Forex trading signals software is a valuable tool for any trader looking to make serious money in the forex market. Over the years I've tried many, from the high end to budget software and services, I've tried quite a few. When you're on the lookout for forex trading signals software, I would recommend you to do your research. There's hundreds of offers available, but not all are created equal. I usually prefer signal services and software that comes with a full back end solution, that is, besides the signals (and software) you also get a good trading manual, guides, educational material, but most important of all: You get support from the vendor.
One thing to avoid is automated forex trading systems also known as Forex EA's or Forex Robots. These programs generate massive amounts of hype around the internet, but in my experience, they almost all fail at producing consistent results. Case in point: I was using maybe the best known forex robot out there and it had been steadily building up a small profits by taking a few pips here and there trough a scalping strategy. Then all of a sudden it went on a complete rampage plummeting 50 pips without closing the order. Essentially it wiped out all the small profits in one big failed trade.
That's why I recommend you stay away from such software and instead invest in a full solution. I like those forex trading signals software, that gives you a set of manual rules and checks to follow every time you get a signal. It's sort of a double check and stops you from mindless trading.
