The PRIMEVAL-EA Forex Trading Package is pretty expensive at USD500 but from some of the reviews online, the results have been pretty impressive.

See a live statement here

The PRIMEVAL-EA Forex Trading Package is a fully automated Forex robot that needs no human intervention. You just need to place it on a chart and it trades by itself. It works with all Forex brokers using the MetaTrader platform, including ECN and 5-digit brokers, it detects yPrimeval EA broker’s digits automatically before it places a single trade.

The PRIMEVAL-EA Forex Trading Package has been sharply designed to operate on EIGHT currency pairs with SIX Built In Very Advanced & Profitable Strategies. FPrimeval EA of them are for Scalping Asian Sessions when the Market is more quiet and the price tends to be more predictable allowing the Expert Advisor to pick up some reliable pips from it.

The fifth strategy is a technique called Grid Trading Strategy, which consists in dividing the total range of the historical data of a specific currency pair into sub ranges (grids). Every time a grid line is touched, the Expert Advisor would open a trade if there isn’t any trade opened yet for that specific grid, this works great on ranging markets and for stable currency pairs with low historical range of pips.

The last strategy included in this single EA is called Hedging & Pyramiding . Pyramiding is a trading strategy that consists in adding positions as price moves in the desired trend direction, this offers the maximum potential reward but can also be risky, that’s why it also hedges (open trades in the same currency pair with opposite directions buy & sell) positions until partial trades or all trades are closed in profit.

Unlike other Expert Advisors that use big lot sizes on every trade (this can get you very good profits in short time but can also kill yPrimeval EA account easily), Primeval-EA Expert Advisor is designed to earn many pips daily (even when it’s scalping) with several trades on the eight (8) supported currency pairs which use small & safe lot sizes in every trade. Trades are opened and closed properly by the diverse built-in algorithms that handle the trades in different ways thus minimizing the possibility of suffering big drowdowns. For a $10,000 deposit and with conservative settings (by default) it opens 10 to 30 trades a day with lot sizes of 0.1 to 0.5 and is capable of earning about 30 to 120 pips a day (about 100$ to 400$) on average!!

NFA Compatible! If yPrimeval EA broker is NFA Regulated you will be able to use The Scalping Strategy without any inconvenient, Primeval EA Expert Advisor has a setting NFA_Compliant that can be set to TRUE to assure that no hedging is used and that only one trade at a time is opened for a specific currency pair to avoid FIFO problems when trying to close orders due to this specific rule.
However, both Hedging & Pyramiding Strategy and the Grid Trading Strategy cannot be used if yPrimeval EA broker is NFA Regulated.

FxSpyder is a website that lets you use their forex robots if you sign up with brokers using their IB code. Sounds like a good deal since they’ve just email me stating their best robot has earned + 283.00 % this month ! (PivotPointTrader). However their email did not state what pairs the robots were working on and there is not live statement to show us the proof. Did any of you gain that much from their robots?

Here’s the email I got from them

If you have been using FxSpyder’s free forex robots over the last 30 days you will have
experienced the following gains for every $300 traded:

30 Day Results*
PivotPointTrader + 283.00 %
BollingerBandit + 61.09 %
RangeBreakout + 66.67 %
TrendContinuation + 87.00 %
SnakeCharmer + 32.71 %
Reversal + 28.78 %

Results are based on the following stats per robot:
Account Type: FxSpyder-FXCM
Account Size: $300
Trade Size: 1 mini lot (10,000 units)
Margin: 200:1

I’ve been trying out a few services that lets you publish Metatrader 4 results on webpages. So far I’ve run through mt4stats.com , mt4live.com and now mt4i.com is the latest one on my list. Mt4i.com is pretty cool as it allows me to export my forex results onto an excel file by just a click on the webpage. Pretty nifty as mt4live.com did not have this function. Mt4i.com can also pin protect your results so that only certain people can see it.

Here’s their newest update that I received today. (see below) …and do try out mt4i in the mean time!

Firstly, we would like to apologise for the MT Intelligence service outage either side of midnight GMT on Thursday February 18th. This was caused by a very strange bug in the Microsoft .NET Framework, in conjunction with several other improbable factors. See below for a full post-mortem on the incident. This was the first ever outage of the MTI Live service itself, as opposed to a problem with the entire datacentre in which the system is hosted.

Moving on to better news, we are pleased to announce that we have made further enhancements to the MTI Live service:

* Portfolios: combine multiple accounts into a single set of results which then behave like a normal account.
* Filtered charts: view the results for a particular symbol, direction etc without needing to filter your results.
* Extra charts: now more than 60 to choose from.
* Worked round the iPhone bug where Safari was not displaying a scrollbar on long pages such as statements.

There is also some other news which we would like to report:

* Importing strategy test results into MTI Live
* Coming soon: tools for developers
* Server monitoring
* Unbeatably low latency to Alpari UK

We have also changed the way total-return percentages are calculated on accounts with multiple deposits. Please contact us if you are interested in the tedious detail.

Portfolio functionality

For an example of the new portfolio functionality, see this link: http://www.mt4i.com/users/exampleportfolio

Portfolios are simply a combination of multiple MTI Live accounts. A portfolio behaves exactly like a single account: you can view a combined statement of all the orders; you can download the combined order list into Excel; you can get statistics and charts for the aggregated performance; and you can publish the usual range of banners, scripts, RSS feeds etc.

You can create portfolios containing any accounts on the MTI Live service, not just your own. The steps for creating a portfolio are as follows:

* Log in to an MTI Live account. (If you have multiple accounts, it is best to choose one of them to create all your portfolios from.)
* Go to the results for the first account you want to add to the portfolio (e.g. http://www.mt4i.com/users/sirxl/stats), and click on the Portfolio button in the page banner.
* Fill in the form for creating a new portfolio.
* Go to the results for the next account you want to add to the portfolio, and click on the Portfolio button.
* Add the account to the existing portfolio.

When viewing a portfolio, the list of available charts includes extra entries (at the top of the list) for showing the individual performance of each constituent in the portfolio.

Filtered charts

Filtered charts let you graph a subset of your results – e.g. performance on a single symbol – without having to use the Filter button.

An example of an filtered chart goes as follows:

* Go to the Symbols tab of the Stats.
* Highlight any symbol in the grid (or more than one, using Ctrl+click or Shift+click).
* Click on the “Filtered chart” button in the grid’s toolbar.
* Choose the chart you want to draw.
* The chart will then only include orders for the symbol(s) which you have selected.

You can use the same technique on the other tabs, e.g. to draw charts which only include orders in a particular direction (buy/sell), or only orders opened between particular hours of day, or only orders with a particular magic number etc.

Extra charts

In addition to the portfolio constituents and the filtered charts, we have also added new options to the list of charts. (And the list has now been divided up into categories, making it easier to use.)

The new options include the following:

* Charts showing separate lines for the cumulative profit on each separate symbol, trade direction, and combination of symbol plus direction.
* Charts showing separate lines for the profit each day (i.e. variance, non-cumulative) on each separate symbol, trade direction, and combination of symbol plus direction.
* Charts showing separate lines for the cumulative number of pips banked on each separate symbol, trade direction, and combination of symbol plus direction.
* Charts showing separate lines for the number of pips banked for each symbol at each order close (i.e. an order-based chart, not a time-based one).

There are now more than 60 charts to choose from – plus, of course, the ability to generate an almost infinite number of charts of your own devising using the “Bespoke chart” button at the top of each data grid.

Importing strategy tests into MTI Live

We mentioned in a previous email that we have a tool for importing MT4 strategy test results into an MTI Live account (see http://www.mt4i.com/users/backtestexample).

In combination with the portfolio functionality, this means that you can not only use the power of MTI Live to analyse your backtesting, but you can also combine multiple strategy tests and analyse their collective performance. Up until now this kind of functionality has been limited to the institutional users of our MTI Desktop software.

We are now in a position to release this tool for MTI Live. However, we will almost certainly make a charge for this service. Please contact us if interested.

Coming soon

We will shortly be releasing some tools for MT4 developers: the ability to send SMS from indicators and EAs, plus a library which provides much more versatile email handling than MT4’s built-in SendMail() command – HTML emails, attachments, support for Gmail etc.

Server monitoring

We already provide a sophisticated monitoring tool which checks the health of MT4, issuing email and/or SMS alerts if a broker connection is lost, or a VPS goes down entirely, or if free margin reaches dangerous levels etc.

We could potentially provide a simpler version of this service based on MTI Live: i.e. alerts if no new statement is published from your copy of MT4 within a certain number of minutes. This would detect both the loss of an account connection and also complete failure or inaccesibility of a VPS. We are prepared to build this and make it available at a small monthly charge if a sufficient number of users are interested. Please contact us if you would be interested in such a service.

Unbeatably low latency to Alpari UK

Through a quirk of fate, the backup servers for MTI Live are actually more powerful than our live servers. These backup servers are colocated with an ISP who have provided us with fabulous service for more than 3 years.

We don’t currently use this ISP for any activity related to forex trading. But we had a “doh!” moment recently when we realised that they have unbeatably low latency to Alpari UK. If you are an Alpari customer, and you are trading a strategy where latency is a major factor, you should strongly consider using a VPS (or dedicated server) from this ISP. They’re not cheap, but that’s because they’re very good. For further details, please contact us.

Service outage post-mortem

Finally, a post-mortem on the service outage earlier this week. This was caused by a bizarre bug in the Microsoft .NET Framework, in conjunction with a small number of users publishing results – very frequently – from an EA which uses Unicode characters in its order comments, and by the users opting to include these order comments on their statement. This caused processor usage to hit 100% for extended periods, and the web service repeatedly shut itself down. We considered moving to our backup servers, but realised very quickly that this wasn’t going to help. Rather ironically, the problem turned out to be in a block of code whose only purpose is a trivial reduction in bandwidth usage of about 0.2%. This issue is now fully resolved, and we have also modified the service so that the impact of any similar incidents in future would be much less severe. Many apologies for the inconvenience.

We’ve got 2 Free Audials Licences winners. Sorry for the late results as its Chinese New Year and things are pretty busy now. Congrats to Scott and Jenny. I will send the licences to your mailbox in the next few hours.

Just got my hands on the new Forex Robot World Cup Royal Trader package that costs USD999. They just launched on the 16th Feb 2010.

There’s 11 forex EAs in there and I’ve just installed HiRider on my VPS as I’m not too confident in the other EAs. It did not run any trades last night but you can see some results from another person’s account at http://www.mt4pips.com/fxopen65/statement. Pretty good results I would say.

In the package you can even find an EA made by a Malaysian (Roslie Saini Bakar) called AkuKaya EA which is simple in fact as there are not many settings on it. see above pic.

I can’t wait to see HiRider in action next week….I will post some results once I get them….

Goto Forex Robot World Cup Website to buy the FRWC Royal Trader

Its official. The Forex Robot World Cup Royal Trader has been LAUNCHED !!

Goto Forex Robot World Cup Website

–> #1 Ranked Forex Robot World Cup (FRWC) Robot At 156.91% Profjt In Just 11 Days!

–> Soon, The Top Competing EAs Of The FRWC Will Be Available For Purchase

Many of my subscribers have been steadily following the Forex Robot World Cup (FRWC)…

Just a small re-cap for those that haven’t:

The FRWC was created with the objective of finding the best NON-COMMERCIAL Forex robot in the world through a competition based on solid and transparent rules.

What does non-commercial mean? Simple, robots that are not being sold or marketed anywhere but are solely used by their developers.

Hundreds of independent robot developers from all over the globe joined the FRWC to compete for the #1 Prize… US $100,000 (which is why the FRWC got the BEST of the BEST robot developers to participate)!

Now… the competition has two phases, the qualification phase and the live (real money) trading phase.

As of December 1st, 2009 the live trading phase started with 24 robots out of the 329 submitted during the qualification phase (which lasted over 2 months!)….Yes… ONLY 24 robots!

Why so few? Simple – the FRWC’s qualification rules are TOUGH! They have the sole objective of truly having the best of the best compete… robots that have the potential of not just having good results for a short period of time……but robots that can be consistently profitable over time.

You can view the live (real money) results of the 24 competing FRWC robots (updates every 15 minutes) here: …and, by the way, you will also be able to view each robot’s real money live account statement so you can see each and every trade it takes as the competition progresses, right through to the end on Friday, January 29th, 2010.

It is truly exciting to finally see an event designed to separate truth from hype…

…let me explain.

Once the live phase of the FRWC is over this coming Friday, the winning robots will be available for purchase (in very small quantities).

This means one simple thing: THE END OF B.S. ROBOTS IN THE MARKET!

Once and for all, FX traders will be able to put their hands on real, PROVEN money making FX robots.

No marketing hype… no cheap sales pitches… just the natural outcome of the most important automatic FX trading competition, which YOU can follow live AND verify on a daily basis:

Goto Forex Robot World Cup Website

By the way… after almost 2 months of live, real money trading, the leading robot is at 156.91% profjt!

I don’t know about you, but I have been (and will be) following this thing on a daily basis until the end :-)

Want to win a free Forex Robot World Cup (FRWC) Royal Trader Package ??

Then head on down to the Forex Robot World Cup Website

– On the blog, just write why you deserve a free copy of the FRWC’s Royal Trader.

Here is what they say :

The blog will be public for everyone to read and get involved in and, once we stop receiving visitor comments, we will select 3 winners. The winners will be selected as the ones with the best reason for why they should own the FRWC’s Royal Trader. Each winner will get a free FRWC Royal Trader Package. The winners will be announced on Monday – February 15th, 2010 at our live webinar

I personally have 2 FXCM live accounts and since FXCM was one of the main sponsors for the Forex Robot World Cup (FRWC), they’ve added a special interview video on the site. Check it out….And make sure you come back often as the robots will be on sale on Feb 16, 2010.

Goto Forex Robot World Cup Website

As you probably now know, FXCM is not just the biggest Forex broker in the world, but also one of our official competition sponsors and the broker all competing robots trade with on live, real money accounts.

Now, we are not only proud of the fact that the biggest FX broker in the world is our official sponsor, but also the fact that FXCM has agreed to provide us with a true exclusive.

For the first time ever, your subscribers will be able to hear what FXCM has to say about the FRWC and also about many areas regarding the Forex trading industry.

This is not only an opportunity for your leads to listen to the biggest authority in the field, but also (and mainly) for you (as an affiliate of the product) to raise credibility and level of trust with your leads.
