So I've been using the Dow Strike trading robot now for a couple of months and here are the results! 37 days of trading, 34 profitable and 3 losing.. made a total of $12,821.58 on a $100k account.. that's a 12.8% return in 2 months! It's particularly active from the US open and can open up 20-50 tr
