Forex Killer Scam or No Scam?

FOREX KILLER SCAM OR NO SCAM?
If you’ve been trading Forex and you haven’t heard of FOREX KILLER, don’t feel bad. You’ve probably stumbled across my blog while trying to Google whether or not Forex Killer is a scam. First off, let me say I’m not like the 100’s of other idiot bloggers out there “reviewing” Forex Killer while putting my affiliate link to their program in somehow.
I do not get paid for promoting Forex Killer, even though I belong to click bank I refrain from promoting something you might lose money with. This review is unbiased and is as fair and balanced as possible. Secondly, most of these bloggers probably didnt even purchase Forex Killer like I did, therefore I have first hand knowledge on this software as well. That being said, let me say that Forex Killer is not a scam. When used correctly, Forex Killer makes you pips, makes you money. But Forex Killer is nothing BRILLIANT, as I will discuss later on. I will say though, that Forex Killer has put itself through a mass media campaign, blanketing 1000’s of sites with their links and good reviews, which, for the most part, obscure unbiased reviews such as this one. I have yet to see someone actually try out Forex Killer in real time or without a sales pitch like this blog entry does.
I’ve even seen on Youtube a handful of videos showing “real” testimonies from people making money with Forex Killer. Interestingly enough, these videos of women testifying to the effectiveness of Forex Killer are popping up. The very attractive young lady from Mexico City seems to be reading verbatim off of a script on the screen. The other lady seems to have a basic knowledge of the software, but she fumbles around with her speech, looks at the screen a few times and regains her train of thought… talking points on the screen perhaps? All valid questions that can be posed to the makers of these videos which coincidentally are closed for commenting. The Forex-Killer.com website has pictures of Dodge Vipers, beautiful summer villas, leading you to believe that the owner’s are living it up based on predictions made by this software. Maybe they are, but most likely they are living it up from selling 1000’s of people Forex Killer, but that’s just conjecture.
The Plot Thickens (For Me At Least)
At the end of November, I emailed Forex Killer’s support department voicing concerns over why my version of Forex Killer looks so “dinky” compared to the one in the video example I saw on Youtube and in the screenshots on their site. Still haven’t gotten a response. The video was from August. I paid $97 in November for a version of Forex Ki
ller which is clearly outdated months ago.
I even read on another blog somewhere, a guy saying he got the “updated version of Forex recently” but could this have been one of their clever marketers making this post to make people who like to investigate things, like me, think they’re going crazy or just plain feel stupid for not being able to find the new version? Maybe they hope we missed the email from them? At any rate, this “dinky” version of Forex Killer prevents me from automatically feeding data into it from Meta Trader 4, rather I have to sit there trying to enter them one by one. This newer version of FOREX KILLER has a title of FOREX SIGNAL SOFTWARE in the title bar for the application and allows you to click one button and the price data is entered, no fuss. This all makes me wonder if Forex-Killer.com is the original Forex Killer or is a derivative of some other software? I hope not, I really thought I was going to get the software on the right. At any rate, I hope I am wrong and they email me soon to rectify this discrepancy, maybe there’s a secret page for a download for the newer looking version.

Enough With The Drama, Does Forex Killer Work?
As for it’s functionality, I read through the instructions a few times, and was left wondering how this can be effective at any time of day for any pair but after using it for a while I answered my own question. Forex Killer, quite simply, takes the previous 10 closes and works out if the trend is going up down, or is flat. This also begs the question, if the hour trend is up, and the 30 minute, 15 minute, and 5 minute are down, which trend should you trade? Forex Killer really doesn’t spell that out for you, nor will you be getting clear entry and exit points from them. That being said, most professional traders, guys who have been in the business for years can probably look at a chart and within 2 seconds figure out exactly what Forex Killer is going to tell a beginner for the price of $97. Inevitably, nothing can predict the final movement of any pair in the Forex market, don’t expect Forex Killer to do that either, that’s why they say X% effective trades, because even price can go against the trend from time to time.
PLEASE DON’T BE FOOLED BY OTHER PEOPLE’S “REVIEWS”
For instance, visit this page http://www.squidoo.com/forexkillerreview , this guy paints this bright picture of Forex Killer, but at the end, puts his aff code at the bottom = TOTALLY BIASED!
So be warned: Any “Review” Of Forex Killer that ends with a link that has “CLICKBANK” in it somewhere, it means the reviewer is biased. Not necessarily lying, but he has a good reason to, and that reason is financial gain. Some webmasters even redirect pages from their site to mask the link. So, rule of thumb, any review of any Forex software, without a link to the program, means its fair and balanced.
So, Should I Buy Forex Killer?
Experienced traders can skip purchasing Forex Killer, especially if we’re not going to be getting the nice version which allows for automatic import of data from MetaTrader4. If you’re not an experienced trader, I do actually recommend the investment of $97 or $87, depending if you catch the $10 off IM Window. Simply because, if you read it correctly, you can make $97 in a day, so the cost of this isn’t really an issue. I’m sure the issue is not wanting to get ripped off for any amount of money, I feel the same way. After buying Forex Killer, I am not left with that feeling, I made money back, but I am not making a fortune, yet at least. The choice is yours inevitably. I always recommend finding a mentor that can actually teach you how to spot trends on your own; “teach a man how to fish” you know the rest.
FOREX KILLER USEFUL OR NOT: USEFUL
