Why should we check our trading history?
We all know that foreign exchange investment is risky, this risk is not only from the risk of the foreign exchange market itself, but more from the trading platform and broker you choose. In order to prevent shady platforms from tampering with the trading data in the back office and eventually causing problems with the final withdrawal, we should keep our trading records so that they can be used as evidence if we encounter problems later.
Therefore, authors recommend that traders should keep their trading records before each withdrawal and once every week or every two weeks.
