Is this a problem, well not really, when you consider the purpose of the mobile web site is a little different to the on line version. The nature of the user situation is very different. People using a cell phone are likely to be looking for local information, or they are on it to pass some time,  and so they may be playing a game, reading e.t.c. It is not a great idea to have a complicated site where they have to enter information or deal with complex navigation links. It’s best therefore to build your mobile website from scratch to capture their email address so that at a later date you can email them to visit your on line site. Your mobile web pages can then be optimised for this purpose. Its useful to include video or audio as a way to explain your business.  A You Tube video will be much more likely to hold some ones attention, compared with say ten pages of text, and additionally it will get ranked in Google search and gain views in You Tube.

To advertise on the mobile network go to AdMob, this site has recently been been acquired by Google and undergone a face lift.  So far its free of all the restrictions hurdles associated with Adwords PPC, and although its not key word targeted, as not yet possible, the pay per view price is only a few cents. This form of marketing is only in its infancy so there is very low competition and consequently great potential here.

You can create a fantastic mobile website in under an hour even including Paypal and other payment platforms such as Google Checkout and Bango.  Go and checkout mobiSiteGalore .  Your new mobile site can be hosted on your own server or on theirs, costs around $8 to $11/ month depending on the package you go for.

Hey guys allan here with just a quick but important post about this traffic getting video my friend George Brown sent me earlier…

First of all… traffic getting? What do I mean by that?

Kind of a weird term I know, so I figured I best explain myself… 

Well, in the words of George himself: “if you watch the video and implement the technique it basically will get you a boatload of traffic to your website”.

Simple enough.

Watch the video, do it and get some extra free targeted traffic to your site, no matter what niche it’s in.

And it works too. George (the techniques “creator”) is using to drive almost 20,000 free visitors to his sites every month. Twenty THOUSAND! That’s nothing to sniff at.

And I’ll say this: This is one technique I’ll be using personally on this and all of my sites. It really is one of the coolest techniques for getting some extra traffic I’ve seen in a long time.

Here’s the link if you want to check it out:

(you do have to opt in to get in but that’s all, it’s completely free).

The video gets my highest recommendation and I highly recommend you guys check it out.

Until next time,

Allan

I will not be able to trade the robot this week as I am moving house, because MT4 is on my home computer I will also loose the MT4 stats data below because it is updated from my home computer.  I will bring the next trading results in two – three weeks time, I hope if all goes well.

Dear Sir

Thank you for your email.

Flexible spreads have been integrated in Alpari (UK) Demo accounts since 30^th July 2009 and will be integrated in all Live accounts on Tuesday 18^th August 2009 (23:00 GMT).

It’s impossible to tell how these changes will affect particular currencies, although there will be a maximum spread for normal market conditions.

You will be getting the best spreads available in the marketplace at any given time.

It is a fact that some currency pairs have greater liquidity in some markets than others.

£/$, for example, has extremely good liquidity in the European markets (as you might expect).

However the natural business that underpins this particular cross is not found in Asia, which in turn adversely affects liquidity.

You will only potentially experience worse spreads if you trade in illquid curency pairs.

The MAXIMUM spreads per currency pair under normal market conditions are listed below.

Best regards

Paul

I guess the only way we will know is trade and check the results.

One of the robots advantages is in spotting an opportunity which a human would miss. Admittedly this does not happen often, but one did last night so I thought I would show you this.

Remember this is on the M15 time scale so you would have to have been there at the time this happened. The robot is quick to enter at the right time making 11 pips.

Alpari Uk have changed their spread system I have just noticed it this week, as the spread figures calculated by FAP Turbo are now moving all over the place when trading during the Asian period. This may be good news, but I am not sure yet. Here is Alpari’s first announcement:

Alpari (UK) introduces flexible spreads – minimums on average 25% lower than current fixed levels

From Thursday 30th July, Alpari (UK) will be tightening minimum spreads across ALL currency pairs and precious metals. Flexible spread minimums will be reduced on average by 25% and up to 60% for some currency pairs compared with current fixed spreads.

With the introduction of additional price feeds, clients will be able to access significantly tighter spreads as we pass on the benefit of the tighter spreads available to us from the Interbank market.

Flexible spreads will also bring a greater degree of price-transparency to clients’ trades along with institutional-level pricing and lower transactional costs.

The introduction of significantly lower minimum spreads supports our commitment to providing clients with the most accurate Forex pricing, better execution and wider market access. We will also take every opportunity to tighten them further in the future.

During certain times of the day, periods of lower liquidity and when there is increased market volatility, spreads will naturally widen. Fully understanding the dynamics of flexible spreads is key to better-informed and more considered trading and the Alpari Academy will soon feature new tutorials and expert, impartial advice on the topic of spreads.

Flexible spreads will be integrated in Alpari (UK) Demo accounts from 30th July 2009 and in Alpari (UK) Live accounts within a matter of days.

Following this announcement a further change is also in the pipeline:

Alpari (UK) introduces flexible spreads – minimums on average 25% lower than current fixed levels – Tuesday 18th August 2009 (23:00 GMT)

From market opening 18th August 2009 (23:00 GMT), Alpari (UK) will be tightening minimum spreads across all currency pairs and precious metals on Demo and Live accounts.

Flexible spread minimums will be reduced, on average, by 25% and up to 60% for some currency pairs compared with current fixed spreads. Refer to the table below.

With the introduction of additional price feeds, clients will be able to access significantly tighter spreads as we pass on the benefit of the tighter spreads available to us from the Interbank market.

Flexible spreads will also bring a greater degree of price-transparency to clients’ trades along with institutional-level pricing and lower transactional costs.

Fully understanding the dynamics of flexible spreads is key to better-informed and more considered trading and the Alpari Academy will soon feature new tutorials and expert, impartial advice on the topic of spreads.

Now I am confused,  is this on top of the first change or not, I guess so ?   I have contacted Alpari UK about this change and hope to post their reply shortly. My immediate thought is great, however, this may mean higher spreads when trading in the Asian period as our pairs are low in liquidity at this time. I have seen the spreads from Alpari go very high at times this week, but then they drop quite low again. Since the robot knows this in real time it can work out when to close and open trades. So as long as the spread goes low frequently enough then things may be better with this system.

So OK…  here are the weekly updated results.

MT4 Stats have last week updated their reporting format with graphical and pip data. The bugs we saw last week are getting less and hopefully MT4 Stats will get even better in the future. Just click the blue box above for the data.

“Payments received: The transaction is under a payment hold for an eBay item. Your money will be released after 21 days. To get your payment sooner, please post the goods now”

Strange, as I posted it straight away and flagged it as posted.!!

I now get,

“Please post the item right away. We’ll release the funds when one of the following occurs:

• you receive positive feedback from the buyer
• it’s been 21 days since the payment date and you haven’t received a dispute, claim, chargeback, or reversal on the transaction being held”

Delving further I find,

FAQ

“I am a new seller, will my money be held?
If you are a new seller and have a record of good performance, you will receive your payment instantly in the vast majority of cases.”

Well not in my case!  what else do you need. I have 100% positive feedback with 96 transactions over 7 years 20 or so selling items the rest buying them.

So I ring the phone line, which is difficult to find on the site. I get through to a load of irrelevent computer generated options, but I fortunately recalled if I keep pressing 00000 I will get through to a real person.  Finally I speak to someone.

Ah, the guy says it’s a random thing and it occurs when an item is classed as high risk, I guess an awning annex is high risk then?  He does not know, like me, but the computer says it could be!   This is probably the case then so absolutely nothing can be done.  Of course the computer is the God these days and no one can make a commonsense decision to override it.  It’s the humans that have become the robots, it happens in all banks.  What has happened to the Bank Manager that can make an informed decision based on your personal circumstances? Eh!

You see the really silly thing about the Awning  annex sale is who is going to leave feedback, the buyer wanted the item urgently as they were off for a 2 week vacation.  So why would they leave feedback, I wouldn’t,  until I have tried it for two weeks to make sure its OK and I may just be bothered leave feedback if I remember when I get back home.

Ok there is nothing I can do, I have to wait.

Or is there? There are many others that also have had this thrown upon them from the Paypal God.

It appears Paypal has a glitch, if you refund say £1.00 to the buyer it releases your money. A pound extra in Paypal is not worth 180 pounds in the Bank, so I will try it.

I have been using the collective FX LLC account to carry out some ideas. The first was to reverse trade with Fap Turbo.  This didn’t work out, I could not see why it would and this proved me right.  I then decided to trade 24/4 to see how the robot coped with trading outside the Asian session.  There were some big wins, but also more big losses, sadly.  This proved that the robot is not designed to trade in trending markets. It was logically taking the right action, but getting caught out as it appeared to be deciding which direction the market was going before a true trend had been established.

My conclusion is FAP turbo should only be trading in periods where there are no trends up or down that are already clearly established.

Percent wins        72.9
Average Win        329.32
Percent loss        27.1
Average loss        486.92
Expectancy        108.1
ROI                        0.1157
No of wins to date       78
No of losses to date    29

MT4stats have this week updated the layout of the stats. There are still a few bugs with the graphs, but they are working on this and hope to have the various errors fixed by the end of this week.
