Can an Automated Forex Trading Robot Make You Money?

By Taipan Trader

Advancing computer software technology has lead to a lot of interest in automatic forex system trading robots. After all, what could be better than to place a relatively small amount of money in a forex brokerage account, say $1000 to $5000 dollars, and see your account balance double every month or two while you are busy enjoying life? Is such a happy result possible or is it just another Internet dream?

It is important to know that the forex market itself is very genuine. The forex market is the largest financial market in the world and involves the world’s major banks, brokerage firms, and trading houses. The forex market is open 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. The trading volume in this market is usually 3 to 4 trillion USD a day. There is always the opportunity for a competent trader to take a nice profit from this huge pool of capital. Unfortunately, even with all of the opportunity to prosper probably a good 95% of forex traders fail.

Why is the lousy money losing failure rate among forex traders so high? A few reasons follow:

1) Many traders completely lack discipline. Being unable to keep your emotions under firm control and over trading can result in a series of losses that add up to disaster.

2) Many forex traders tend to use far too much leverage. When you trade at 100 to 1 leverage, which many forex brokerage firms offer, only a 1% adverse market move will completely wipe you out. You would be wise to trade at no more than 10 to 1 leverage or even 5 to 1, but few forex traders are able to control themselves and trade at the maximum (and dangerous) amount of leverage offered. Trading on the edge is great on winning trades but one big loss may end your trading career. The risk is not worth it.

3) Most traders have a poor money management strategy. They enter the markets far too often and not at price levels where they can better control the risk.

4) New forex traders are usually too eager to start trading and yet lack a solid forex education. Many novice traders believe that they can open an account, throw a few thousands dollars at it and easily make a profit. Usually this is not the case. In order to become a successful trader, you need to educate yourself in every aspect of trading, like learning how to read charts, practicing in a demo account, computing the risk of entry, learn to follow major trends, and others.

5) Novice forex traders don’t use the right tools. It is essential to follow a solid trading plan and to use a reliable forex software that can help you to determine the direction of the major market trend and pin point high potential, low risk, entry points.

One huge problem in trading forex markets is that the markets are open continuously from early Sunday evening (in the USA) until late Friday afternoon. No one can stay sharp and focused over anywhere near that long of a time period.

A good automatic robot forex trading system can actually trade better than the majority of traders. For one thing the robot is not influenced by emotions. For another, a good forex robot will only enter the market when there is a good chance of a favorable outcome. Trying to monitor the forex market 24 hours a day is crazy and nearly impossible. By using an automated forex robot trading system and following a sound money management plan most traders will stand a much better chance of trading at a profit. Another big plus…once set up the forex trading robot is a tireless worker who toils away 24 hours a day and yet gives you all of the profits.
