This is my 1st time using a Forex platform, and MT5 just runs so smooth. I love the fact that you can set Stop Losses and Take Profit Targets, that was a huge plus for me. Other then that it’s pretty simple. I’ve actually been trading in Demo for a couple of months now, so that’s a huge plus as well for beginners, letting you get some practice in and find a strategy that works with you. Also it helps familiarize yourself with the charts and how the whole Forex market works. There is a few things that bother me but not enough to switch to another platform. 1. I’ve been struggling to find a broker to use especially as a beginner. I wish MT5 could recommend one maybe or somehow help with finding one that suits your capabilities. 2. If you set a bunch of buys/sells the system seems to freeze up sometimes. I don’t know if that’s normal on the demo side but I could see how it would be a HUGE problem if you had a lot of money down and couldn’t get out or buy in on a trade. 3. I’m not sure if they provide all the markets I’ve tried to find some like some futures and stuff like that but no luck. Even some that are provided on the app are just there to look at I guess but it cant be traded. Other then that. I really like it, and I’ll be using it for a while.

Recent updates killed the simplicity of this app. Placing buy and sell limit orders used to be fast and easy. Now the menu for orders covers the chart, has a ton of info you don’t need just absolutely clutters the screen. Right now since the recent update I haven’t been able to place any orders at all I can only buy and sell instantly for some reason. I have to contact my broker to switch to TV for a while because I can’t even trade on MT5 until this is fixed. The orders were so easy, you hit the order button and a red or blue line shows up, drag your TP, your SL, hit place order and boom. Then to modify just tap the line drag to modify and all that is ruined by a whole menu now covering the entire chart when your trying to scalp and decisions need to be made second by second but I can’t if I can’t see my candle sticks? Why go so hard on a menu for mobile when there isn’t enough space? Mobile should be simple and easy. Wow just feel like you guys potentially ruined platform.
