Forex AutoCash Robot Product Report

Forex Auto Cash Review

Forex AutoCash Robot is a relatively new, yet increasingly popular trading robot that claims to have had 0 losses with 597 Consecutive Profitable since January 3rd 2000. Thus aserting to own the highest win/loss record in the industry.

The primary benefits are an automated Forex trading system that can trade the markets un-aided by human intervention. And it can be tested on a demo account without risking acual money on a live account

How it is used is as a "set and forget" system that trades personal accounts using the MetaTrader 4 price data platform. The system is set up to allow the market to trade by using a huge stoploss (650 pips) or no stoploss at all.  

If you check the salespage you will see one trade opened on April 23rd 2008 and did not close until July 11th 2008 (an open trade for close to 3 months). This trade did win when it was closed out for a gain of of 7 pips. However during that time that open trade had a drawdown of over 700 pips assuming that the EUR/USD was being traded, which is what this system was optimized for. That is a huge risk to reward ratio that even the most funded trader would probaly find unacceptable.

:: FEEDBACK & OVERVIEW

Overall Rating:

Forex AutoCash Robot Recieved 0 Stars

Avoid this product - This is a very dangerous trading robot, especially if it is used without testing on a live trading account with a small equity amount. The huge 650 pip stoploss could wipe out just about any normal trading account in very short order...

 

Actual Customer Feedback On Forex AutoCash Robot:

"I decided to shell out $97 and slapt this EA on a demo account. So far it has opened one trade since I initialized it. It opened a buy position on the EUR/USD @ 1.4091. So far the position is floating at -189 pips as of this moment."

"...trades EUR/USD only, takes buy trades arbitrarily for 6 pips, stop loss 650 pips, so far 1 trade for 2 days and losing over 200 pips."
Portion of actual user review on Jamroe, Australia

"It finally opened some trades. First one with a lost of 200. Second one with a profit of 150. Then the third with another lost of 70.
Right at this moment, while I am writing this, there's a floating trade with a negative of 49...so far!
Another point I should say, none of my email were answered!
So, let's see if it will make all the winning trades starting from this point on for...8 years :-), without a single...loss! :-)"

Portion of actual user review on Forexpeacearmy.com forum

"I am still in my first one which at the moment is down 80 pips.

The entry was horrible-right at news volatility when EU had been ranging for hours before. Since it's only seeking 6-7 pips, I don't know why it didn't enter during that range as opposed to extreme volatility right at the news.

In backtesting, there ARE losses; I don't care what the website says or shows. They claim bad backtest results are from bad data in MT4. Wrong. I verified by going all the way back to the date of entry on a losing trade on a 5 minute chart on 2 different brokers and confirmed, yes, it was an actual loss (for 650 pips no less). As another reviewer said, the one loss wipes out all the previous profits.

In addition, I too have yet to get any answers to repeated emails.

If your broker uses 5 decimal pricing, this thing doesn't work at all. It takes profits at 0.6 pips rather than 6 pips, and there's no way to change it.

I also was very turned off by the cheap salesman feel to their whole website. When reading it I felt like I was getting a pitch at a used car lot. Definitely targeted to forex newbies."

Portion of actual user review by Bob from USA

"In backtesing of the recommended settings, it does have losing trades, and because the stop loss is set at 650 pips (YES!!!!), when it does lose, it wipes out all of the other gains. This EA will wipe you out. DO NOT BUY IT.

Who risks 650 pips to gain 7? Does the author think we're mad? I'm just disappointed in my own gullibility.

(Plus, so far I've had no reply to my one email)"

Our Research on Forex AutoCash Robot Suggests:

According to the general online consensus (where research is based on unbiased, non-vested comments & articles), this product simply does not live up to its claims.

In spite of the owners claims the system has continually received losses as it is set run out of the box. The discrepency between the marketing claims and the real life trading is in the use of the stop loss. 

The product arrives with a preset stoploss of 650 pips, which by most traders standards is an insanely huge stoploss risk. However the backtesting that is listed on the product's site was traded without any stoploss at all. And of course it goes without saying that ANY system can be profitable if it is willing to wait through any amount of draw down (no matter how large) until the price rebounds to a profit. However the obvious corralary to this is that in order to withstand any amount of drawdown you must have a rather large equity account (like practically limitless). 

Verdict: Avoid this product - This is a very dangerous product especially if it is used without testing on a live trading account with a small amount of equity. The huge 650 pip stoploss could wipe out just about any trading account in very short order. And backtesting showed that the trade wins on the sales page were by trading without a stoploss at all (for a small 6-7 pip gain), which is a sure way to get a margin call from your brokerage.

Product Specifications:

Software: Forex AutoCash Robot™ software is tradable using any standard Meta trader data feed. According to user feedback the software does install easily, but  does frequently crash. There has been some feedback that having the latest version of MetaTrader 4 makes it more stable but users still have crashes.

The system trades on market reversals using technical indicators that the author has not revealed to the public as of yet. But it is essentiall a scalping system, looking for small (6 pip average) gains. Once the gain is achieved the position is closed. It gets its profits by allowing the market to swing as long and as far as it pleases until the profit target is reached. 

In the marketing copy the product results were gained using no stoploss at all, which is why it could sustain huge market drawdowns in historical back-testing. The "as shipped" software comes with a preset 650 pip stop loss, which depending on position size could be rather extensive.

It was found that during backtesing with the "out of the box" settings (ie. the 650 pip stoploss) that the system does indeed have losing trades. This was noted as a discrepency between the system as tested for marketing purposes and that which was delivered to customers.
