Thread: Trading Platform

It is obvious that we all love Mt4 and have been trading for life time with that, but now things are starting to change and we need every detail and updates, it is not possible in Mt4, therefore I have chosen to trade with cTrader, it is one of the finest trading platforms ever by OctaFX broker. cTrader is basically develop for ECN trading that get rid of any risk of desk dealing, so we are directly connected to global banks making our trade executed instantly.

For trading, MT4 still be the best choice for me. It is also easier to understand. And i think, there are many traders who use this platform too. And as a trader, we must try to more understand market movement too. Try to use demo account as well as possible to get more maximal result in forex.

FX trading has seen many trading platforms in the recent times, which are available in the market for many traders, But the basic in the Forex Market is MT4 Platform and people are still using that technology in the market and even the latest brokers of the Forex Market are using the Platform to achieve easy trading.

Online forex trading requires the same things from a trading platform that are required for trading any other type of security. The platform must act as a go-between for the retail forex broker and the forex trader. Platforms must also provide real-time and historical data to the trader and provide the him or her with access to all of the types of orders that need to be available to trade forex efficiently

Some factors to consider when looking for forex software are:

• Is it free? If there is a nominal charge, what additional features are made available?
• What technical indicators are available in the charting component?
• Is the software Windows, Mac or internet (Java or HTML) based?
• Can you trade from the charts?
• What is the order interface? What types of orders are available?
• Is historical data made available through the software?
• Does the platform allow for backtesting of strategies?

MT4 has been the pioneer in the Forex Market to provide Software and trading platforms, so Meta trader has been the best one for most of the traders and brokers, these days brokers are also coming up with customized sort of Software.

You are spot on mate ever since I have done trading Mt4 has been the pillar of trading as this is the most used platform but you know time Is changing and now we must go with updated things and at the moment cTrader is one of the latest platform in Forex world. It is provided by the most respected broker OctaFX, it is a platform especially built and design for ECN trading and gives us complete control over the way we trade.

MT4 is definitely the best one and mostly used by the brokers in the market, so it's good to have that. Also brokers like FBS Markets offers range of platforms.

When it’s about Forex trading one has to make sure he uses the best trading platform or else he can face big issues and I only prefer Mt4 it’s one of the best platform to use because of been very simple. I trade with Nova FX and using this platform with them is like a cherry on the cake with super smooth and never has I to face re-quotes or any type of trouble because of lovely service that they provide to all clients.

Trading platform that is used now many could be used. I own now using the MT4 platform. I now use it in TICKMILL brokers who have a fast server speeds. before doing trade, I advise you to see a video tutorial on the basic principle of forex. Tickmill’ Forex Trading Video Tutorial contains hours of video dedicated to multiple Forex aspects you need to become a more knowledgeable trader.
