When we click on the systems, we can see the gain of the systems. Can we have a gain per month and how long has it be running. :)

Yes, that is went you go to the individual system. But not at http://www.myfxbook.com/systems

I find it useful as at this page, i will be doing a comparison between other systems. The gain indicated there is not useful as it could be a gain of 30% over 12 months compared to a 15% over 3 months.

So we need to click one by one to see the gain per month.

Hi,

Also would be nice if Gain / Pair / Month can be seen on the stats page.

I'm starting to struggle to follow the systems, to many. Nice sharp ratio or something that compare's them would be nice.

I think Myfxbook should come up with its own rating system, based on what people look at......lets look at what people look for :-

1. What % return is this system doing?......a projected annual % is good as it allows people to compare with their local APR rates.
2. How long has it been running? a system running for 6 months carries more weight than 1 running for a week.
3. What has its drawdown been like?

So a simple formula would be something like 'projected annual % * running time / drawdown'

Maybe oversimplified but I think it could work.

This is an excellent suggestion.

We've been very busy lately working on features suggested by our members, so once those are done we will see how your suggestion can be implemented.

Thank you.
