MBT FX Trading Performance Script

Hi guys,

this is a script for assessing performance with MBT Trading FX. It's written in Perl so most of you won't find it useful.
How it works is this: download the trade confirmations online and save them in a text file. Afterwards use the file as an input for the parser:

Quote:
usage: mbt_parser.pl: [file] [short/long] [summary] [tab sep]
short/long: detailed report or short
summary: summary line at the end of the report
tab sep: tabulator seperated or simple space

e.g.:

Quote:
mbt_parser2.pl 080306.csv 1 1 1
and the result would be something like this, although my trading is seldomly as good as this(short version).

Quote:
EUR/JPY - 160.045 160.15 -10.5
EUR/JPY - 160.165 159.875 29
GBP/JPY - 212.52 212.58 -6
GBP/JPY - 212.425 212.23 19.5
GBP/JPY - 212.91 212.95 -4
GBP/JPY + 212.95 212.96 1
GBP/JPY + 212.57 212.59 2
GBP/JPY - 212.59 212.57 2

Hope someone can find some use for it. One other note, trades should be balanced and I have found it quite useful and accurate for assessing my results.

Cheers
