expat1967 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Hi, did somebody try Forex Retarcer already? It is currently running in a forward test by Forex Peace Army and backtests I have seen looks promising. The EA trades AUDNZD 30M only as far as I understand. What are your thoughts/concerns aboout it? Any further backgrounds on limitations or benefits? Btw, this EA is blacklisted in this forum, thus we cannot share it. Lets discuss then only... Cheers Quote
JasonKwok Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 Yes, this is a great EA to have, based on FPA forward testing. But this EA has been blacklisted in this forum. :-( http://indo-investasi.com/showthread.php/5870-Black-Book-List-stuff-you-can-t-SHARE-update-June-2010?highlight=forex+retracer Quote

kidzdad Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Got this reply "I don't publish my live account since I run beta versions of upcoming Retracer's, as well as manual trade. Too hard to distinguish what is Retracer, what is Retracer betas, and what is manual trading. Rest assured performance has been very close to demo, its just live accounts get a bit of slippage on entries and exits. Other than that they match up. Kyle WaitkunasTonik Trading Group, LLC " from the folks at Retracer for a request for a live statement which is not necessarily bad but I would have like to seen a seperate live account statement. If Kyle reads this don't be insulted, there's a lot of junk out there and we're just doing due diligence. Quote

I am in the process of setting up a segregated account just for Retracer to show live trading results. Sent the wire this morning, I should be up and running for tomorrows trade. kidzdad 1 Quote
kidzdad Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 So MandiMil, how did you make out getting set up with Retracer? What broker are you using? Quote
MandiMil Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 MandiMil = TheTonik = The developer of Forex Retracer. They banned my original username for some reason. Quote
MusicMaker Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Stormin_Norman, How do you explain all those glowing, positive reviews at FPA? Quote
kidzdad Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 May I ask the reson for the banning?MandiMil = TheTonik = The developer of Forex Retracer. They banned my original username for some reason. Quote
MandiMil Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 May I ask the reson for the banning? To this day I still don't know. Quote
TheTonik Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Seems they unbanned it. My apologies to the Indo administration. Quote
kidzdad Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Well, good to have you back, how's the segregated account coming along? Seems they unbanned it. My apologies to the Indo administration. Quote
TheTonik Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Well, good to have you back, how's the segregated account coming along? It's up and going as of mid-last week. Two trades taken, both of which hit TP. Quote

Retracer recommends Gallantfx. are u using version 2 tonik? Personally I prefer RetracerPR v2.0.4. This is not the successor to Retracer v1.5.4, but rather an alternative strategy meant to take advantage of the increased volatility on this pair. Retracer v1.5 is no slouch though and holding it own very well. Quote
kidzdad Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 So if a perso n were to purchase Retracer which version do you get or do you have a choice or both?Personally I prefer RetracerPR v2.0.4. This is not the successor to Retracer v1.5.4, but rather an alternative strategy meant to take advantage of the increased volatility on this pair. Retracer v1.5 is no slouch though and holding it own very well. Quote
TheTonik Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 So if a perso n were to purchase Retracer which version do you get or do you have a choice or both? You will get both upon purchase. Choice is yours as to which one you want to use. Quote
expat1967 Posted July 3, 2010 Author Report Posted July 3, 2010 Hi Tonik, can you give us some background on below statement as of the Retracer Homepage: "As a promise I made to myself, my friends, and my current customers to preserve the integrity of Retracer's performance, Forex Retracer will be taken off the marketplace permanently once this timer hits 0. Be assured this is no marketing bluff - it will be gone for good. Review sites will be asked to delete reviews and remove product pages, stats-tracking sites taken down/privatized, this website will go offline and the domain will not be renewed - Retracer will become a 100% private and exclusive EA. Retracer is the highest ranked EA at ForexPeaceArmy and the 26th highest ranked product overall out of the FPA's entire database of 1,700 products. If you have been sitting on the fence, now is the time to hop on board with us before it is forever too late!" Cheers Quote
JasonKwok Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 yup, maybe it's time for Forex Retracer to retire. On FPA, it has been pulled down by Forex Multivers, Profitable FX Cable Run and new entry Forex STF. We were surprised by the FX Multivers performance lately. Quote

Cheers From the beginning I never planned to sell very many copies of Retracer, so I am holding to that promise and taking Retracer off the marketplace. I will still continue to develop and support it in our very active private forum. In fact, RetracerPR v2.1 and Retracer v1.7 are just around the corner and will only be released once Retracer is off the marketplace. Quote
JasonKwok Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 When back test using Gallant FX, no trade and in Journal, the spread is more than 12. How to resolve? Quote
TheTonik Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 When back test using Gallant FX, no trade and in Journal, the spread is more than 12. How to resolve? I'll be glad to assist you if you can prove you are a current customer and not using a pirated copy, given the forum we are in right now. :) Quote
