Signal Account Question

New comment
 
Hello~

Thank you for checking this topic！

I want to know， about a signal account，  it will read my whole trading records from the start of the account ？

Or it shows records from the time I started the account as signal ? 

I have been trading for years, and finally find a way out, now I want to start a signal account. 

But my account, I have been using for years, and  explode many many times from it was created.

Do I need to start a new account as signal account ? 

 

Thank you very much~

What do you mean?

I don't understand you.

I mean the line of account money growth, want to know , it will be tracked after the signal created, or it will also track my failed trading records of the past few years.

Whole trading hostory (past few years in your case) will be requested from the account (account trading history) - from this article:

Please note that the entire trading history is requested from your account, at which trading operations are to be tracked, in case a new signal is successfully created. The requested information will be used to display statistical data to all visitors of the Signals service.

But you can create new account with no trading history for example ...
