About this strategy

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to lack of interest from subscribers, this system is not operational anymore. If you would like me to return my support on this system - please ask. I cannot guarantee anything but I will try.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entropia is a Forex system that we use ourselves to trade. The system generates signals at about 4:00-5:00 GMT and sometimes at 9:00-10:00 GMT (Europe session). We focused on GBP/USD and sometimes on EUR/USD and USD/CHF. Every signal includes limit order (not market) take profit and stop loss.

We work around the clock to analyze the market. We use state of the art statistics software and methods we developed ourselves.

It is suggested that you should open a demo account at your broker and try it before using real money. You should be aware of money management and the risk in trading.

After said that, we can say than in the past year (from 11/2004) we are using the system ourselves and you can expect about 8%-45% a month. the signal is executed 4-5 days every week without holiday or special events. On bad months we had 2-6 stop loss but usually it append once a month.

The system is easy to follow. We try not to take unnecessary risk and not to overtrade. You can expect steady success rate and in the end of every month to have positive result.

Again, we encourage you to take the trial period and use it on demo account. Only after that you can consider moving to real money.

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
