Hi, I have some questions about Forex. I saw that there are many forex robot, software for trading in forex in autopilot.
1. Do they work? If yes, which is (or which are) the best(s) in the world?
2. can they cause a money loss?
3. I'd want to begin to trade. If I use one of these robots can I reduce the risk?

Thank you.

Yes. Of course they work. you just put your money in and off goes the robot , wheeling and dealing, until you have so much money you won't know what to do with it.
Now what do you think, seriously?

Do the Forex robots works? Which is the best robot?

BoE minutes and FOMC press conference the focus

O/N BULLETS

• Greek confidence vote passes
• IMF says Spanish risks still considerable

USD

the USD remains unloved as long as the soft patch in the US economy emphasises that there is a long way to go before the US will consider tighter policy. the USD has managed some gains in the last month as yields have fallen more elsewhere than they have in the US, but this suggests that any risk recovery will also prove USD negative, since at this stage there is more scope for yields to recover elsewhere. It seems unlikely that Bernanke will do anything other than stress the long road ahead at the FOMC press conference today, so it is hard to see a trigger for further USD gains other than negative news on growth or risk from elsewhere.

EUR

The Greek confidence vote passed as expected, and the EUR has managed to make modest gains, but the focus now passes to the budget passage and implementation, which is more contentious. But perhaps more of a concern for the EUR is the lack of any Real progress in designing a new debt solution for Greece, and the fear is increasing that this may drag out well beyond the new deadline of early July. This could be damaging for the EUR, but for today it seems the focus will be more on the US FOMC and EUR/USD may extend yesterday’s gains.

GBP

Today’s MPC minutes seem certain to be more dovish than the last set after dovish comments from King and Fisher of late, but this should by now be in the Market with the first UK rate hike now priced in for next may (!). Nevertheless, the shape of the minutes will be interesting with Broadbent’s first vote and the exit of Sentance changing the balance, but it seems likely that Weale and Dale will vote for a rate hike, and Posen for more QE, with the others looking for no change. This makes next may if anything still look on the late side for a hike, but sterling impact seems likely to be modest if this voting pattern emerges.

Equities Equities have had a long but relatively shallow move down over the last 7 weeks, but look ripe for a recovery after the positive Greek confidence vote. while this may not last if the EU fails to sort out the next Greek bailout package, there is scope for a relief rally from here. We would argue that European markets look particularly good value, suggesting scope for gains in European risk positive currencies, with the SEK the most obvious.

Spotlight – NOK weakness looks overdone – the NOK has suffered against the EUR in the last week or so in spite of, or perhaps because of, the nerves surrounding Greece. the General decline in risk appetite that has resulted from this, and from the soft patch in global economic data, has led to a general unwinding of positions, which has affected all higher yielding currencies. the NOK has also been affected by a weakening in the oil price. But Norway’s big current account and budget surpluses make it an obvious safe haven too, as long as the oil price is not in sharp decline. Expect the NOK to make gains across the board if risk appetite starts to recover, while downside now looks limited as long as the oil price holds above the may lows

I have been talking with a professional forex trader and he says he has been trading for 25 years and he can manage an account for me that earns between 1-3% a day for around 20% a month. can experienced traders really make this much on large accounts?

absolutely. in reality about 2% actually do this tho. I suggest you demand to see some prior trading account statemnets from this fellow before giving him money. if he's for real he will gladly produce proof and references.

Yes it is possible. I wouldn't count on it every month but a forex trader that knows what he or she is doing can generate that kind of return. keep in mind that a managed account will usually cost you around 30% of the profits still giving you a net of about 13%.

Also be aware that although a professional will charge you 30% of the profits they will not share the risk of any losses to your account that they nay cause.

No.

At that rate he would be a billionaire after 25 years.

One of my friend can earn 600% two weeks so it may quiet easy to earn 20% a month .But it has under the risk,so you should learn or practice before you trade.

It is possible to make even 100% in this market, but it is consistency that matters. An informed and wise trader will not claim what he can make in the future for past performances are are no guarantee for future returns. the wise in this field are those who know when to trade, when not to trade, and when to stop and take profits.

The Forex market is the most volatile market in the world. If market psychology changes, you can see 300-400 points swing in minutes. last week, the Yen appreciated by 936 points against the pound. in Feb, a similar activity led to pound falling against yen for about 2000 points.

Consistency is the key!

Yes, it is defiantly possible to earn 20% or more a month. of course, you can lose just as much. From what I know a good trader can usually win 70% of their trades, and the percentage a month depends on their trading style, and how much leverage they are using. some signal sites like http://www.easyforexsignals.info or http://myforexsignals.info claim they make 20% or more each month.

Is it possible for a professional Forex trader to earn 20% a month?

i wanted to get into forex trading or maybe buy some shares but during this credit crisis i have heard a lot of investors have lost money but i also believe that people are still making money i just need some help if any 1 has any tutorials for this for every single detail eg what the symbols mean, unrealized/realized profit etc

In Forex or any trading there will be some risk. Compare to other trading Forex trading is safe now.

The markets seem to have stabilised at the moment but the most important word is "seem".

There are never any guarantees when trading and at the moment any bit of news can send the markets crashing or even booming. I think the markets have risen a bit too fast in the last few weeks with no real economic data to back up the rises and I would say we're due for a big "correction" (as the insiders say – it really means a crash).

This is a good time to make money on the markets but also a time to lose a lot of money quickly. Long term investments should be safe (let's say 5 years plus), but investing short term is extremely risky.

Forex trading is safe if you know what you're doing. Driving an automobile is also safe if you know how to stear, where the brake is located, how much gas to apply, etc. etc. Not knowing these things will result in a crash

FOREX Trading is safe only if you know how to trade there..
The best investment is to invest in FX Funds Group if you would like to make 2% – 15% per month.

search for FX Funds Group or myfxfunds in google search engine for more information.

like what everyone else says, forex trading is safe, however, it is a lot riskier than trading stocks. anyway, for your tutorial needs, you may download a free ebook and a free demo account as well from this source. you need to do lots of reading and practice if you haven't done yet. if you want personal mentoring, you may open a mini account and they will provide you a personal account service manager to walk you through the basics and even trade with you on your first trading activities. all the best.

With the collapse of the stock markets last year, people have lost upto 70% of their retirement portfolios. Most of the people are afraid to invest in stocks and rightly so. Stock markets will be volatile for a few more years. Forex has emerged as the Recession Proof Business of the 21st century. if you can learn forex trading trust me you can make a lot of money. I have given you a risk free method of learning forex trading. it is being touted that forex trading is going to make many millionaires in the coming decade.

Is forex trading safe at the moment?

while the EUR/GBP found itself gaining downside momentum following commentary by the European Central Bank that interest rates are likely to remain low for the time being on muted inflation concerns, the ascending channel for the pair has been marked by pivots forming on significant event risk.

While the EUR/GBP found itself gaining downside momentum following commentary by the European Central Bank that interest rates are likely to remain low for the time being on muted inflation concerns, the ascending channel for the pair has been marked by pivots forming on significant event risk. as such, any news, over the past few weeks, has generally propelled the pair in favor of the Pound, while little or no news has helped the Euro. With the docket mostly empty until Tuesday, the EUR/GBP is poised to gain, while market-moving data later in the week could result in further losses by the EUR/GBP.

Levels to Watch:

-Range Top: 1.6063 (Trend, 76.4 Fib)

-Range Bottom: 1.5890 (Trend)

Charts created using Strategy Trader– Prepared by Christopher Vecchio

Suggested Strategy

• Long: Place an entry at 0.84528 (200-SMA)
• Stop: Set the stop to 0.84043 (23.6 Fib, 50 pip risk)
• Target: The first target is 0.85328 (50.0 Fib)

Trading Tip – The EUR/GBP pair has fallen steadily since the end of January, though the drop has been fueled mainly by dovish commentary by ECB President Trichet and a declining overall outlook for the health of the British economy. The precipitous drop has sent the pair below the 50-SMA, 100-SMA, and 200-SMA, though the EUR/GBP has retraced some of its losses today, finding the significant 200-SMA difficult to break below. accordingly, on both 4-hour and 6-hour charts, oversold conditions have been met and stochastic indicators point towards a rally in the near-term.

Event Risk for the Euro-zone and Great Britain

Euro-zone – With little significant data coming across the newswires for Europe over the next few days, there is no major risk of news that would trigger a major reversal to the lower part of the channel. as such, no data may be good data for Europe. yet traders should keep an eye for any news regarding the EFSF as significant bond auctions will be held the week after.

Great Britain – Looking ahead, the Pound could sustain some losses and reverse course against the Euro as data released on Tuesday will likely show another steep contraction in Britain’s housing market. furthermore, a widening trade deficit could weigh on the Pound. however, the event posing the most risk will be the key rate decision on Thursday. Commentary signaling future rate hikes – the implied March 2011 interest rate is now 0.920 percent (versus actual 0.50 percent) – would accelerate further losses for the EUR/GBP and result in another test of the ascending channel.
