Forex Software

MB Trading Adds COMEX Symbols


Traders who use the award-winning MBT Navigator online trading platform by MB Trading (MBT) will be thrilled to know that the financial services company has added COMEX symbols to its trading platform. COMEX symbols are primarily used in the trading of metals and include full-size Gold, Silver, Copper and Aluminium and MiNY Gold, Silver, and copper. Traders interested in seeing the full list of symbols, contracts, and margin requirements are invited to go to the MB Trading website.

MB Trading believes that by adding the COMEX symbols, traders will be able to see just how flexible the MBT Navigator and its routing system actually is.
States Ross Ditlove, the CEO of MB Trading, “We can combine the breadth of our execution algorithms and trading platform with our relationships with key exchanges to expand our offerings and provide traders around the globe with access to an ever-expanding variety of symbols. As the world’s trading markets become more and more interconnected, we’re poised to provide any solution that traders need in one reliable package.”

Forex Robots


If you are looking for a way to start making money at Forex trading rather quickly, you may want to consider investing in a Forex robot, especially one that works with and integrates seamlessly with Metatrader4. These robots are not R2-D2 and C-3PO, but small pieces of software that can be added to your Forex trading program, configured to your needs and set on autopilot. They will work on your Forex trades for you so that you do not need to be tethered to the computer twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week making trade after trade after trade.

There is some question as to how profitable Forex robots really are. So far their numbers look great on paper and they seem to have an impressive performance record already. But as with everything else, there is no fool proof plan to making money and each of these robots works differently than the other. You should always research each of the robots that are available on the market in order to understand whether or not other users have found them to perform adequately. Much of the data that is provided about these little program snippets may or may not be accurate because you have no way of knowing whether or not the program has actually back-tested.

You may hear that these Forex robots are a scam, but there are reputable ones that have been put through their paces and have traded money for their owners successfully. The ones that have been back-tested over the last few years are operating as efficiently today as they were when they first hit the Forex scene. You will not know how well it will work for you, though, unless you buy it and test it out. Always verify that there is a refund policy with the robot in the event that you have to return for failure to work. If there is a demo account available, take it for a Forex trading drive and see how it works. If it is one you wish to keep, you usually only have to purchase an unlock style key code to open up the whole program.

Forex robots are not going to produce large and outrageous amount of money for you or even do it in one quick shot. Instead, the ones that seem to work the best are the ones that steadily increase your money over the long run, producing profits that are both slow and steady. Try to purchase one that has a track record for making more winning calls than losses and includes a stop loss strategy. These are usually the best for ensuring that you will have long-term profits while the system is in place. They will also give you the automatic trade option, allowing you to hang out at the pool while your money increases.
