Which bots are people using?

[Daz]

wish i realised this and disabled this morning before it cost me the remainder of my account. was trying to go with the flow and accept a rough trot and let it work its way out and now my account is gone.

Is anyone still sticking with any bots?

[Daz]

I doubt it James. Don’t think anyone would trust them given the current market. I don’t know if I could ever trust them again even once everything settles.

I just had a look and super high returns is still trading but losing and honey money looks like its at 0 balance on the mql5 page.

Blake suggested looking at Bushmills as it didn’t cop too much of a hit during recent craziness, lower returns for lower risk. I’d be intersted to hear anyones thoughts on that one?
I def won’t be getting on them for a while until things calm a bit. But don’t think you can blame the bots for what happened recently, we haven’t seen anything like this for 100 years. When I do get back on though I’ll be super strict on my withdraw procedures to try limit risk a bit, not sure what that will look like yet though.
I’m also keen to hear other thoughts though as I’m a massive rookie.

[James W]

I was considering having a look again, after all they are the reason i paid all that money for this service! lol
Would love to hear anyones input?

[Daz]

Also keen to hear if anyone else has continued on?

For me I think it is difficult to just dip your toe in because when you add up the subscription fee and server fee you need to have have a decent amount in there to cover the fees and try and see profit.

Valentine’s Day is practically here! While all the single folks take a moment to sigh loudly, let us remember there is still time to find love (or even something casual) before the holiday.

With that in mind, here are the best (and OK-est) dating apps to try out. My recommendations are based primarily on my own dating-app experiences as a woman. Make of that what you will.

Bumble is basically Tinder for women… and on a timer. Bumble requires women to message first and if the guy doesn’t message back within 24 hours, he loses the potential match. Because that’s the one thing my love life was really missing… arbitrary time limits.

The timer is designed to encourage contact, and some people really do appreciate that feature. But if you’re someone who procrastinates, Bumble may not be for you. Also because women must message first, Bumble tends to weed out the slightly more insecure males. However the rate of overly confident males tends to be higher than I’ve seen on other apps. Bumble also has a BFF feature, but that’s really not the focus of a dating app gallery, so I’ll save it for another time.

Hinge finally won me over, becoming my favorite dating app in 2019. Originally the app focused on common connections and mutual friends that you and a potential partner shared on Facebook, which was a gimmick I was never sold on. But it has since pivoted away from this model. Hinge has designed the app to make user profiles more engaging (and helpful) than on apps like Tinder. You have the option of displaying a lot of useful information that could be deal breakers: your political leanings, your religion, your alcohol consumption frequency or even your interest level in having children someday. And the prompts provided by Hinge do help create more engaging profiles. Hinge’s current slogan is simply “Designed to be deleted,” and if a serious relationship is what you’re looking for, this is the dating app I would recommend.

Whether you’re looking for a hookup or an LTR (long-term relationship), Tinder has you covered. It’s basically the first stop for those entering the dating world. If you want to play the odds when it comes to online dating, you probably need to be swiping where everyone’s swiping.

On the upside the profiles are brief, which allows you to make decisions quickly. The downside is that short profiles make it harder to figure out what people are looking for. Knowing very little about a person can also make initial messaging more challenging. You’ll need to wade through a sea of profiles, which makes it easy to pass over people you might have given a chance under different circumstance

OkCupid, how you confuse me. I have friends who’ve met spouses through OkCupid. My last serious relationship came from OkCupid. In fact, I’ve been on OkCupid, on and off, for roughly the last 11 years. Profiles are much more in-depth than most dating sites, and if you answer a seemingly endless series of questions, they will spit out a reasonable Match/Enemy percentage ratio on profiles to help you gauge compatibility.

Changes in the last year have made OkCupid a bit more like Tinder, focusing more on swiping and eliminating the ability to message a user without matching with them first. You can still send a message, it just won’t show up in the recipient’s inbox unless you match. Because who doesn’t love sending a thoughtful message to someone who might never see it? However, OkCupid has pointed out that these changes did help lower the number of offensive messages users received, which might not be the worst thing.

Coffee Meets Bagel hopes to offer users better quality matches by sending curated matches, or “Bagels,” each day at noon. They suggest ice breakers for first messages and the profiles are more in-depth than Tinder. For people who like a little extra hand-holding, CMB isn’t the worst option. However, I felt the app was confusing to use; too many features and too many gimmicks. I shouldn’t have to lookup online tutorials to figure out how to use a dating app. And why call matches Bagels?

I was also disappointed in the notifications, which were a tad too pushy and out of touch for my taste. CMB was constantly “gently” reminding me to message users I’d matched with and I found myself disabling the app after I received a notification from it that said, “Show [Match Name] who’s boss and break the ice today!” Is it just me or is it weird to imply that a potential future relationship should have a hierarchical power dynamic? At the end of the day, I have friends who’ve had good matches on CMB, but it isn’t my favorite app.

Happn matches you with people who are nearby physically. It’s a cool concept and helpful for people who want to meet someone in a more organic manner. That said, I’ve never met a single person who actually uses the app.

Within the first three hours of signing up, Happn welcomed me with 68 users it said I had crossed paths with, even though I hadn’t left my apartment all day. It might be helpful if you’re looking to date your immediate neighbors (or Uber drivers), but I struggle to see why this is much of a draw when competitors like Tinder already show the distance between you and other users. Frankly, if I saw a cute guy in a coffee shop, I’d rather just approach him than check if he’s on Happn. The app seems designed for people who don’t want to use online dating but who also don’t want to approach people in real life. Pick a lane.

The League is an “elite dating app” that requires you to apply to get access. Your job title and the college you attended are factors The League considers when you apply, which is why you have to provide your Linkedin account. Big cities tend to have long waiting lists, so you might find yourself twiddling your thumbs as your application goes through the process. (Of course, you can pay to hurry up the review.) The exclusivity can be a draw for some and a turnoff for others. Let me demystify the app for you: I’ve seen most of the profiles I come across on The League on other dating apps. So at the end of the day, you’ll probably see the same faces on Tinder, if you aren’t deemed elite enough for The League.
