Introduction
Here we are, yet another trading robot to be looked at and assessed with a critical eye. Today, it's the turn of Touch VWAP MT4. Don't let the interesting name deceive you; trading bots are no exception to my sceptic's rulebook.Description of Functions
The claim is that Touch VWAP MT4 aims to offer a strategic edge by integrating a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) mechanism. The VWAP supposedly aids in identifying the true average price of a currency, taking volume into account. It's said to offer entry and exit signals, presumably based on this VWAP. The concept sounds interesting, but we know life is not as rosy as it sounds, especially in the world of forex.Analysis of Results
The magic 5-star rating, and our good friend freddddddddd seems to be having a decent time with it, even if it does occasionally cause his MT4 to close. But let's not forget that the devil lurks in the details. The true test is in its performance over the past year. You can scrutinize the specifics of the bot at the website.Pros and Cons
In the spirit of fair play, let's examine the potential upsides and the inevitable downsides, shall we?- It's free. Although we all know there's no such thing as free lunch, especially when it comes to trading bots.
- It uses VWAP, which could be advantageous, given it's a fairly novel approach in a bot.
And for the cons:
- Seems to have a tendency to close MT4. That’s a bit like a chauffeur who occasionally likes to eject his passengers onto the highway.
- Lack of transparency of the underlying mechanism.
