We’d like to talk about another FXAutomater’s product today –
Volatility Factor 2.0 is a robot that was designed by FX Automater. It’s a well-known company on the Forex market. The robot was introduced as “The Most Powerful EA On The Forex Market.” Let’s check if this statement is close to true.
Features
As usual, the company repeats the robot’s advantages several times during a presentation:
- The robot works automatically on the account.
- The last version of the robot has received an update that increases its stability.
- There’s a broker spy feature that covers SL and TP levels from the broker.
- It works with four currency pairs GBP/USD, EUR/USD, USD/JPY, and USD/CHF only.
- There are two strategies on the board. We hope it’s not another Grid and Martingale combo.
- The money-management system calculates Lots Sizes based on the balance automatically.
- The robot trades frequently.
- There’s a News Filter. It allows us to avoid opening trades during High-Impact News.
- It supports any type of account: Standard, Mini, and Micro.
- The robot should be used on an ECN account.
- The system supports NFA restrictions.
We can run the system with three levels of risk. Low risk is 1.5% to the account balance (0.10 Lot Size per deal). The moderate risk is 2.5% (0.15 Lot Size per deal). The high risk is 5.0% (0.29 Lot Size per deal).
- Three turtles the system lies on are Prevailing Level, Drawdown Discipline, and Trading Frequency.

People feedback
Forex Peace Army has trading results of the previous version of the robot that was stopped in 2017.
The company hasn’t updated information about the site and product.
Other notes
We remember there were four accounts in total. As we can see, two of them were removed. So, the new version should work better, shouldn’t it?
Is Volatility Factor 2.0 a viable option?
We have no idea how the system will work for the next half a year. Was it truly well-shaped or not? Time will show.
Conclusion
Volatility Factor 2.0 is a renewed advisor that has been live since 2016. The system has backtests that grabbed the data that ended in 2018. So, the new version of the robot wasn’t tested, or its reports weren’t published on the site. The trading results are good, but the system is so young to be a stable trading solution for sure.
