any doubt in my mind, any retail forex trader needs to use a profitable expert advisor in my opinion. There are many reasons I say this, and I will try to hit on the most important reasons an expert advisor is the only way to trade. First, trading a winning expert advisor takes the emotions out of all your trading decisions. If you are new to Forex Trading, you know exactly what I am saying. Second, the Forex Market does not close. This fact alone will invite bad behavior to your trading strategy. I can not tell you how many times I took a trade just to take a trade that ended badly. At least in the stock market you are done when the day closes, but the Forex Market does not close. Third, when you set your expert advisor in motion, you need to let it do what it does and do not get in the way of it. What I mean by that is, do not let your emotions close or open a position, no matter what the particular trade is doing. I can not tell you how many times I interfered with the natural course of expert advisor produced trade, just because I thought something might or might not happen. Do yourself a favor and put your Forex Expert Advisor on a quality virtual private server or (VPS) to monitor your expert advisors trades. Last buy not least, trading a quality forex expert advisor takes the stress of manually trading a strategy away. In my opinion, Forex trading will be mostly automated in the future. Automated trading systems and Forex Expert Advisors will be the only way to compete in this incredibly liquid market.
Take your time and evaluate the automated trading systems and expert advisors that are offered today, because many of them available today are the professional variety that were not available to the retail public just a few years ago. It is your job to evaluate them and ask questions about how it trades. Most, if not all expert advisor developers will never tell you what triggers their trades, but knowing what is used to trigger the trades is a fair question to ask.
I noticed a few Free Forex Expert Advisors around the internet lately. I did evaluate a few of them and I was actually very pleased with what I found. In order to be able to trade these terrific expert advisors, all you need to do is open a live forex trading account with a small amount of money. I have spent many dollars on many Forex Systems and Expert Advisors just too find out that some free expert advisors actually perform much better then the EA’s I have purchased in the past.

Before you take the big step to trade the currency markets, a very wise man told me to build a Forex Toolbox before you even make one trade. At first, I had no idea what this very astute friend and hugely profitable forex trader meant. Simply, he told me to do whatever possible to put the odds in your favor, because you will every edge you can find. I immediately started creating a detailed trading plan of my own.
First, I found a Fx broker that had low spreads on the trading pairs I would be trading. Remember, the bigger the spread, the more the Fx broker makes and the less you make.
Second, I heard you can receive free forex trading rebates from Introducing Brokers (IB) for all your trading activity. When I started evaluating these IB’s that offer this great deal, it was crystal clear to me, I needed to join right away. You get these rebates if you win or lose a trade.
Third, now it was time to build or find a stable expert advisor to do all my forex trading. An Forex Expert Advisor is simply a automated forex system that trades automatically on the metatrader platform. I realized this was a the superior approach because I always had problems with getting emotional while trading, and that will kill any trading account in a hurry.
Fourth, my money management in the past was horrible and I needed to find the right lot size to trade with my account size. I went to work and created a simple, yet powerful money management scheme that I adhere to for all trades.
Finally, It was time to find a dedicated virtual private server (VPS) to run my EA. At first, It was a bit overwhelming, but when you get everything set up it is exactly like running your home PC.
As you can see from the above points, your Forex Toolbox has some structure and it is up to you to do your homework and create you own FX toolbox.

To really understand the behavior of a currency on the Forex market it is important to see how it has behaved over a period of time. Taken over the course of a very short space of time, it is possible to make data mean just about anything. This, in turn, means that the data will be almost worthless. Over a longer period of time, however, patterns always seem to assert themselves, and establish a firm basis for predicting the future behavior of a currency price. Among the most important figures that appear in a pattern are the support and resistance points.
The point of “support” for any currency is the price level beneath which a currency never trades – effectively its market “bottom”. Whenever the price reaches this level, it almost always bounces back upwards, and for this reason many people will invest when a currency hits that point. Conversely, the “resistance” point is the traditional high point of a currency price, above which it never trades. If you are looking to cash out, this is a good reference point.
Of course, the old saying “there’s a first time for everything” exists for a reason. There will come a time when a currency breaks its support or resistance levels, and this is seen as hugely important. When a currency does this it will be expected to continue this trend, possibly for an extended period of time. It is therefore a good time to get “in” if it is rising or “out” if it is falling.

It has been said by many experienced traders that Forex is a more volatile market than any of the available options. The theory goes that it is difficult enough to judge a single company’s value at a given time and in the future, just imagine how hard it is to do the same thing with a whole country. This philosophy takes the point of view that analyzing the Forex market relies on careful reading over a period of time.
Some knowledge of world affairs is also advantageous, as it allows you to be aware in advance of the timing of important announcements which can cause market volatility. Others will treat the Forex market exactly like they would treat any other stock market, and take a more technical approach to analyzing their next step. This is not as simple a process in Forex as it is in the stock market, as the Forex is a 24-hour market, and the data-gathering systems require some modification to work effectively on Forex.
Nonetheless, where these methods of technical analysis have been correctly applied, they have proved to be an effective way of making a profit on the Forex market just as their original forms proved on other markets.
While the first method is more of a global, evidence-based approach and the second tends towards techniques and patterns, both have been proven to be successful if correctly applied. It is highly advisable, though, to recognise which one to apply at a given time, as confusion can easily arise around what exactly the data tells you.
Pick the method that you require and use the other to supplement it. That is the only way you can confidently operate in the long term.
