Forex Gump is an automated Forex expert advisor, which was released on August 3rd, 2017. This EA was created and developed by the Ukrainian developer Andrey Kozak. He has over 50 expert advisors on MQL5 and it is quite confusing whether it is the same or not. The developer of this trading software advertises his product as a good expert advisor “with trendy a candle and News Filter”.
Today in this Forex Gump review we are going to analyze this robot and find out the advantages and disadvantages in dealing with the automated trading software.
Forex Gump Overview
The EA uses 3 different settings and it is said that it adjusts to different market conditions and includes an in-built protection system that can protect traders’ accounts from big money losses.

The robot can be adjusted to High, Middle, and Low settings.
