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.

Fxstats is no longer just an analytical platform, but it has now come a long way from being an analytics platform to social analytics network, and that too in a very short span of time.

Fxstat now offers comprehensive social networking services to its users along with a wide range of impeccable analytical tools. The users can now add each other as a “connection” on Fxstat site and share their open trades with other members in real time.

What’s Actually New?

FXstat brings you yet another experience of exciting new features, “connections” and “My Network Trades”. The new features allow you to connect with other Fxstat members like any other social network and share your open positions in real time respectively. Previously, you could only see your own open positions in real time and add accounts to watchlist just to monitor the changes of traders performance. Now, however, the new features also enable your Fxstat social network to see your open positions in real time.

How Can You Grow Your Social Network on FXSTAT?

You can build up your social network on Fxstat by adding as many connections as you want. It works exactly like other social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace etc. When you add some one to your network, a request will be sent to the other party. If other party is willing to be a part of your network, it will accept the request. Similarly, you can also accept or reject networking requests depending upon your own preferences.

Privacy Setting

Every account owner is given the authority to specify the account to be shared with his or her network. No account will be shared automatically without owner’s permission. Multiple account holders can even share open position in more than one account with Fxstat social network. Users can always add or delete their accounts.

The Benefits You Get from the Latest Feature?

Here are some of the benefits that the latest features on Fxstat offer you.

a. “Sharing the Trades in Real Time With Your Network”.

The latest feature offered by Fxstat makes sure that the users can even see the open positions of their “connections” on their Fxstat social network “in real time”. You now have a much better access to the trading activity of your network.

b. “Sharing Knowledge and Trade Experience With Your network”

Building an Fxstat network will not only enable you to share your trading experience with others like never before, but will also help you learn a lot more from other expert traders. On the other hand, if you are an expert trader and willing to share your knowledge, it is a great opportunity to teach others (on your Fxstat network) about Forex in a better way.

c. “Socialize with other Traders”

Fxstat allows members to socialize with other traders the way other social networks such as Facebook and MySpace do. Members upload unlimited number of photos and videos on their Facebook account. They share links, photos and videos, and have discussion with other members on their friend list. Similarly, you can add unlimited accounts on Fxstat and share as many of them with other members on your network as you choose to. You can also share and discuss the trading strategies and possibilities with your network.

d. “No Spam”

You no longer need to worry about unwanted messages from unknown users. Only the users added to your Fxstat network can send you the messages. This feature empowers you to control your message box and completely eliminates spam, saving you a lot of time.

2 New languages added
We have added Italian and Spanish to our language list.
