Independent Megadroid Review

Posted by Parkzone Corsair in Memory on December 13th, 2010

All links have be removed to comply with articlebase rules…to read the full article go to www.greattradingsystems.com and you will be able to view the links that complete the artcile and it will naturally read more clearly.

Expert Advisors are all the rage at the moment. Sexy sounding names, cheap but hard hitting marketing, claims of untold wealth and all for…..and this is the best bit…..doing nothing. With these self named “robots” you have to do nothing…it will trade automatically and you sit back and watch the money roll in.

I wanted to find out if Forex Megadroid works and does what it says on the tin or is it just a scam? I decided there were several things I wanted to find out?

1) Have traders had “No Losing Trade Since 20th March 2009″?

2) Have traders experienced gains of <strong>”340.33% To 1,193.40%” since product launch?

3) Has it maintained it’s claimed 95% strike rate.

I have been trying to complete a full test of megadroid over the last few months but having had issues with the version of Megadroid I was testing I have decided that my bad experience with running the the EA should not be the basis for a truly independent review. Nothing in life is perfect and nor would I expect it to be so one bad review does not make a bad product. Just like one good review does not make a great product either.

In this day an age it is common to see television advertisements that are promoting a product aimed at target sales of several million units yet their “strict, controlled surveys” that state “89% of users agree” with their self claims are made up of 100 or 200 people. This often means their product is endorsed by less than 0.01% of their target audience.

For such a product as a trading EA that claims to make more than the best fund managers in the world would make in 5 years let alone 1 year it dawned on me that key to making an educated decision on whether Megadroid does what it says on the tin is numbers. Number of reviews. Good or bad.

So in light of that I have been on the hunt for various reviews and test results. Naturally I wanted to also try and produce some evidence in favour of the forex megadroid ea. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to say..”this is fantastic…buy it..trade it…enjoy the wealth you will create with it”. The only issue with finding positive reviews is that most are from people selling it. This obviously brings into question the credibility of the review. Usually such reviews are obvious to spot, most of them have specific “megadroidreview” suffix to their weblinks. But they all usually have a clickbank affiliate link for you to buy the product.

There are also a few megadroid testers who like to post about how great the system is and post on a vast number of forums. They are all championing the Megadroid cause and are very defensive of those call the product or the system creators into question. In normal circumstances I would ignore such reviews but given the lack of other positive reviews out there I have to take their opinion in to consideration albeit with a pinch of salt.

There are plenty of positive reviews for megadroid. Just do a google search and you will see quantities of paid for advertisements down the right hand side. Alternatively, you could do a search for “bravehoststamps” and “pipsbuster” who is one of the MegaDroid testers who has posted on multiple forums about how good the systems is. Although, there are occasions in his/her’s post that admit to some short comings with the system. I only used him/her as an example, I am sure there are plenty more of them out there if you just search hard enough.

Given this I can say that there are some people out there who can ‘claim’ to have had no losing trades since the product launch. However, I have not met anyone who is willing to post real broker statements (not MT4 demos) to show they have made 300-1000%.

As for the other reviews and tests? Well, there are several sites out there that have something other than pure positive things to say about the expert advisor.

Trading Gurus highlight some issues with the Megadroid EA on it’s site. Problems with the

A Review of Arthur and George by Julian Barnes

Posted by Parkzone Corsair in Memory on December 10th, 2010

George Edalji (that’s Ay-dal-ji, by the way, since Parsee names are always stressed on the first syllable) is the son of a Staffordshire vicar of Indian origin and his Scottish wife. George is thus a half-caste, to use the language of his late-Victorian and Edwardian age. He’s a diligent, if not too distinguished a scholar. He is uninterested in sport, is of small stature and doesn’t see too well. He sleeps with his father behind a locked door, is in bed by 9:30, becomes a small town solicitor who develops an interest in train timetables and, by way of outlandish diversion, publishes a traveller’s guide to railway law.

Arthur Conan Doyle (later Sir Arthur) is born in Edinburgh, completes medical school and generally accomplishes whatever task he sets himself, including becoming a world famous writer. Despite the fact that he kills off his creation, the detective Sherlock Holmes, ostensibly to devote time to tasks of greater gravity, popular demand insists that he raise the character from the dead. He does this and proceeds to generate even greater success than before. He marries happily twice and pursues and interest in spiritualism, amongst other good causes.

Perhaps because of who they are, the Edalji family become the butt of the campaign of poison pen letters. When they complain, all they accomplish is the focusing of further unwanted attentions on themselves. When a series of ripping attacks on animals remains unsolved, George, somehow, becomes the prime suspect. Convinced of his villainy, police, judicial system, expert witnesses, jury and press see him convicted of the crime and sent down for seven years. Good conduct sees him released after three.

Sir Arthur wishes to do good and takes up George Edalji’s case. He researches the facts, analyses the possibilities, tracks down neighbours and officials who have been involved. He creates an alternative explanation of events and presents it to officialdom, seeking a pardon and compensation for George, who by this time has transferred to London to start a new life. The two men meet and the incongruity of their assumed expectations of life are as irreconcilable as they are irrelevant to their joint focus on George’s case. After official review, however, the Home Office Committee eventually concludes in an ambiguous manner. Edalji was convicted of the crime and the conviction is declared unsound; but crucially he is not declared innocent. He is therefore found not guilty but then not innocent either and so not worthy of compensation. When, years later, Sir Arthur dies and his associates stage a spiritualist gathering in his honour in the Royal Albert Hall, George is invited and attends, complete with binoculars lest he miss a detail of the proceedings. The illusion of the event draws him in and at one stage he feels himself to be the centre of attention, only to find that it is a near miss. Most of the detail refers to himself and his father, but the reality then points to another who is immediately identified.

But, paradoxically, the quiet George Edalji and his Parsee (not Hindoo) father, Shapurji, were always the centre of attention simply by being who they were. Even Sir Arthur, the son’s eventual champion, states this in one of his letters when he writes that it was perhaps inevitable that a dark-skinned clergyman taking a station in central England would attracts other’s attention of a kind that would seek to undermine him, vilify him and attempt to oust him. The message is clear, that to be different from an assumed norm is to invite hatred, envy, discrimination and eventually ignominy. It is presented as a universal assumption, an unwritten element of universal common sense. Thus, as an intruder, the usual rules of justice will never pertain, a reality alluded to late in the book when George, scanning the Albert Memorial with his binoculars, discovers a statuesque embodiment of the concept of justice that is not wearing a blindfold.

What is eventually so disturbing about Arthur and George, however, is the realisation that both characters are outsiders. George is set apart from his Staffordshire peers by his skin colour and perceived race. Arthur, however, lives no humdrum life. He attends private schools, qualifies as a doctor and then becomes an international celebrity by virtue of his writing. He takes up minority causes and identifies with

Amazing New Apple iMac MB950LL/A Desktop Review

Posted by Parkzone Corsair in Memory on December 10th, 2010

The all new Apple iMac MB950LL/A Desktop truly is a thing, not only of beauty, but also of wonder! Right out of the box, the Apple experience will captivate you and will have you thinking you are living in a parallel universe. OK, so that may be pushin it, but take my word for it, everything about using an iMac is new, fresh and exciting

Designed to look as good as it performs, the iMac MB950LL/A Desktop is a very impressive computer, and that’s before you even turn it on! Updated with a brilliant 21.5-inch LED-backlit widescreen display in a new edge-to-edge glass design and seamless all aluminum enclosure, the new generation iMac is ideal for watching high definition movies and TV shows from iTunes. You can also edit and watch your own videos or photos using the amazing iLife, already pre-loaded and ready to use out of the box. The MB950LL/A now also comes standard with a wireless keyboard and the new Magic Mouse, which features Apple’s Multi-Touch technology. And it’s faster than ever with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. This is simply a great machine. It is quick, responsive and just a joy to use.

The Apple iMac MB950LL/A DESKTOP, all-in-one computer, combines immaculate style with state-of-the-art, top notch hardware. This sleek looking desktop is not only eye-candy that quickly becomes a conversation piece in any room; but everything works smoothly right out of the box with the Mac OS X operating system. You can, literally, set up and reconnoiter (means “explore” this computer five minutes after unpacking it; it IS that user friendly. But don’t be misled, Apple uses some of the most innovative technology and one of the world’s most advanced operating systems to power this “user friendly” little bad boy!

Packed into this sleek computer is an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with each of the two cores running at 3.06GHz, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, and a 500GB hard drive. With these standard specifications and Apple’s streamlined and beautifully integrated operating system, you will be able to run any application you throw at this computer; whether it be just surfing the web, editing photos and movies or running multiple pages and applications at the same time. With the new iMac MB950LL/A Desktop you get faster processors, advanced graphics, more storage, and more memory… making this sweet little machine the fastest iMac ever!

Performance on the Apple iMac MB950LL/A 21.5-inch is certainly very strong for an all-in-one desktop system. Many companies rely on the mobile processors with their lower power consumption and less heat generation. Apple has instead used a full desktop version of the Intel Core 2 Duo along with DDR3 memory. This allows it to power through applications. It would have been nice to see them include options for the Core i5/i7 processor like they do for the 27-inch model but the performance is still some of the best in the 00 price range.

Also unique to the iMac is the brilliantly thought-out integration of the hard-drive within the display monitor, offering you a single unit that gives your desktop a streamlined and clutter-proof appearance. The MB950LL/A Desktop has more than just brains, it’s also got mighty fine good looks! And it comes pre-loaded with Apple’s, industry leading, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (the name alone sound mysterious and intriguing… just wait until you use it!) operating system; an operating system, like no other, custom-designed for the advanced technology inside. It also comes with the highly acclaimed iLife suite of applications, including: iPhoto, iMovie, iWeb, iTunes, and the always fun and engaging Garageband; which introduces a whole new way to help you learn to play piano and guitar. In the Lessons feature of GarageBand, you are shown a video and then a display of the chords are played on a virtual guitar or piano. It even has a built-in guitar tuner. I can only imagine how many budding musicians will be born thanks to this ingenious feature.

To strengthen the iMac’s use as part of an entertainment center, Apple upgraded the speaker system. The new speakers are a vast improvement over previous models, producing richer sound with better bass response and louder volume – you will be impressed. You’ll still want to use external speakers to fill a room larger than 20-by-20 feet, but for bedrooms, dens, offices, and smaller living rooms, the built-in speakers have adequate power.

The iMAC MB950LLA
