SniperFX - EURUSD Review

Today, we are going to look at SniperFX as it is the second system listed a few days ago. Some key data about the system:
Max DD : -10,550
Profit in Pips : -4907
Start Date : 4/24/2007

This system has a very large drawdown and has been unable to generate a profit. When we look at the equity curve, notice how it seems to trend down in an orderly sort of way until recently. Some traders will look at that and may joke how they would like to be on the other side of these trades…and now you can.

Before completely giving up on this system, run it as a reverse. You will see if that creates any opportunities.

All in all, the reverse of this system does not offer any good longer term opportunities as this system trades very frequently and we get eaten up with the spread. We will pass on this system for now.

*Past performance posted by Signal and Systems Providers (“Providers”), is not necessarily indicative of future results. No representation is made that any account is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program. The composite monthly results are primarily hypothetical results of the master demo and its representation of the Providers, though performance results displayed may represent a combination of live and hypothetical results and are not exclusive to either. There are numerous other factors related to markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program that cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results. In the event that specific trades were simultaneously executed in hypothetical and live, real-time trading, the lesser of the two results will be displayed. There is no guarantee that one applying these methodologies would have the same results as the hypothetically posted. Since trading successfully depends on many elements including but not limited to a trading methodology and a trader's own psychology, the web site does not make any representation whatsoever that the above mentioned trading systems might be or are suitable or that they would be profitable for you. Please realize the risk with any investment and consult investment professionals before proceeding. The trading systems herein described have been developed for sophisticated traders who fully understand the nature and the scope of the risks that are associated with trading. Should you decide to trade any or all of these systems' signals, it is your decision.
