Public real-money results
Public tracking
Check the real-money EURUSD account yourself
An automated system should not be judged from a screenshot or a backtest. The public Nexus account is a real-money account tracked on Myfxbook: history, equity curve, drawdown and activity are visible.
Public tracking
Real funds, public history
The public account is a cent account running the EURUSD strategy. Amounts are shown in US cents: divide them by 100 for the US dollar equivalent. There is no public GBPUSD live record.
Do not judge from one number. Review the equity curve, the maximum historical drawdown (the largest fall from a previous account peak), the difficult periods and the length of the record.

See How the Nexus Forex EA Works
Watch how Nexus works, review the public real-money results, then get your 100% Free Live Trading Licence through a Preferred Broker, or test the software on a 60-day demo first.
Rules-Based AutomationNexus evaluates programmed market conditions and manages trades according to its defined strategy logic.
Position & Exposure ControlsPosition size and account exposure remain important. Nexus configuration includes lot-size and account-risk settings rather than a promise of fixed risk outcomes.
Public Live EvidenceThe Nexus EURUSD real-money account can be reviewed publicly through Myfxbook before you request your licence.
Nexus in Ireland
Can you use a forex robot in Ireland?
Yes. A forex EA (Expert Advisor) is software that runs inside MetaTrader on your trading account. Nexus does not provide a trading account and does not hold your funds: they stay with your broker. The forex or CFD account itself must come from a provider that is authorised to serve clients in Ireland.
Check the provider with the Central Bank of Ireland
Before you open or fund a live account, check which legal entity holds it and whether that firm is authorised to serve you. The Central Bank of Ireland publishes its register of authorised firms and warnings about unauthorised ones. A firm authorised in another EU country may also serve Irish clients under an EU passport, so confirm the exact entity. Independent guidance is available from the CCPC.

Five checks on the account offered
| Check | What to look for |
|---|---|
| Legal entity | Which company provides the account, and in which country is it authorised? |
| Authorisation | Is the provider on the Central Bank of Ireland register, or authorised elsewhere in the EU with the right to serve Irish clients? |
| MT4 / MT5 + EA | Does the chosen account type allow MetaTrader and Expert Advisors? |
| Trading costs | Spreads, commissions, swaps and withdrawal fees, separate from the Nexus software. |
| Compensation | Which investor protection or compensation scheme, if any, applies to the entity holding your account? |

EURUSD from Dublin, Cork and Galway
The EURUSD market on Irish time
Ireland uses the euro, so EURUSD is the pair closest to home, and GBPUSD reflects the UK economy next door. The forex week runs from Sunday evening to Friday evening, and EURUSD is usually most active when London and New York are open together, roughly 1pm to 5pm Irish time. The pair is driven by the whole euro area, the ECB and the US, not by Ireland alone.
ECB decisions
European Central Bank rates and guidance can move the euro sharply.
Euro-area inflation
Inflation releases change expectations for future monetary policy.
Bank of England
UK rate decisions and data drive GBPUSD, the second Nexus pair.
US Fed, jobs and inflation
Big US releases often land in the afternoon in Ireland and can cause sharp moves in both pairs.
Nexus works from programmed conditions rather than manual forecasts. Announcements can still increase volatility, spreads and slippage. Track them on our economic calendar and forex tools. A VPS (a remote computer that keeps MetaTrader running) keeps Nexus active: see the broker and VPS guide.
Investor protection
EU rules and warning signs
What the EU CFD framework provides
- Leverage capped at 30:1 on major currency pairs for retail clients.
- Automatic close-out when margin falls to 50% of the minimum required margin.
- Negative balance protection, per account.
- Standardised risk warning from the provider.
Source: ESMA. These rules depend on the entity holding your account: check the terms of the account you are offered.
Common warning signs
- Promised or guaranteed returns.
- A provider you cannot find on an official register.
- Pressure to deposit quickly or to recruit others.
- Slogans such as "financial freedom" or "passive income".
Regulators, including the Central Bank of Ireland, regularly warn about unauthorised firms. Nexus promises no returns and does not hold your funds.
FAQ
Forex robot in Ireland: frequently asked questions
What is the 100% Free Live Trading Licence for Irish traders?
It is the live licence for the complete Nexus EA pack (EURUSD + GBPUSD, MT4 and MT5), provided when you open or link an eligible live account with a Nexus Preferred Broker and fund it. You do not pay Nexus for the licence. Eligibility and verification apply.
Why is the licence free?
Because you trade through a Preferred Broker. Nexus may receive compensation from that broker when an eligible account is opened through the Nexus link. Your account's deposits, spreads, commissions and swaps remain the broker's and are separate from the software.
How do I get the 100% Free Live Trading Licence?
Start on the free licence page and choose a Preferred Broker. Open the account through the Nexus link (or link an existing account), fund it with an amount of your choice, then submit your MetaTrader account number. Verification normally takes 12 to 24 hours, then your files are emailed.
Which Preferred Brokers can Irish traders use?
Nexus works with AvaTrade, Vantage Markets and RoboForex. AvaTrade's EU entity, AVA Trade EU Ltd, is based in Dublin and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland, as published by the broker. All three offer MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. During registration, check which legal entity will hold your account and confirm the chosen account allows Expert Advisors.
Can I use a forex EA or robot in Ireland?
Yes. An EA is software that runs inside MetaTrader on your own trading account. Nexus provides the software, not the account. The forex or CFD account itself must come from a provider that is authorised to serve clients in Ireland, so check the provider with the Central Bank of Ireland.
Do I have to start with the demo?
No. The 60-day demo is open to everyone, on any MetaTrader-compatible broker, but you can request the live licence directly. Many traders open their broker account alongside the demo to save time.
Can I keep my current broker?
Yes, provided your broker and account are technically compatible. The Own Broker Licence covers one live and one demo account, with EURUSD + GBPUSD on MT4 and MT5. It costs $49.95 a month (cancel any time, or $134.85 a quarter to save 10%) or $499.95 one-time. Your broker's trading costs remain separate.
Are Nexus prices in euro?
Own Broker Licence prices are in US dollars. Your bank or card provider converts the charge to euro at its own rate and may add a currency conversion fee. The 100% Free Live Trading Licence costs nothing in any currency.
What is the difference between a forex EA, a forex robot and automated trading?
In practice these terms overlap. An EA (Expert Advisor) is a MetaTrader program that places and manages trades according to predefined rules. People also say forex robot, trading bot or automated forex trading. Nexus is an EA built for EURUSD and GBPUSD.
What leverage applies to retail forex CFDs in Ireland?
Irish retail clients fall under the EU ESMA CFD measures: leverage is capped at 30:1 on major currency pairs, with a 50% margin close-out rule and negative balance protection. Exact treatment depends on the broker, the legal entity and your client classification.
Which Nexus results are public?
The public real-money account tracks the EURUSD strategy on Myfxbook. It is a cent account: divide the displayed amounts by 100 for the US dollar equivalent. There is no public GBPUSD live record. Review the equity curve and historical drawdown before deciding.
Does Nexus promise profits or a maximum drawdown?
No. Forex and CFD trading involves a high risk of loss. No EA can remove losses, drawdown, slippage or market risk, and past performance does not predict future results. Check the historical drawdown on Myfxbook before deciding.
Does Nexus have access to my funds or passwords?
No. Your funds stay with your broker. Nexus only needs your MetaTrader account number to prepare the licence, never your trading password.
Do I need a VPS to run Nexus?
It is not mandatory, but a VPS keeps MetaTrader and the EA running without relying on your home computer or internet connection. It does not improve results by itself. See our broker and VPS guide.
How are forex trading gains taxed in Ireland?
That depends on your personal situation and the current rules set by Revenue. Nexus does not provide tax or investment advice. Speak to a tax adviser before you trade live.
I have not received my files by email. What should I do?
Files are sent from trade@nexusforextrading.com, normally within 8 to 24 hours for the demo and after verification for the live licence. Add that address to your contacts, check Spam, Junk and Promotions, and mark the message as Not spam. If nothing arrives, write to us at the same address.
