So how did Gomega GBPJPY do in the back test? The test was run across the same time period that we have live results for. Which is from October 5, 2008 thru to April 10, 2009. Beginning with an account size of $5000, the Gomega GBPJPY back test completed with a closing balance of $8174 which is a 63% gain. This compares very well with the live results from Gomega clients. Andreas Maeder’s account began live trading on Sept 2nd 2008 with a starting balance $10,000. And by April 6, 2009, the account had reached $19,909.24. A gain of 99% in just 7 months. You can see Andreas, from Switzerland, talks about his Gomega settings for trading the Pound Yen. Another client traded with a $5000 demo account over the same period which hit a closing balance of $14,608.67 by April 3rd, which is a gain of 192%. And another client traded a live money account starting with $5000 beginning on October 5th, 2005 and by April 10 it had reached $12,811.01 or a gain of 156%.

Here I’ve taken the chart from the back test and superimposed it over the live result charts (Sean, Greg). I then color coded the balance curves to make it easier to compare the results. The blue line is the live money account, the green line is the forward demo test and the orange line is the from the back test.

Unfortunately the Metatrader platform isn’t able to include the equity balance in it’s chart for the detailed report. This, along with the account balance, would give a significantly better profile of the trading performance.

In order to illustrate this point, I’ve decided to plot the equity balance onto the account balance chart. Each red dot represents the current equity balance at the end of each week. The green line is a simple approximation of the equity curve. As the only equity balance data I have, is from the detailed weekly reports Metatrader has generated and I’ve only been producing those once per week. It would be nice if a plugin were available for Metatrader that could log the equity balance and render a detailed graph at the push of a button.

Notice the red dots are not evenly spaced, as Metatrader plots the horizontal axis on a per closed trade scale, not on a linear time scale. So the distance between the dot 5 and 6 from the left, is just one week. That is the week before last week, which was a very active week for Gomega Xray. It was during that week, that the large disparity between the account balance and equity balance became abundantly clear. They were for much of the week moving in opposite directions, the account balance was falling yet the equity balance was generally significantly higher. Of course the account balance will see a decline, if trades are exited at the stop loss value, the equity balance includes all open trades, many of which are likely to be closing in on their profit targets. Of course when you have the software trading right in front of you, you can see this effect, first hand. Which is what motivated me to make the above video.

The results so far: With the first trade, Gomega adjusted the trailing stop as the price rose but when the market retraced, it exited the trade at zero gain and zero loss.

The second trade was very similar, however this time the market moved somewhat higher before falling back. Again the trailing stop was triggered and Gomega exited with a small profit.

Gomega GBPJPY has been designed on a principle of steady, consistant gains, over the long term. The results of the forward test are so far are very good and indicative of what we can expect from trading with Gomega GBPJPY. Tomorrow I’ll also begin doing some back tests as well, to get a clearer picture how well Gomega GBPJPY performs. Quantum have already published live trading results from their clients who have been trading Gomega Autotrader for the past 8 months. So we already know that Gomega performs very well on the Pound Yen pair.

Quantum research are so confident with the profit potential of Gomega GBPJPY, they have announced a full one year profit guarantee for their clients. Essentially they are guaranteeing that Gomega GBPJPY will at least double your account balance over a one year period, or they will refund the full purchase price of the software. That is an impressive guarantee and just goes to show how supremely confident Quantum Research are with their Gomega GBPJPY. You will be able to see the full details of the guarantee on their sales page when Gomega GBPJPY opens for sales Tuesday. In the mean time, you can see them announce this in the video “The Offer Guarantee & More“.

The only problem I have with Gomega GBPJPY is that there is only a 3 day window in which to purchase this software. I’m sure many people will learn of Gomega GBPJPY after sales have closed. However this is always the case with the Gomega automated trading software. So if you do miss out on this launch, then I highly recommend you get on my VIP notification list, so you don’t miss out next time.

So what’s wrong with retiring? If you’ve got enough money to enjoy a sufficiently comfortable quality of life or at least maintain the quality of life you are accustomed to. Then retirement is great! Of course for most of us, the idea of retiring is in the distant future. Something to store away a little nest egg for, so we can enjoy the golden years of lives.

Wrong! In the current economic environment, retirement is probably closer than you think, and by that I mean forced early retirement. As for your nest egg you’ve been working so hard to build up. Let’s not talk about the 401K scandals, housing market crisis, credit crunch, stock market collapse, investment fund scandals, multi billion dollar bank handouts with your future tax dollars rewarding ivory league white collar (you fill in the blank). In short, a complete economic meltdown. And lets not even go into who authorized corporate subsidies to export your work to China.

These are all reasons why you may never be able to retire and enjoy your life, follow your passions and fulfill your dreams. These are all reasons why you end up working to the end of your days to make money for someone else or perhaps worse.

This doesn’t have to be your reality. Your life can and should be better but its up to you to make the choice. So lets talk about how you can retire and enjoy your life. And how you could do so within just 4 short years.

In the midst of all the doom and gloom around us, there is one thing you should know. Money is never destroyed, it merely changes hands. You can exchange your time for some money or you can exchange money and free your time. The biggest money market in the world is the foreign currency exchange market (FOREX). Over US$3.2 trillion in foreign currencies from around the world change hands every business day of the week.

If only there were a way to tap into this with an automated system, that could profit from the changes in the currency prices, 24 hours a day. Well there are many such trading systems available. The best of them can make money consistently over time. One such example of an excellent automated Forex trading system is Gomega Xray.

While it is not possible to buy Gomega Xray at this time, there is another extremely exciting offering from the creators of Gomega. In a week from now, they will release a new version to their extremely popular GOmega Autotrader FX. This newest version of Autotrader is named Gomega GBPJPY.

Gomega GBPJPY is dedicated to trading the Pound Yen, currency pair. This currency pair has been very profitable for Gomega owners, some of whom have made their live trading results available to Quantum to publish on their website. Jonathan and David present a Four Year Retirement Plan based on the compounding profits possible by simply using Gomega GBPJPY to trade on autopilot from a starting balance of just $5000. At the current rate of equity growth, within 4 years, the balance would be over ONE MILLION DOLLARS. Hence the title, the Four Year Retirement Plan.

Quantum meet a Gomega Autotrader client in Switzerland

Last week Ken Herbert Snr. and Jonathan Herbert of Quantum Research presented a video of their meeting with one of their clients who lives in Switzerland, who had almost doubled his live trading account in 7 months, trading the GBP/YEN currency pair and on auto-pilot using Gomega Autotrader.

More GoMega GBPJPY Videos released by Quantum Research

Another video is now available where Ken Herbert Snr and Jonathan Herbert take you under the hood of the Gomega GBPJPY Autotrader. This is a very interesting video and very informative for anyone considering investing in Gomega GBPJPY or simply trading this currency pair. The video goes into great depth showing the indicators and signals Gomega GBPJPY uses in determining when to open or close a trade. If you are new to Forex then this may be a little overwhelming at first, however the best part is that Gomega GBPJPY handles all this complexity for you, you only need to set few preferences such as Risk per Trade, Stop Loss and Take Profit preference.

The GoMega GBPJPY Under the Hood, is a truly fascinating video which not only takes you inside of Gomega GBPJPY but through a trading week with the Gomega GBPJPY as well, I highly recommend watching it at least once if not 3 times.

Part of the reason for the string of losses in my view is Gomega Xray trades multiple currency pairs and one of the entry criteria is the cross currencies strength for each of the pairs being traded. So if the market direction changes or goes against Gomega, Gomega will likely have many little losses in a row as the stop losses are triggered. Of course the opposite is true when Gomega is on the right side of a market movement, the result being many big wins in a row.

This is precisely how last weeks trading had been. Gomega found itself on the incorrect side of the market movement a couple of times as well as having some positions that were peaked out during major news events. Those news events without doubt had sent a cascade of stop losses rippling across the markets. Perhaps a great oppurtunity for the dedicated manual trader? However regardless of this, Gomega was still in the trade on several positions since the beginning of the week and earlier. And as the Euro continued to strengthen during the week, Gomega’s equity position continued to grow, even though its balance was down.

By the Friday afternoon, Gomega had closed out several positions it had been holding and ended the week with a balance of $7296 and equity of $7478. So that was a gain of $2296 or 45% in less than one month.

While the weeks trading did not produce a nice smooth balance curve, the end result is still really impressive. If only Metatrader were able to show an equity curve that included the equity balance, it’d be better to visualise how the trading situation had progressed. Another limitation of the chart s produced by Metatrader are that the horizontal axis is constructed on a closing trades basis rather than a fixed unit of time. So the end result is a somewhat distorted view.
