We’ve been getting a lot of emails from concerned members regarding the sponsor of the contest (Commexfx), who notified us of several worrying reviews on other websites (which we weren’t aware of). After a long discussion, we’ve taken the unusual step of cancelling a contest.

We would like to thank all of the members who notified us with this situation and would like to apologize for the inconvenience.

On the same note, a new contest will be announced next month, which you’ll be able to register for.

The Myfxbook team.

UPDATE – August 05, contest cancelled

We’re happy to announce that registration for a new contest sponsored by CommexFx has just started! Total prizes are in total of $8,500:

1st place – $5,000

2nd place – $2,500

3rd place – $1,000

Trading is performed with the MetaTrader 4 platform this time, so you can use experts to trade.

We’re glad to announce the winners of our latest contest. Trading was performed manually on Oanda’s fxTrade platform (no expert advisors) and it was very interesting to see how it developed; The first place trader was far away from the rest, however the 2nd and 3rd place ended up very close to each other:

Top 3 trades are (sorted by equity gain):

1st place Contest – bcfxsignals with 565.35%, winning a $3,000 funded account.

2nd place Contest – wasoono with 403.41% , winning a $1,500 funded account.

3rd place Contest – viettrader with 390.775, winning a $500 funded account.

Hope you had great time participating in this contest! Thank you traders for taking part and thank you Oanda for sponsoring it!

Have a great week,

We’ve added another review section for Trading platforms:

Go ahead and rate your favorite (and least favorite) Forex trading platforms! (If there are more platforms you wish to add to the list, let us know).

We’ve also added a new open trades widget which always shows an updated view of your open trades as seen on Myfxbook:

Have a great trading week!

The Myfxbook team.

We’ve just added support for MetaTrader 5! Although still in beta, you can go ahead and start using it (select MetaTrader5 in account addition form):

Let us know if you encounter any bugs or if you have any comments. Please note verification is not yet supported for MetaTrader 5 accounts.

We’ve also changed the way you see your accounts in your settings – if you’re using portfolios, you will notice your accounts are now grouped in the settings screen in the same way:

Click on the left plus sign to expand/collapse a group.

Have a great week,

The Myfxbook team.

The contest has ended and here are the top 2 traders to win a funded FXCM account:

1st Place: Contest – riyaz22 with 10,106.33%, winning a live $3,000 funded account.

2nd Place: Contest – sambhu with 4,451.46%, winning a live $2,000 funded account.

Thank you everyone who competed and hope you’ve registered to the next contest sponsored by Oanda.

We’ve also added a new feature – you can now set a custom deposit when analyzing your trading activity – very useful when you wish to analyze What-If scenarios:

On the same note, we’re working on an exciting new section for Myfxbook which should be completed soon, so stay tuned!

Have a great week,

The Myfxbook team.

We’ve excited to announce the registration for the next contest, sponsored by Oanda. $5,000 in prizes will be distributed between the top 3 traders:

• A $3,000 live funded account for 1st place

• A $1,500 live funded account for 2nd place

• A $500 live funded account for 3rd place

Important to note that the trading will be performed not on a MetaTrader 4 platform but on Oanda’s fxTrade Practice platform, which also means you can’t use experts to trade – all trades will have to be executed manually – will be super interesting to see how traders perform without the use of expert advisors 🙂

Wish you a great and relaxing weekend!

Also, we’ve added even more brokers to the spreads engine, which now covers the real spread of 68 brokers! (to see all of the brokers, click the ‘more’ button at the top of the spreads table).

Have a great trading week!
