We’re happy to announce the winners of our latest contest winners https://www.myfxbook.com/contests/forex-contest-squared-financial/23:

(Gains are a snapshot of the time the contest has ended).

1st place – 14,248%, winning a $3,500 prize – Contest – 1RF4N

2nd place – 5208%, winning a $1,000 prize – Contest – pipmasta

3rd place – 850% – winning a $500 price – Contest – skalavox

Important to note that several top accounts were disqualified for multiple accounts under different identities.

Unlike previous contests, almost 50% of the accounts were margin called which can be explained by the trending market. Profitability of winning and losing accounts was similar, roughly 70% win/30% loss, yet average win for winning accounts was 7 pips versus an average of only 2 pips win for losing accounts – traders who were on the wrong side of the trend couldn’t let their winners run.

We’re excited to announce another super advanced section (which is yet again another powerful tool for any trader, unique to Myfxbook!) – Patterns:

Any technical trader knows that searching for a pattern in a chart is a very tedious task and time consuming task – well no more! The new section allows you to view in real time, 60 different trading patterns for over 60 different symbols in 9 different time-frames in a single glance! Our systems will constantly scan the prices for patterns in real-time and will show you (in real time) of any such pattern forming. Not only the pattern is identified, but it is immediately seen if it is a bullish pattern or a bearish one. For your convenience, each pattern has a complete definition.

Important to note that some patterns are neutral ones and so you’ll have to determine the bias (bullish or bearish) on your own. A bullish pattern will be marked with an up arrow (), a bearish one with a down arrow () and a neutral one with a orange circle ().

You can either check the Pattern section to view selected symbols and patterns, click on a specific symbol to view its selected patterns or click on a pattern to view where the pattern occurs with selected symbols only.

The pattern section covers the following patterns:

Abandoned Baby
Advance Block
Belt-hold
Breakaway
Closing Marubozu
Concealing Baby Swallow
Counterattack

Have a great weekend,

The Myfxbook team!

A new year has started and we haven’t stopped development! 3 new features were added this week based on your feedback:

Community outlook notifications – you can now set unlimited, pre-determined levels for the community outlook, per symbol, to be notified in real time once those levels are breached. You can set either a long or a short notification based on percentage, volume, or positions.

Open positions Exposure – when trading multiple currency pairs in different directions or scaling in and out of a position, it is difficult to understand your current total exposure, but no more – you now have an exposure tab which will reveal you in one quick look the exact exposure of your account to the market – you will see total lots, total profits and average entry price based on a currency pair which can also be broken down based on trade direction. For example with the image below, you can see that 15 open trades show in the Exposure tab as only 4, which is simpler and easier to understand:

(Keep in mind the exposure tab inherits the same privacy settings of your open trades, ie for example if you hide open trades, the exposure data will be also hidden).

Trade Management when AutoTrade provider is disqualified – up until now, when a system was disqualified from AutoTrade, any of its open positions were automatically closed in follower accounts. Now you can control this setting in case you wish to leave such trades open (these settings can be accessed from the main AutoTrade page, by clicking the settings icon ):

We’re working on some new sections for Myfxbook so stay tuned :).

Wish you a great and successful year ahead!
