The capability of filtering your history so that only records between 2 dates or from a specific date are shown; and being able to re-load the data so that it only shows your data calculations (such as gain/loss, charts, advanced statistics, etc) based on the dates selected in the history filter.
Examples:
1. Between 2 dates: 01/01/2012 to 31/12/2013
2. From a date: 01/01/2013 to current.

Voted no. Full, plain and clear disclosure is always the best policy. Let the observer decide for himself what is and is not noteworthy from the overall record/history. MyFXBook and its features are for improving accountability, sharing and transparency, not deception.
If this were to be implemented at all, it _must_ be with the following caveats:
A: A clear notification and warning that the history is filtered and the nature/scope of the filtration; between which dates/from which date onward the records are shown vs the full duration of the overall record.
B: A mandatory field which clearly displays the reason/justification for filtration (yes it could potentially be filled in nonsense/gibberish but that's obviously suspicious).
C: Observers are given the ability to quickly and easily see the full, unfiltered record of a system/strategy at their option.

I can't disagree more with you!!!
It seams that more and more users of this site have the intention of viewing peoples accounts so that they can either scam people with fake stats or look for traders to do the work for them!
MyFXBook is used by many traders as an analysis tool. And as an analysis tool flexibility is required to data mine your stats!
Another option is that the filtered changes are only shown to the owner of the account and not public users and that would be fine!

If the filtration is only visible for the owner of the account, that's fine.
