What do you use to analyse trade history?

Post by WideEyed »

As the title says, what program do you use to analyse your history of trading?

I know there are online services like myfxbook and downloadable software but what do YOU use?

Thanks for the suggestions. One of those is new to me.

I know it's relatively safe to let online services access your stats (and that they don't have access to anything else), but is anyone uncomfortable with allowing such third party access and instead prefers to use software local to their hard disk?

Or do we not have any paranoid types here? :)

Personally, I use MT4i Live as it gives me most of what I want plus the summary view of multiple live accounts is very handy away from your trading desk tucked in the corner of the coffee shop on your iPad.

Also very handy for the more paranoid is MT4i Desktop version, currently free - just ask them for a license key. Then VPN to your VPS and just run it on the VPS direcly attached to account/s.

And finally, the great free EA Analyser from QA is brilliant for building portfolios as well as individual EA analysis.
