Having used Forex Auto Scalper for a week now on a demo account with FXPro I decided yesterday that it should be added to my live account.

Currently I trade EURGBP and EURCHF live using FAP Turbo. As mentioned my account is with FXPro and their MetaTrader 4 platform is loaded up on my ForexVPS account. This is a virtual server that means I don't have to worry about running the service on my own computer and the potential problems that might bring.

Having made the decision to trade Forex Auto Scalper on my live account I had to get the EA from my PC to the VPS. I tried a couple of methods but ended up using FileFactory to upload the file from my PC and then download it on the VPS. Not particularly elegant and I'm wondering whether I could have used the Remote Desktop facility in XP, anybody have an idea on that at all?

One of the constraints that FXPro imposes is that I have to use fixed lot sizes rather than the recommended method. This doesn't seem to have been a problem with FAP Turbo so I'm hoping it won't be here.

As Forex Auto Scalper trades the EURUSD it is in play from 7AM GMT to 4PM GMT which works nicely with FAP Turbo as that trades from about 8PM GMT through to the early hours.

It will be interesting to see how the Forex Auto Scalper works on a live account as there is always a difference from a demo account.

Check back to see how things go from tomorrow.
