Autotraders

Autotrading programs are the current big thing: programs that trade on their own, without human emotion and foibles to get in the way of racking up big profits. With the global gathering of human intelligence via the internet, more and more successful autotraders will be developed and made available to the general public; free or at some cost. As these programs prove their worth with steadily growing trading accounts, the word will spread and more people, experienced traders and complete newbies alike, will use them to earn a good living.

So what does this mean to the future of the world? If any man on the street can make a good living from an initial small investment why would he go to work? What incentive would there be for Joe Soap to sweat in an office or factory, working for an inane boss for a paltry stipend? None!

Before the decade is over, there could be millions of people for whom their sole source of income is their trusty autotrading program. From road sweepers to brain surgeons, terrorist organisations to governments, all could be generating untold wealth without having to lift a finger or break a drop of sweat.

With so many people no longer producing anything, where would we get our computers from? The very item that is so critical to our trading wealth would no longer be available, because no one can be bothered to make them. Not only computers, but food, clothing, housing, medicine, etc etc etc - who would go to the trouble of producing anything when they can stay in bed or live a permanent life of partying and holidaying while their autotraders ring in the profits?

Make you think, doesn't it? Is it likely? Well, probably not - Forex trading as we know it would just cease to be and the above is pure fantasy ... or is it?
