Speed Magic Review Summary
We have seen trading results, and this is great. We don’t see the most important part. Explanations of Straight and Reversal strategies. It would be great to see more details and explanations. Trading results, as we can see, had two periods. The first one was high-risks growing. The second one was low-risks trading with impossibly low profits. The EA places insanely high Stop Loss levels. It seemed that the devs were just joking. -100000 pips, seriously? If the market goes the wrong way, when you see this happened, it can simply be -200 pips. It’ll take 150-200 deals to recover just a single trade.
