AboutTrade with Pat

The person behind the system.

Pat Ryan’s 18 years of trading experience shaped the system behind Trade with Pat.

A repeatable process, turned into a system.

The story

The TWP Robot didn’t come first. It came out of a long record: years of trading, years of reviewing other makers’ robots, and many robots of Pat’s own. This is that record, in the order it happened.

The beginning

Pat Ryan started trading in 2008.

The rest of this story came after it: Forex Robot Nation in late 2009, Trade with Pat in 2012 and, much later, the TWP Robot. To this day, Forex Robot Nation introduces its creator as a “long-time trader”.

Late 2009

Forex Robot Nation

In late 2009 Pat started Forex Robot Nation, a website that reviewed trading robots.

Years of testing other people’s robots.

“Expert Advisor Reviews are important because there are no unbiased reviewers in the forex market and someone needs to fill this role.”

The review column of Forex Robot Nation’s home page in March 2010, headed Expert Advisor Review, with the sentence quoted beside it
Forex Robot Nation’s home page, 2010

Its earliest archived home page, from March 2010, describes the method: buy a robot, run it, and read its trading statistics every day to rank the best three. Today every product it reviews goes through a specific set of stress tests.

It began with robots only. Over the years it took in signals, indicators, courses, brokers and VPS providers, with a team of analysts, writers and coders.

From testing to rules

Remove the repetition. Not the trader.

“I have created many robots, and tested thousands.”

Pat, in an earlier Trade with Pat FAQ

The TWP Robot brings that experience into one robot. It takes on the part of trading that repeats, session after session, and leaves the choices with the trader: which set file, how much risk, when to step in. Forex Robot Nation put risk in the same hands in 2010; the first step its home page gave anyone choosing a robot was “Be responsible, manage your risk strategy.”

Today

The system today

Then came the TWP Robot, an expert advisor for MetaTrader 4 and 5.

“It’s been 10 years since I last released an expert advisor.”

Pat, when it came out, in Forex Robot Nation’s review of the TWP Robot
  1. The trader

    Chooses the set file and the risk, on their own account at their own broker, and can adjust settings or step in at any time.

  2. The set file

    A ready-made trading setup that tells the robot when to enter, manage, and exit trades.

  3. The robot

    Runs the opening range breakout inside MetaTrader 4 or 5 and handles the repetitive work: the watching, the checking and the managing.

The philosophy

The system does the repetitive work. The trader stays in control.

The TWP Robot is software. It automates a defined process inside MetaTrader, on your own account at your own broker. You choose the set file and the risk and can change both at any time; all trading decisions are yours. Trade with Pat doesn’t manage accounts or trade on anyone’s behalf, and no outcome is guaranteed. Trading involves risk.
