Applied strategies
- It executes a breakout strategy.
- We can work with 18 pairs.

The presentation doesn’t include any sign of backtest reports. It’s a con because any released strategy must have been tested properly to convince us that it’s safe.

The system costs $197. It’s a common price for this type of robot. The rental options cost $30 for a month and $60 for three months.

It helps us top check settings and execute some backtests to find the best parameters to start work with. It allows also to find the best broker on which tick data it will work better.
People feedback
There’s an endless wall of negative testimonials. In fact, the robot doesn’t have a news filter to protect us.
Other notes
The system doesn’t look trustworthy. The main reason is that the developer didn’t increase an account balance to make more profits from trading. It means he doesn’t trust it all the way.
