“I have thoroughly tested demo and live on RDP to Hostwinds, Amsterdam based VPS, over 5 months. All pairs with standard set files settings. All ended up in overall loss measured over the period of 5 months.” – A 1-star review.
“I have been testing the free version of this robot and I can say that the paid version is showing also very good results and it is really stable. I will continue using your EAs for sure!!! Thx” – A 5-star review.
“I have many loss for now , I will update my review when I find profits at least in one day. UPDATE: great support for Lachezar, I tried with a broker with low spread and I improve a lot, but it’s still not profitable, I’m going to switch to a demo account to test it better before using it in real” – A 3-star review.
So a wide range of opinions, some making profits, and others have losses. There are also over 100 comments, the developer of the EA has been replying to the majority of the comments which is a great sign to see and shows that if you were to purchase the EA you would be given the support that you need. We would still suggest sending the developer any queries that you have and trying out the free version, this way you can be sure that it is right for you before you make a purchase.
