You can use one of the MetaTrader statement hosting services like MyFXBook.com but their coverage of different EA's is tricky and mostly does not work properly.
What I do is to load all of my closed trades into a database and use MT4Analysis to report on trades by EA. That is how I can do my weekly and monthly reports so fast.

Hi Rick
First I'd like to thank you for all of your help so far. You have saved me a lot of time and frustration.
I tried setting up the MT4Analysis by following the steps on the documentation page. Everything was going well until I needed to verify my database. I placed a copy of skeleton.db database in the db/mydb folder and renamed it "carl-demo.db". I then changed the constants.php file to the path
define('TRADE_PATH_LOCAL', '/wamp/www/db/mydb/carl-demo.db');
However, when I go to the configuration page, my database is not listed in the drop-down menu for the databases. Moreover, everything is read-only. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks
Carlos
