Forex auto trading systems

4 reasons for Auto Forex trading systems

Forex auto trading systems have become very popular for both beginners and intermediate traders. Many claim auto trading systems will produce better results than any sole human can achieve.

Let’s address four key critical areas where a Forex auto trading system helps a trader to better profits.

1. Complex technical analysis is handled by software.
2. Human emotions are removed from the equation.
3. Can trade anytime.
4. One can back test, and forward test on a free account.

1. Technical analysis is used extensively for forex trading. There are a vast number of indicators, many of them involving complex mathematical calculations. More importantly a good system never relies on a single technical indicator but involves several and how they relate to one another. A good Forex trading system uses a computer to analyze these different technical indicators and issue buy and sell signals based on probability of past correlation of these indicators. This is critical as experienced traders often spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars learning different technical indicators and how they relate to one another. We all know computers are great at number crunching and detecting patterns. A good Forex auto trading system uses this huge advantage to benefit the trader.

2. Any experienced trader will tell you the biggest obstacle any trader will have regards successful trading is their emotions. A good trader must master their emotions and this can take several years. An automated system removes the element of emotions, all one does is let the system do the trades. Fear has prevented many traders from entering a position when the technical indicators are positive. More importantly greed has often turned huge gains into losses, just ask any trader. I can’t stress enough that human emotions are a Forex trader’s worst enemy. When you have a trading system that you know works over time you just let it run its course.

3. Forex trading occurs around the clock Monday to Friday. There are systems that run on autopilot, they attach to your trading software and execute trades without your intervention. Institutions, banks, and large broker houses have done this for years. The main reason are for the two items listed above. Now, consider if you live in New York and you are trading the US/EURO. A very active timeframe for trading is during the European business hours, that would be 1AM to 4AM your time. So why not sleep and let an automated forex trading system do the trades for you. And let’s not forget when the Japanese traders are active during their normal business hours.

4. I mentioned being able to do back testing and forward free testing on a forex trading system. If I am to purchase a trading system I want to be able to do a risk-free test of the system. Some systems will give you the exact details of their signals and you can then actually go back in time to the charts and see how effective they were. Also many forex trading systems will provide you with historical records, but keep in mind there are other factors involved and you may be observing ideal situations. As almost every forex broker will provide a demo account you can actually test a system for free using a demo account. This is a MUST. I would never test a trading system with real money.

Forex trading, and Forex trading systems are becoming very popular today mainly because you no longer need $100,000 to open account, in fact you can open account with some brokers with with as little as $100. Also in the past the systems have been cost prohibitive so only large institutions used them. Forex has always offered huge leverage like 200:1 and for this reason has been very popular. You are hearing more about it today because almost anyone can get started for the very little money.

Forex Robots will generally wipe out your account and do it quickly. Only a tiny minority win and they’re not the ones you see heavily advertised. Normal, sensible people fall for the myth they do make money and here are 3 reasons, why you are odds onto lose with them…

The first point to make is that the automated Forex trading systems you see all produce great track records – better in fact than the worlds top fund managers and all for $100! Now, why haven’t banks brokers etc, sacked their multi million pound dealing teams and use a robot instead? This leads to the first key point.

1. The Robots Produce Made Up Track Records in Hindsight

All you need to do is look at the small print and you will see the Robot has never been traded for real, it’s a back test on historical data knowing all the facts and closing prices. The vendor simply buys and sells to make a profit knowing the closing prices and bends his system to fit the data. You can’t bend going forward though and these Robots get a reality check from the market and get wiped out.

2. Starting Equity

Even if the systems were good, the amounts they say you can start with – like $100 are just too small. You are going to have losses on any system and $100 will soon be taken by the market.

3. Money Management is non Existent

Because the track records are bent to fit the data, money management rules are generally non existent.

The reason for this is that they have bent the rules and will leave trades open you would never do in real life. I once saw a robot which claims in several years it had never had one single loss yet, look at the track record and you could see a trade closed for a profit of under 10 pips but losses were several hundred pips before the trade turned around. You wouldn’t do that in real life!

Any Forex Trader knows that success is built on money management and these robots have rules that in most instances are laughable.

Fantasy Profits Reality Losses

If you want to win at Forex trading forget the fantasy of plugging in a $100 dollar software package, with a simulated track record and it giving you profits with no effort instead, focus on learning Forex trading the right way.

How to Win

You need to make an effort and get the right Forex Education – but your efforts will be well rewarded. You can learn to trade in a few weeks and soon be making big profits in around 30 minutes a day.

Treat the markets with respect and you will be well rewarded with a great second or even life changing income, trust a robot with a simulated track record and you will be in the majority of losers.
