Dear FX Robot Man & Advanced Droid Tactics Readers:
In this update:
- New ADT v5.0
- August Performance
- ForexVPS
- Forex Bling Bonus
1. New ADT v5.0
As a result of the recent losses that some of you have been experiencing on the Overlap setup I have decided to change the recommended settings. Basically we will only be using Aggressive = FALSE from now on for all charts and all setups in the ADT method.
I have updated the PDF to v5.0 with the new settings, and the corresponding changes to the Risk Tables. Also in the new v5.0 I have expanded the Installation Instructions for the Profile Reset Indicator to include instructions for the Auto Installer, and updated instructions for installing the files by hand.
There is no need to go through the checkout process again for the update. The new version of the PDF is available for download in the Member’s Area of the website. No changes have been made to the Profile Reset Indicator at this time – so there is no need to re-download those files.
2. August Performance
I continue to have connection issues with my demo server, but will be moving to a new ForexVPS account now that they have increased the available memory on their service.
The ADT Overlap and Unified were trading with the old settings and higher risks at the beginning of August so don’t make too much of the performance difference between those two and the ADT Hybrid which came on a bit later with lower risks.
Either way the ADT method shows a substantial advantage over the default MegaDroid settings.
- MegaDroid Default - Loss (-7.2%)
- ADT Overlap Setup - Profit +16.2%
- ADT Unified Setup – Profit +16.9%
- ADT Hybrid Setup – Profit +7.4%
4. ForexVPS.com
I have tried several different VPS services and they all have good and bad features. I know some of you get VPS hosting from your brokers, and there are many VPS options out there. However, I have been reasonably happy with ForexVPS.com and they recently upped the RAM memory for each of their accounts. If you have been considering a VPS host for your forex trading you might have a look at their new specs :

5. Forex Bling Bonus
I am guessing that many of you are being bombarded with emails regarding the new Forex Bling package of EAs that was created by the folks at Forex Hope. I purposely do not send my customers very many promotions because most the EAs that come out are garbage. Right now I can’t say whether Forex Bling will be good or not, but I have been following the developers of this package for several years now. They have been around for a while and they support their products. It is offered through ClickBank so if it turns out to be crap then just as k for your money back.
Because many of you will probably purchase this package anyway I wanted to offer you a bonus if you decide to purchase through my affiliate link. http://www.fxrobotman.com/recommends/forexbling
I have have been working on a package of MT4 tools that I developed for myself to make my trading easier and to automate some routine functions I perform. I still need about 2 weeks to write the instructions and get them ready to distribute, but if you purchase Forex Bling through me I will give you some of these tools for FREE:
- “Order Entry Scripts”
These scripts allow you to enter Market Orders and Limit Orders and set the take profit and stop loss values in Pips as opposed to calculating the exact price each time. In addition, these scripts will automatically calculate your position size based on your stop loss and the % risk you want to take on the trade. - MetaTrader Restart Indicator
MetaTrader is notorious for eating up the memory on your VPS server no matter how efficient your EAs or Indicators are. Wouldn’t it be nice to have an indicator that can automatically close and then restart all of your MT4 terminals on the day and time of your choice? My Restart Indicator launches a customizable batch file that will close all of your MT4 terminals and then one by one bring them back on. You can specify the day and time you want to restart, and also tell it to only restart if there are no open trades.
++++++++++++++++
That is all I have for now. As always please feel free to email me with questions or comments.
Best of Luck with your Trading,
Ben
