Default Forex Mercenary

New system just released. The guys who run Forex-Quantum (who seem to be pretty legit to me...they recommended megadroid..) say Forex Mercenary is unbelievable. This might be the next one to try. From what I've read, it looks like a manual system, so it might be worth looking up or comparing to the Blackdog System.

Angry Mercenary is a fraud - Stay Away!!

The product does not work. I waited all day after emailing support to get back an email saying “have you unzipped? have you checked to make sure java is installed properly?”. Of course I had done both. This has got to be the worst launch of a forex product in history. I don’t have a working product or support. I give them 24 hours for a refund & my next stop is the feds internet crime complaint center.

From donnaforex’s forum it’s clear others are having the same problem.

I understand you're upset about the technical difficulties, but that doesn't mean it's a scam

You do understand it's a clickbank product; you can get your money back.

Is there a user manual? Perhaps you overlooked a step?

But then again, why do you need Java installed? I was unaware that MetaTrader robots could even use Java.

It's manual. I'm not sure what the whole deal with Java is...I didn't see anything about it in the video.

Default Forex Mercenary Problems

Forex Mercenary is a standalone system.
It only generates signals and you have to trade by yourself.
The Application is programmed in java and needs to stream currency data from a server which seems to be down or just overloaded.

There is also a backtest function to test the included strategies.
Most of the backtested trades are winners, even on sundays and christmas

best regards,
mike

Angry Forex Mercenary is a fraud plain & simple

The error messages in the java window shown on this page are the same ones I receive. Product not receiving data from their server & timing out. Selling a product dependent on a server which is overloaded or always down is fraud, plain & simple. That will be the line I'll take with ic3.gov & my state attorney general in a few hours, barring some miracle refund. Also, they promised 100% money back. I've copied the web sites, blogs & claims to support this. It's plimus, not click-bank.

Glad to hear this discussion regarding Forex Mercenary. I purchased the product at launch and have not received any product yet. I sent them an email and no response. I hope they are just very busy and will answer my emails soon. We will see.

Hello. Still no word from them. I purchased the product on Tuesday and tomorrow is Friday. I I have not received any product and no email explaining the problem.

So far their customer support is not good.

It just does not work, it's that simple. Keeps firing the same out dated quote , which hit's stop loss first.
Why do "respected" Forex guys and "gurus" risk their credibility recommending worthless scams like this ? May be they are'nt making any real money either and have to resort to sucking blood from the rest of us.
I suppose now I will have to fight to get my money back (again)
