How to Monitor Your Account on Myfxbook

Hello! I think many of you heard not just once about the importance of keeping a trading diary. Accounting and analysis of trading activity on your account, regardless of that you are trading with the help of expert advisors or manually, is very and very useful. But if we analyze the reports from the terminal manually, it will be very long and tedious task. Fortunately, there is Myfxbook, a service statistics, which performs all analytics of your trading activity automatically. You only need to provide a service with data of reports from the terminal. We’ll talk about how to add monitoring of your account on Myfxbook and basic features of this service (it’s absolutely free of charge) in today’s article.

1. Register on the website http://www.myfxbook.com

2. After registration, click Settings ->Add account
After registration, click Настройки-> Добавить счет

3. Hereafter, there are several methods: simple, sophisticated and using the advisor.

Simple Method

Sophisticated Method

1) As in the simple method, enter Settings -> Add account.
