I've been testing this on my live MBT account and can assure you I'm not getting the same results as the on the FPA demo. I have many more losers and over the past couple of weeks its losing a small amount rather than making the gains shown on the demo account. Something very strange going on...

I appreciate this will come as after timing but I've only just looked at this thread and successfully bought the USD/CAD after the announcement. I think the market was certainly expecting a positive figure of some sort so I think your -15K as your buy signal was a little harsh. The -9K figure...

You posted that at least 8 hours before the announcement. Are you clairvoyant ?

As others have already said, if any of these systems really made money long run, d'you think the developers would be selling them ? The simple answer is not to buy any of these systems ever. He was certainly scammed but its a case of caveat emptor and the guy should move on and learn from...

I've moved my account to MB Trading on the recommendation of Felix and must say many of the problems I experienced with MT4 brokers have gone. You have to pay them a commission but you're able to properly place your trades wherever you want in the market. I use the Ninja Trader interface to do...

Thanks Clyclon. I switched Don's EAs off. True, all the completed trades were profitable but only because the ones that weren't were left as drawdowns, so the drawdowns were slowly but surely building up to be a huge percentage of my account. Almost anyone can create a system that only trades...

Don't mean to be rude Strategist but I've noticed that your market predictions are really, really bad. Hopefully you've found a way round your terrible technical analysis. Perhaps you should trade the news :)

The beauty of our markets is that it doesn't really matter what the economy is doing as long as there is volatlity. In fact I'd say recession is good because it brings more volatility and any moves are exagerated. So bring it on........

Made 20 pips on that move using my newly opened account with MB Trading after having been advised to use them by Felix. Still trying to find a decent one-click interface for the platform as the Quote Trader doesn't appear to be working as promised. I'm looking for something like Button Trader...

Going well for me but then I don't trade spikes and never have done. Depends when to try to get into the market. My tactic is to allow the frenetic activity to happen and then to make my decision. Quite often the market spikes in the wrong medium-term direction anyway just to knock off stops and...

I've previously been using the ForexFactory Calendar because for some reason I had it bookmarked. However, with all your recent improvements I've moved over to yours. The additional functions available from the icons on the right are really fantastic, so a huge well done from me. It has a...

Thanks for the advice Pharoah. Useful stuff. I generally only use PayPal cos I've been working with them for a number of years and it works for me.

Well, the more I look at this particular EA, the more I can understand his claim that it has 100% success. This is because the trades that do not reach the profit requirement to trade out of are simply left open until they do, not matter what the drawdown becomes. I think this type of system...

I'd appreciate any opinions regarding this EA I've come across. His site makes some startling claims but for some reason Don doesn't appear to post 'live' statements, only from 'demo' accounts. This doesn't bode well. Generally I'm happy trading news in my own way but I'm always willing to...

For those who are interested in trading the news get yourself Newstrader Pro. Its a great piece of kit and you'll be able to judge which news events are the best to trade. The one thing that's missing from the software is the ability to see what was happening before the news event but I'm...
