Both LOVED the idea of producing a “never seen before” Forex robot. I suppose it fits our personality – do something traders, banks, fund managers etc. label as “impossible”!
And So The Biggest Forex Project Of This Century Started – The Wheels Were In Motion – “FAP Turbo” Was About To Be Born...
We got a hold of every single Forex robot in the market...every single Forex strategy and method available... every idea or piece of idea we could find...we read over 20 “strategy design” books between the 3 of us and subscribed to every single Forex publication/service available.
Thats how serious we took project “FAP Turbo”...
You guessed right....99% of what we saw, tested and studied was CRAP! Well, obviously...if it wasn't, I suppose others would have already come up with a super-Forex robot right?
But...and this is a lesson I learned quite well from this project...even in “crap” information there is value...you can actually understand why it is crap and come up with ideas to improve it!
But you know what was the most frustrating part?
Even The “Good” Forex Robots We Tested Worked Well ONLY In Backtests! Once We Live Traded Them We Actually Lost Our Pants...
Yes...we lost a lot of money in the process of testing...but that was the only way to actually know what works and what doesn't.
It was the only way to understand why so many Forex robots were failing to deliver the goods in real LIVE trading.
Do you know that stage where you are ready to give up? Where everything seems a waste of time...nothing seems to work....you can't really see the “light at the end of the tunnel”?
Well...I must admit...we were quite close to it! But our work paid off once we stumbled into Marcus B Leary and his Forex AutoPilot Robot (forexautopilot.com)...
I LOVE that feeling of relief....that deep breath that comes with “FINALLY!”....finally something that seems to work and make sense!
Forexautopilot is an EA that is consistently being updated by it's creator Marcus B. Leary who himself is the pioneer of expert advisor programming.
We were quite impressed by his work as this robot seriously was able to rake in very nice gains - consistently.
However...
The trading risk is to big, especially for larger sums. The all or nothing formula is nothing for weak stomachs.
I called up their support and introduced myself and what I was doing with Mike and Ulrich...after a little back and forth with the support staff I was able to FINALLY speak with the man himself.
We hit is off quite well! I wouldn't say Marcus is the average “Geek” profile...but you can definitely confuse him with that!
He is the type of person that will talk with inspiration and A LOT of knowledge. If you talk to Marcus, you have to know what you are talking about! If not, he will get quite bored quite soon...
Anyway, we ended up talking for over 3 weeks...exchanging ideas...building a solid relationship.
All through our conversations I kept insisting that Mike, Ulrich and Me can actually take his Forex robot and make it 10 times better (a bit bold, I know!).
It is safe to say that if it was another person I was talking to I would have been blown off...but not with Marcus! huge income hurry avial now
