You may have heard that there is a fortune to be made on the foreign exchange (forex) market even with very little trading capital. There is some truth in this, but it is also true that you could lose your shirt, as well as the rest of your clothes, if you trade in the currency market and you don't know what you are doing. This is because, to make real money in the forex market, you need to trade using leverage. Essentially, you are trading using money borrowed from your broker. If your trades are successful, then your small trading account could return hundreds or thousands of dollars in profit; on the other hand, if your trades go south then you are also liable for any losses, which could be substantial.

This is why an increasing number of beginning and small forex traders are turning to so-called forex robots or automated foreign exchange trading systems. These forex robots implement your trades for you 24/7, even without you having to monitor them. You just have to harvest your profits when they start coming into your account.

One of the most popular automated trading systems on the market now is the Forex Autopilot (FAP) Turbo software. FAP Turbo is an upgrade of the original FAP software trading robot, with added features which make it safer and more profitable for users. For example, the FAP Turbo now has a fixed stop loss value, which means that it will stop trading when your losses hit a certain amount; this will limit your possible losses. The program also has additional filters to stop trading when there are risky, unstable conditions on the currency market. These new features have helped this automated forex system trading software to achieve a winning trade percentage of 90% based on back tests from 1999 to 2008 as well as results from live trading.

FAP Turbo is programmed with two strategies - short-term scalping and a longer-term strategy. Scalping is taking advantage of short moves in currency values to make trades. But once you have more experience and have created your own winning strategy, you can adjust the parameters of the software to your own preferred ones.

FAP Turbo works with the MetaTrader 4 trading software. If you already have an account with an online broker, then you can usually download this platform for free from their website.

Another advantage of buying this forex software is that you can access the members-only FAP Turbo Forum, which provides support for users of the program. The programmers behind the software, Steve Carletti and Mike, are reportedly very active on the FAP Turbo Forum, so you should have no problem getting the software to work. You can also participate in the Forum's monthly mentoring sessions.

FAP Turbo is available for $399 although a limited number of copies are being sold for $149. Once you purchase and download the software, not only will there be no recurring charges, users are entitled to download regular monthly updates of the software. It also comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee so you can try it for yourself risk-free and see how FAP Turbo can help you make profits in the forex market.
