An easier way to navigate, find and contribute information on FxStat


FXStat proudly announces its new Dashboard, a tool especially designed to suit our users’ need and to improve forex trading. We know the importance of time in our daily activities and we also know that time can make a huge difference when it comes to Forex trading. That’s why we set up a new front page, the dashboard, where you can easefully find all the information that you need to access when opening your FXStat profile.

We began the redesign effort several months ago by analyzing how people use FxStat website. We looked at what features traders use the most on the site. Armed with this information we began doing design explorations of how to better organize FxStat features, and make them more convenient to use.


The new dashboard maintains all the features FXStat had in its previous version, rearranged so as to ease up your access to the information you need, while adding a very important tool: Activity Stream. The Activity Stream section allows you to post news, short comments, updates and to follow the activity of other FXStat members You can also share your content directly to your twitter feed or facebook wall while you are sharing information in FxStat activity stream.

The Activity Stream represents a flow of real-time information that you can use not only to catch up with your FXStat connections activity, but also to receive trading tips or news that influence the market.
We went through numerous iterations until we arrived at a design we felt worked the best. One of the key features of the new design is that it allows much more space for page content , trades, news and information about you and other traders.

The fresh new look will keep all of the previous Dashboard features, as the Economic Calendar, your Connections and your Accounts sections. At the same time, you will find a menu where you can customize the section you are interest in: Economic Calendar, Latest News and Networks trades.


We are now doing limited testing of the new design. We are still iterating and would love to hear your feedback! Please consider this blog post one of the many ways to let us know what you think.

FxStat launched today its send invitations option that members can use to invite their own connections create an account.

The invitations can be sent via email, messenger or using the social networks. By entering the username and password, FxStat will automatically access their list of contacts and send them an invitation.

FxStat currently accepts 19 webmail services (Gmail, Yahoo Mail, HotMail, AOL and many others), messenger service like Yahoo Messenger , and 36 social networks and sharing websites (Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, Orkut, Google Buzz, Del.icio.us, Twitter, Bebo etc). Alternatively, users can upload their contacts from Outlook, Outlook Express and Thunderbird, directly upload a list of contacts exported from their email or the one they created in a text file.

The Send Invitations buttons that direct users to the Invitations page is found in the Performance, Connections and Settings> Affiliate sections. Users who will register on FxStat following an invitation will automatically be added their FxStat connections list.

Members can use the invitation option not only to expand their list of contacts, but also to promote their trading skills, especially important in the case of signal providers. If they send the invitation from Performance page, their contacts will automatically receive a link to the user’s own performance page, and not FxStat homepage.

If a member sends the invitation and attracts a new FxStat user who will start using FxStat Autotrade feature, he will receive a 10% commission from the volume traded in his connection’s account.
