Forex Trading Robots: the Facts and Fantacies

Trading currency in the forex market via forex brokers has become quite attractive. But why do 90% of Forex traders lose in spite of the sophisticated trading platforms and forex trading software available today?
Traders like other humans suffer from FEAR and GREED. In crucial market conditions, we lack confidence, we have fear of what might happen, and most importantly, we are usually (90% of the time) inconsistent. In times when we have good trades running, 'leave money on the table' hoping that the ride will continue for as long as we wish!. Unfavorable market twists and loss make us jump out of a good trade prematurely. This cycle of inconsistency due to EMOTION explains why, 90% of traders WILL LOSE MONEY IN FOREX. They will consistently give away their money to the other 10%. Similarly PATIENCE to wait for the best forex signals sometimes eludes us. Sitting at the screen, studying the markets, developing forex strategies, identifying trends and patterns for long hours is not a pleasant task.

Artificial intelligence comes to our aid in addressing these problems and thus automated forex trading (Forex trading robots) is becoming increasingly popular among forex traders.Robots are now taking over industrial activities, domestic chores, surgery, and of course forex trading. In forex trading domain, these 'robots' are called expert advisers EAs. Robots beat humans at chess, and they beat humans at trading too. Typically, the EA robot watches the market for you, placing trades under certain parameters (strategies), avoiding the fear, greed,inconsistency, impatience and lack of confidence that many traders suffer from. It is so disciplined with it's trading plan that it sticks to it no matter what, no matter how ugly or uncertain the market looks. It doesn't have to take a break for lunch or even sleep. On autopilot, it works for you 24/7 leaving you to sit-back and watch your portfolio grow.

It is however important to know that both the creators of the EAs and the products must have proven records of performance evidenced by analyzing the performance charts, graphs, statistical records and on historical data. Back-testing reveals the strengths and weaknesses of the robot. Support services is also essential.
It must also be clear that not all trading robots really bring good results. Some actually make the trader lose money because proper money management principles were not built into the robot. It is debatable if these totally eradicate the desire to 'get rich quick' that push traders sometimes towards greed. But at least they check that emotional trading and free up time for us to do other important things.

There are quite a large number of forex trading robots in the market today. However, FAPTurbo robot appears to dominate in popularity among traders perhaps because of the consistency of it's delivery, proper money management, and the excellent support service that comes with the product.
