Yes. Linking and analysing accounts is free to use; the service is funded through broker advertising and partner arrangements rather than a subscription.

Can Myfxbook replace a gold trading journal?

Only partly. It records and verifies what the account did. It does not classify setups, tag liquidity sweeps, or preset gold session windows, so it cannot tell you which XAUUSD approach is working.

Is Myfxbook verification proof of skill?

It is proof that the trades happened on that account. It says nothing about position sizing risk, sample size or whether the results survived a different volatility regime — read the drawdown and trade count before drawing conclusions.

Can I use Myfxbook and GoldHunts on the same MT5 account?

Yes. They connect independently, so linking one does not affect the other or reset an existing verified history.

Which is better for XAUUSD specifically?

GoldHunts, for analysis: gold session splits, sweep outcomes and dollar-denominated stop distance on a 100-ounce contract. Myfxbook, for public verification of the account those trades happened on.

GOLDHUNTS VS MYFXBOOK

Myfxbook and GoldHunts are frequently compared but answer different questions. Myfxbook links a MetaTrader account through investor credentials and publishes a verifiable public record with badges, alongside widely used community tools including an aggregate sentiment outlook and an economic calendar, and it is free to use because the service is funded by broker advertising rather than subscriptions.

GoldHunts is a private, free, gold-only analysis desk. It reports XAUUSD risk in dollars of gold price on a one hundred ounce contract rather than in pips, places every trade automatically into the London window of 07:00 to 16:00 UTC or the New York window of 12:00 to 21:00 UTC, and tags entries as sweeps, continuations or reversals so a trader can see which approach actually produces the result.

The pip abstraction is the practical dividing line. A twenty pip stop on gold and a twenty pip stop on a currency pair are not comparable risks, and any report that presents them in one column encourages a false comparison, whereas gold-native reporting states the exposure in the dollars the account actually moved by. Because the two services link independently to the same MetaTrader account, running both costs nothing and neither disturbs the other.
