Hey guys, after several discussion with the myfxbook team
we have realised that it's not possible to lock only manual trades on an account in order
to share it as a widget.

me and many other uses here at myfxbook own different accounts where we trade manually and
using different EAs on the same account. It's a pity that we can't make a custom analysis only of e manual trades.
Therefore it would be a very handy function to lock only the manual trades
( magic number 0 ) per custom analysis and save this in order to share that setting with the public
so that only the manual trades are visible and of course all including information like performance , growth etc.

Really looking forward to that add on.

If you want to provide an account for autotrade, it takes only 3 months time!

You can do a Custom analysis on a Specific Magic Number to display Only the Manual Trades/EA.

This allows you to separate trading systems statistics that were traded all on 1 Account.

Myfxbook would need ' Save Custom Analysis' therefore you can make a speicific analysis and only display this publicly.

It would work similar to the current - 'Account using Custom Start Date' function.

@kslay - I started a New Suggestion Box based on your needs here.

https://www.myfxbook.com/community/suggestion-box/save-display-custom-analysis/671164,1



We don't Need a widget to display your manual trades, We need myfxbook to allow a custom analysis to be Saved for Public Use.

I believe the 2 negative votes are from those who think this would allow traders to Curve fit their Live results by displaying Only Certain Magic Numbers. This can be the case and can also be solved by adding a Warning on top of the system that use this filtering criteria. The 'Custom Start Date' feature is a perfect example of how the feature would work effectively.

Exactly Frank.

I don't want to hide anything actually.
I started my project for exact that purpose, to show that only with manual trading
You can really reach long term profit. There are dozens of ea which might work for some time
But sooner or later you will realize that this is a deadend.

I wanted to show my internal forex group real account facts and compare eas vs manual trading.

Magic_number=0 do NOT identify only manual trade.
It identify trade , that have NO magic !!!
It is possible that EA don't use magic, this trade will also have Magic_number=0
