If you're from the United States you may well never have heard of Buru Trader. However if you're a customer of Interbank FX Australia like me, you probably will have done. It's a bundle of two MetaTrader 4 expert advisors called "buru New York" and "buru Tokyo", which IBFX Australia have been promoting over the last few months.  On March 15th IBFX were inviting their customers to find out about:

Yesterday I received another email from Forex MegaDroid support, containing what Albert and John say is "some exciting news… Version 1.10 of Forex MegaDroid is ready for release". Actually it seems it's not quite ready yet, because "we are simply finishing the updates to the manual before making it available."
