    Whole-Lee Bananas!!! Thank you for this. It explains everything. And it actually makes me feel much better about the EA since it's performance has nothing to do with whoever is or was marketing and poorly servicing customers as "Forex Kore". The link you posted comes with fair warning and...

    Seems a slam dunk that it's being marketed under a different name. This review site states as much. https://www.bestforexeas.com/forex-alpha-ea-review/ I get the sense whomever is selling it didn't actually make it. That would explain the reports of there being no customer support on the...

    I'm continuing to work with ForexKore with good results. Since switching to FBS for their penny account, and ironing out some problems I've had, including the EA not wanting to restart after changing inputs, and getting through my own setbacks which were purely my own fault, and adding some...

    Appreciate the testimony, but FPA has been here a long time and they are a sound organization. I lost money with this, about half of a 5k account as I described, but I'm still using it. Call me stupid, maybe, but it did perform quite well for a year before blowing out, and reviewing the...

    A closer look between the FPA and FXBlue account summaries show they are monitoring the exact same account. It is a penny account so actual amounts shown are 100x more than was really traded. Perhaps the FPA version doesn't have the latest update? So the FPA monitored account is indeed dead...

    Apparently the account running the forex kore EA monitored by FPA has been shut down. All open trades have been closed, though the final balance on the FPA demo still shows an healthy overall profit for the life of the run. Separately, the EA run on FXBlue shows the EA has wiped out the...

    Sorry to hear that. I am guessing it was caused on the EURGBP pair. I lost over half of my live 5000 account. Would have been more but was able to salvage it by intervening. This is a Martingale system, and the Achilles Heel of martingale systems are slow steady trends, which is exactly what...

    I have obtained this EA and run it on a demo 5000 USD account, 500:1 leverage which allows hedging and all other criteria as was recommended. I installed it as per the instructions using the correct default setups for all currency pairs. I have run it for 4 weeks complete weeks so far, and...

    Anybody a successful scalper?

    The problem with scalping a demo account is you won't always get the same fills with a live account. With a demo acconut, you'll always get the entries and exits you specify no matter the market volitility. But with a life account, additional processing requried to actually trade real money...

    Problem FastBrokers and FXDD case

    Certainly, if it were possible for traders to inject false price data into MT4 data streams, such that brokers would give fills on that data, then it would be a major security hole in the MT4 client/server trader system. I would think the makers of MT4 would have a vested interest in either...

    More Brokers Slapped by the CFTC. Their Crime? Daring to Accept US Traders.

    The proper role of government as to forex is simply to protect against fraud. That's it. It's not to protect traders from themselves. If someone is made aware of terms and those terms are abided by then government should stay away.

    Anybody a successful scalper?

    I'd disagree on the reason it can be dangerous. I'd say it's not because the losing track of so many small trades that's the problem, but the spreads & commissions. Long term traders don't really care about spreads and commissions since in setting up a trade with 200-400 pip goals and/or stop...

    Anybody a successful scalper?

    No, I got the desktop account. I'd like to get the MT4 account but they got some policy change that doesn't allow account openings from my country (Ecuador) and that might prevent me from changing over to an MT4 account. I guess I should be glad they didn't summarily close the account, but I'm...

    Newbies out there are actually very lucky

    When I first started trading with serious money, I raised my balance 15% in under 2 weeks. I was on cloud nine. Then I lost all that and a bit more. I sometimes wonder if I had something I lost, that I might be able to get back.
