FAP Turbo Review

FAP Turbo is a Forex Scalping Robot running on MetaTrader4 and MetaTrader5. FAP comes from Forex-Auto-Pilot and it is designed to trade any Market Conditions. The new version 2.0 of the Forex Robot includes Bitcoin Trading plus High-Spread Advanced Control.

 

How does the FAP Turbo Forex Robot Works?

FAP Turbo may trade any account size (minimum $50), but it is recommended a minimum account size of $250. The Forex robot offers a great variety of trading parameters (including money management risk) to fit the different needs of every trader. Find all parameters at the end of this FAP Turbo review.

Bitcoin Trading

The new version 2.0 of the Forex Robot includes also the Bitcoin Indicator. Bitcoin currency is a world known for its high daily fluctuations and that creates opportunities for trading.

VPS Hosting

A VPS service (Virtual Private Server) may be used so that the robot will be able to trade 24 hours per day. FAP Turbo recommends a certain VPS service that costs about $70 per month. But using the Google search, traders will be able to find cheaper VPS services, for about $30-$40 per month.

FAP Turbo Strategy

FAP Turbo is using an expert advisor which is designed to choose when to trade and when to avoid trading on an auto-pilot basis. The FAP Turbo is designed to scalp Forex during the Asian session. Mainly it aims for profits between +5 and +15 pips. Additionally and only as concerns EURUSD, the robot implies an M1 timeframe strategy called “Long-Term Strategy”.

Trading Pairs

These are the pairs that FAP Turbo is focusing on:

• EUR/USD | EUR/CHF | EUR/GBP | GBP/CHF | USD/CAD

According to the developers of the robot, the performance of the system is maximized when trading EUR/CHF and EUR/GBP.

Trading Time Frame

The robot is trading mainly the M15 timeframe, but the “Long-Term Strategy” is using the M1 Time Frame.

 

FAP Turbo Past Performance

According to the FAP Turbo Developers, here is the back-test for the past 11 years of trading.
