I don't believe trading is a productive activity for society. For me, trading is a way of escaping the capitalism by joining the capitalism, in its very heart.
My stats on real accounts and demo accounts (mainly automated trading):

What tha f... just happened? 14h15 (GMT+1 time) The USD just jumped against all the other currencies!!! I even had an empty gap in my GPBUSD chart! Is that normal? Is my broker weird? Is it just a newbie question? Or some kind of central bank just bought billions of USD?
I am also trying: - Blessing EA - XMT Scalper (I will give it a shot on ThinkForex due to its slow slippage, might work there, even if it doesn't work in most of the brokers) - HILO Dual (from Magix Community) - Voodoo (Magix Community)
The guys from Magix are really interesting, and I have seen dozens of people with impressive results on MyFxBook with the same robots.
If you want to share your findings with me, I would greatly appreciate.
Well, there is a lot of good people out there too. It took me three entire consecutive days. With so much information on the net, it is difficult to find what is good and what is not. So. I went checking stats on MyFxBook, and opinions on DonnaForex on every one of the EAs I was hearing about. I also did pvt message some people who bought commercial EAs... Unhappily 95% of the EAs out there have a potential of blowing your account at some point. There is probably a stable, profitable and trustworthy system out there, maybe many. But certainly the ones who found or build them, are keeping form themselves, maybe opening their own investment company. Not to talk about the millions of Scams and systems out there made by desperate poor adolescents trying to get some ease, fas, money. But the community is big. We always find some serious person willing to share they knowledge, and sometimes their hard work coding!
And I almost forgot. For people interested about manual trading, the blueball system seems to me like a trustworthy, complete and easy to use (newbie friendly) system. Very well developed, documented and supported: https://www.mql5.com/en/users/blueball/seller
So, this is my first week in trading. And I am hoping to find my path to financial independence. Having chosen for a difficult professional career, I feel obliged to think about money much more than most of people do. Last years having been good to me. I have been able to save some money. But getting 2% a year over my saving feels to me like I am being stolen. So... I decided that I want to try using A.I. to make my money generate the profit it really should. I am not a full time trader, and will never be. This is a stressing and (to me) even depressing activity. And I know I won't be able to get good money if I am not a full time trader. But I do believe in the power of computers, specially associated with some fundamental analysis. Knowing the market a bit, staying tuned in the news, and make a computer execute a perfect technical analysis following your fundamental strategy seems to me like a good way to go. I have to thank some very generous friends in this community, for helping me out with my start!
Hello Pedro, I like your signal 'knux' & subscribed since 2-3 months. I have downloaded the EAs but which 1 are you using & what settings? Please advise. Thanks.
