1 Year Anniversary And 1 New Feature – Equity!

Exactly 1 year ago, on September 1st, 2009, Myfxbook was launched – it was an interesting year for us; starting from the dozen of bugs reported daily (which required us to work all through the night) and down to the several outages we had due to the overwhelming growth we’ve experienced and never were prepared for.

Myfxbook was gradually developed (and still is) thanks to your never-ending suggestions and feedback which we are most thankful for. Those who have been with us for a while, know that almost every feature released is asked by our members – we are committed to make Myfxbook a tool everyone can easily use and benefit from.

Since Myfxbook is all about stats, here are some interesting stats for the year Myfxbook has been online:

  • 571,457 tweets were sent using the automated twitter connection to your trading accounts.
  • 21,102 trading accounts are connected to Myfxbook (61% real accounts, 39% demo).
  • Myfxbook has 15,846 registered users.
  • 12,303 emails were received with an average response time of 46 minutes.
  • 1,189 bugs were reported and fixed :).
  • Over 1,100 suggestions were submitted, a big part of which were implemented.

We’ve become one of the leading analysis tools for forex trading accounts thanks to you, so all we want to say is thank you! We hope you enjoy using Myfxbook as much as we love developing it :).

And how about a new feature? Well of course there is one! We worked hard to release the most anticipated and most important feature to date – equity (Yes, we know it took us a while, but like all good things, it was worth the wait, didn’t it?).


You can now see historic equity for each account which will help you asses risk better than ever before. Our systems will calculate equity for each account at the end of each day and as soon as a new account is added.  Currently, 63 symbols are supported (more symbols will be added):

AUDCAD AUDCHF AUDJPY AUDNZD AUDUSD AUS200
CADCHF CADJPY CHFJPY CHFNOK CHFSEK ESP35
EURAUD EURCAD EURCHF EURDKK EURGBP EURJPY
EURNOK EURNZD EURSEK EURTRY EURUSD FRA40
GBPAUD GBPCAD GBPCHF GBPJPY GBPNZD GBPSEK
GBPUSD GER30 HKDJPY HKG33 ITA40 JPN225
NAS100 NOKJPY NZDCAD NZDCHF NZDJPY NZDUSD
SEKJPY SGDJPY SPX500 SWE30 TRYJPY UK100
UKOIL US30 USDCAD USDCHF USDDKK USDJPY
USDHKD USDMXN USDNOK USDSEK USDSGD USDTRY
USDZAR USOIL ZARJPY
*Please note that the equity calcualtion is in its own beta mode and after it’s tested for a short period, the drawdown calculation will be based on equity for an accurate result. Also, equity will be added to the strategies section in a few days.

We’re working on a lot more new and exciting features, so stay tuned!

We hope Myfxbook helped you to learn how to trade better, understand your trading habits and maybe find an investor or a money manager. Feel free to share your experience by commenting below – it would be great to hear your experience!

Once again – thank you!

All the best,

The Myfxbook team.

Custom Statements

Just a quick update:  a small but a very requested change was made today – if you perform a custom analysis on an account, the exported statement (html, pdf or csv) will include the custom period only.

Regards,

The Myfxbook team.

New Stats

We’ve added new stats: total lots/units, profit factor and commissions, in the advanced statistics box:

Also, you can now see an exact win/loss rate par each currency, in the advanced statistics, summary tab:

All of the new statistics can be analyzed in real-time using custom analysis. The new stats will become available after the next account update, as always.

Have a great week,

The Myfxbook team.

New Reviews Section

We’ve just added a new reviews section – Signal Providers:

Use this section to review and learn about the different automated signal providers – if you have used one of the signal providers, do write your experience with it to help other users.

If you know of any other signal providers we’ve missed, do let us know.

More updates:

  • Update failure notification – the notification will also appear in your Myfxbook dashboard.
  • The Myfxbook EA was rewritten to eliminate the existing crash issue reported by some users – please download the new dll and ex4 file (https://www.myfxbook.com/help/connect-metatrader-ea).

Have a great trading week,

The Myfxbook team.

New Stats

We’ve just added daily stats – these stats work the same as the hourly, only per day, to help you find the most/least profitable days for your trading system. As in the hourly statistics, these are based on the opening time of each trade.

The new stats will become available after the next update of your account’s data.

Have a great trading week!

The Myfxbook team.

Is My Account Updating Normally?

A new feature was added today – an email notification option in case your account isn’t updated within the desired period (for MetaTrader accounts):


These settings can be found in your settings area, under the ‘Messages’ tab.

Also, we’ve improved the strategies upload feature and now it supports reports in all languages!

Regards,

The Myfxbook team.

Vouching System

Today we release the very much asked for vouching system:

The new vouching system will help you identify experienced and trusted users and hopefully it will speed up your learning curve by knowing who to listen to .

How the vouching system works? In order to be able to vouch for others, you need to have 3 vouchers yourself – we will be vouching for users during the week to allow them to vouch for others.

You will notice a green bar underneath each username – this is intended to show you the vouching status of each member – a full green bar represents 20 vouchers and more.

Have a great trading week!

The Myfxbook team.

Moblie Version Now Available

Today we release the mobile version of Myfxbook – this is to help you stay connected with your trading accounts on the go:  https://mobile.myfxbook.com

The mobile version gives you instant access to your trading account and to the Myfxbook Economic Calendar. The trading account view provides you information regarding the performance, open trades, open orders and history.

This is an initial and a simple version of the mobile website, so more features and functionality will be added in the future (do let us know what else you need).

Also, we’ve added a new function to the Myfxbook API – ‘get-custom-widget’, which allows you to create custom widgets.

Regards,

The Myfxbook team.
