Many traders (including me) rate any EA available cheaply as scam. But at the same time these robots r rated as excellent performers in some review websites.

Doubts in our minds r:-

Why selling it if it is successful?
Why so cheap?
Why no proof?
Why saying "only 27 copies left and keep saying it forever"

There can be many other doubts in ur mind. That is why we rate these EAs as scam.

But still there r reviews sites where u can see some legitimate performers + scam performers . It is becoming difficult to actually look for a successful EA.

How do u look for a good EA now?

Review sites r biased. It is similar to hyip review sites. We all know that hyips r a scam but there r so many review sites and people go there and invest. In this way both the owner of hyip site and review site r earning. Users r loosing. Same is the case with EA review websites. Even on forums, scammers make accounts to support their EAs. 

So we have to be careful while investing our amount.

If an EA is unable to provide proof then how can we consider it a legitimate EA?
If an EA is available for few hundred bucks, how can it be legitimate?

These 2 r big reasons every newbie needs to know before exploring for holy grail.

Apart from the reasons u said, they all look similar. One page website full of words, images and self-made testimonials. First time visitors r easily attracted by them but it is hard to attract experienced web users.

Yea, I call those words magical. They try to convince a newbie in every possible way. They have words, videos, testimonals and images of some statements :D. It is very rare that u see a live account and even if u see it somewhere it will be a demo and it will be earning lot less than what they claim. Sometimes it is even in loss with very BIG drawdown. That is why they prefer not to show any live account.

True. I found one robot showing real account. You can check goldsilverrobots.com. They have shown real accounts but the information provided on website doesnt match real accounts. For example they say 10000 deposit and actual deposit is only 1650. Similarly other deposits r also less than wat they say. Track record is less than 6 months. Drawdown percentage is more than profit percentage.[grin]

These r the reasons, no one show real accounts.

Not only unverified accounts but also very short performance history.

The performance is good so far but drawdown is high. I doubt if keep its profitability in long run.
