New Stats!

Today we release another tool for your trading performance – the hourly statistics (can be found in the ‘Advanced Statistics’ window):

As you can see from the image above, you can choose between 4 different comparison metrics (based on the open time of your trades):

  1. Winning traders vs. losing trades.
  2. Long trades vs. short trades.
  3. Profit on long trades vs. profit on short trades.
  4. Profit on winning trades vs. losses on losing trades.

These metrics will help you even better understand when your system is performing better and when worse. Also, if you choose a custom period for analysis, the data will recalculate in real-time to include only the selected period.

The new statistics will become available on the next update of your account.

More features are being worked on, which will be available very soon!

Have a great  week,

The Myfxbook team.

New Strategies Section!

Today we proudly present the Strategies section – a lot of work has been put into this section in order to provide you some very useful and powerful features:

  • Ability to analyze, organize, group, sort, archive, study and share any strategy tester reports you create (back-tests).
  • Learn, discuss, compare and search for any strategies you use or have used in the past to find the most optimized settings.
  • Minimize development and testing time by working with the community to get results faster.

No more need to save your statements on your PC and then browse between reports to compare them – now you can just upload the strategy tester report (either the original, or zip it for faster upload), get it analyzed and archived immediately, and be able to quickly and easily see and refer to past tests and much more with a few clicks of your mouse.

If you have any suggestions, do let us know as always by using the suggestion-box or by contacting us privately.

This section is in it’s own ‘beta’ mode and if you encounter any issues, do let us know so we can quickly resolve it. There are many more features to be added to this section, but since the list isn’t ending, we wanted to release this section as soon as possible, so there you go .

On another note, our first contest has ended and the winners will be declared in a couple of days.

Have a great trading week!

The Myfxbook team.

RSS feed was added (latest discussions), you can find it in the bottom menu.

Servers Overload

Guys, we’re currently experiencing some increased load on our servers which happened due to increased browsing after the contest opening, which we weren’t expecting.

We’re working to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

Registration For The Contest Has Ended!

Well, after just 2 weeks of the registration period of our first ever contest, 588 traders have registered!
The contest is scheduled to start in just 2 days. If you haven’t connected your account to Myfxbook yet, please do so, as it’s the only way to track your rank in the contest.
Those who haven’t opened a demo account, or have chosen the wrong account as their contest account, will receive login credentials for a new FXDD demo account.

Once the contest starts, a new section will be revealed in the contests area of Myfxbook, which will allow you check your rank and track (live) the progress of each trader.

We’re also working on some new exciting features which will be released in the following weeks, so stay tuned!

Happy trading and good luck in the contest!
The Myfxbook team.

1 Week Left For The Contest Registration!

Over 350 traders have already registered for our first trading contest – have you? If not, then go right ahead and register – only 7 days are left for registration, what are you waiting for? $3,500 will be given out!

Also, if you haven’t been reading in the community section, FXDD have lowered the trading requirement size for withdrawing your prize to mini-lots trades instead of standard lots (1/10 of the original requirement).

On another note, we’ve added a new review section to our website – Expert Advisors. So if you’ve been using a commercial Expert Advisor and want to share your experience with the community, you’re more than welcome.  If you want us to add your commercial EA, let us know (It’s free!).

Have a great week,

The Myfxbook team.

Contests Are Finally Here!

We are proud to announce the opening of our new contests section! You can now register to the first contest which will begin in 2 weeks time:

Although you compete with a demo account, $3,500 will be given out (yes, real money):

  • $2,000 for first place
  • $1,000 for second place
  • $500 for third place

We would like to thank FXDD for being the sponsors of our first contest ever! Thanks guys!

Some more updates:

  • We have created a new MetaTrader connection wizard and troubleshooter for quicker help.
  • We have created a new Myfxbook EA which doesn’t use the built-in publisher (FTP) but it’s own connection (HTTP) to our servers. In other words, it’s much better than the publisher. Check out the differences here.
  • Brokers can now be sorted:

The Myfxbook team.

2 New Languages And New Features

2 more languages were released today for selection as your default interface language: Slovak and Czech.

Myfxbook is now available in 5 languages: English, Russian, Polish, Slovak and Czech. Well done guys!

Also, we’ve added some new features to the economic calendar. Clicking on the ‘more’ button in the calender, will open up the following menu:

– You can now filter the calendar to show only events you’re interested in seeing and are relevant to your trading.

– You can schedule a notification per each event, which will be sent to your email address. All you have to do is click on the bell icon for each event you would like to be notified for:

Some other updates:

– You might have noticed the website works much faster; we’ve upgraded our servers the past week to handle the increasing load, and it definitely made a huge improvement.

– We’re working on a more robust solution to replace the MetaTrader’s in-built publisher, since it often disconnects and fails to resume. More details soon.

– We’re working hard to complete and open the contests area, and hopefully it will be ready in the following week or two.

Happy Easter!

The Myfxbook team.
