Trading Idea

Forex Invest Bot opens multiple trades according to volatility with a fixed lot size trying to capture trend movements; it is the upgraded version of Forex Growth Bot with a similar trading style except for the more trades that might be opened by the Forex Invest Bot - it could exceed 20 simultaneous trades - and the improved entry & exit system being used.

Risk

Forex trading can involve the risk of loss beyond your initial deposit. It is not suitable for all investors and you should make sure you understand the risks involved, seeking independent advice if necessary.

Forex accounts typically offer various degrees of leverage and their elevated profit potential is counterbalanced by an equally high level of risk. You should never risk more than you are prepared to lose and you should carefully take into consideration your trading experience.
