Introduction to MT4 on Our Platform

Our company provides the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform to traders across India. You get access to over 250 trading instruments. These include forex pairs, gold, silver, oil, indices, and cryptocurrencies. MT4 remains the global standard for retail trading. We offer three account types that run on MT4.

The Standard, Pro, and Cent accounts each have unique features. Spreads, commissions, and minimum deposits vary by account type. Indian traders can open any account after completing KYC. Below is a comparison of the three real account options.

We update spreads and leverage limits in real time. All accounts support hedging and one-click trading. You can also use automated strategies via Expert Advisors (EAs). The MT4 platform allows you to run multiple charts at once. It includes 30+ built-in indicators for market analysis.

Downloading and Installing MT4

Obtain the MT4 application from our official website or your Personal Area. Follow the steps below for your specific device type. We support Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS platforms. Each installation process takes only a few minutes. After installation, update to the latest build (1420 or higher).

For Windows Users

Log into your Personal Area on our site. Go to the Downloads section and select MT4 for Windows. Run the installer file and choose a location for the program files. Wait for the installation to finish, then launch MT4. Enter your login credentials sent via email after registration.

For macOS Users

Download the MT4.dmg file from our site. Open the disk image and drag the MT4 icon to the Applications folder. Go to System Preferences and click Open Anyway if prompted. Launch MT4 and input your account details. The platform works natively on Mac without emulators.

For Android and iOS Users

Visit the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Search for MetaTrader 4 and install the free app. Open the app and tap Manage Accounts. Select Login to an existing account and enter your server address (e.g., Exness-Real5), account number, and password.

Setting Up Your First Account

Before trading live funds, you must register and verify your identity. Our company follows strict KYC procedures to comply with regulations. Indian traders can complete this process entirely online. Verification typically takes 1–3 hours during business days. You will receive a confirmation email once approved.

Registration and KYC

Go to our official website and click Register. Enter your email and create a secure password. Select India as your country of residence. Complete your profile with your full legal name and phone number. Upload a clear photo of your Aadhaar card or passport as proof of identity.

For proof of address, use a recent utility bill or bank statement. Your name on the document must match your KYC details. Verification can take up to 24 hours during weekends. Once approved, you receive credentials via email. You can then open a real account from your Personal Area.

Account Selection and Funding

After verification, go to Open New Account in your Personal Area. Choose between Standard, Pro, or Cent based on your budget. For beginners, we recommend the Standard account with a $10 deposit. Select INR as your base currency to avoid conversion fees. Fund your account using UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe), local bank transfer, or e-wallets.

UPI deposits are credited within 5 minutes. Always enter the correct UTR number after payment. We encourage new traders to spend at least 2–3 weeks on a demo account. The demo environment mirrors live market conditions without risk. This practice helps you build confidence before trading real money.

Navigating the MT4 Interface

Once inside MT4, you see the main window divided into key sections. These include Market Watch, Navigator, Chart area, and Terminal. Familiarity with these parts is essential for efficient trading. Each section serves a specific purpose in your workflow. You can customize the layout to suit your preferences.

Charting Tools and Indicators

Right-click on any instrument in Market Watch. Select Chart Window to open a candlestick or bar chart. Use the toolbar at the top to change timeframes (M1 to MN). Click Insert then Indicators to add any of the 30+ built-in tools. You can drag indicators onto the chart and adjust their parameters.

We support custom indicators with .ex4 extension files. Place them in the Indicators folder within your MT4 data directory. Popular tools include Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, RSI, MACD, and Stochastic. Double-click any indicator to modify its settings. The platform updates charts in real time with zero delay.

Order Types and Execution

Place orders by pressing F9 or right-clicking on the chart. Select New Order to open the order window. You can choose from these order types:

• Instant Execution – fills your order at the current market price.
• Pending Orders – set specific entry levels: Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Buy Stop, Sell Stop.
• Stop Loss and Take Profit – predefine exit levels in points or price.

For active scalping, turn on One-Click Trading in Tools > Options > Trade settings. This places buy and sell buttons directly on the chart. Our platform supports zero requotes on most instruments. Execution speed averages below 40 milliseconds during normal hours.

Deposit and Withdrawal Methods for Indian Users

Our company offers several local payment options for Indian residents. All transactions are processed in INR or USD depending on your account base currency. UPI remains the most popular method due to its speed. Below is a comparison of the most common payment methods.

We require withdrawal requests to return to the same source as the deposit. For bank transfers, upload a statement matching your KYC name. Minimum withdrawal for all methods is $10 (approx INR 830). We do not charge internal fees for any transaction. Third-party processors may apply their own charges.

Managing Risk with MT4 Tools

Risk management is essential for long-term trading success. MT4 includes several native features to help you control exposure. Use these tools consistently to protect your capital. Our platform makes risk settings easy to configure. Always plan your trades before entering the market.

Stop Loss and Take Profit

Always set a stop loss (SL) when entering a trade. Right-click on an open position and select Modify or Delete Order. Enter the SL price in the field provided. Take profit (TP) works the same way. You can also drag SL and TP lines directly on the chart.

For trailing stops, use the Trailing Stop option under the Trade tab. This moves your stop loss automatically as the price moves in your favor. We recommend setting SL at a maximum of 2% of your account balance per trade. This approach helps you survive losing streaks. Adjust these values based on your trading strategy.

Leverage Adjustments

Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. In your Personal Area, you can adjust leverage between 1:1 and 1:2000. For Indian traders, we suggest starting with 1:100 to manage volatility. To change leverage, go to Account Management and select Leverage. The new value takes effect immediately after confirmation.
